    I wouldn't roll out the welcome mat for him - you might regret it. They will chew thru just about anything if they can get to it - like insulation under your house, telephone, cable or electric lines - just to name a few. We had problems with chipmunks some years ago - got under the house and chewed thru the flex line for the air conditioning. They're cute - but destructive!

    And I wanted to add, if "he's" huge - maybe he's a pregnant mama, you never know! They all do kinda waddle anyway ...

    We have a happy little family of chipmunks too. They live under the back step.

    I have a cement basement and all our wires are off the ground, so no fear of him/her damaging them.

    We had a ground hog a couple years ago. Allen tried to chase it down ..... you should have seen waddling cat following waddling hog. I have no idea what happened to ground hog #1. It just stopped living in our yard.

    They will dig holes in the ground, all over your yard.

    I think they are CUTE!

    When I lived in Maine, most folks would go out and shoot them to get rid of them.
