Cameras can sometimes be a deterrant, and the ones you can see through an app on your phone can quickly reassure you that a sound was just a possum. Or can let you know if there's anyone sus outside, giving you the jump to get out the back door and/or call the cops.

Give yourself a break. You've been through a shaking experience and don't need to beat yourself up about your reactions
