The Second Pet Of Christmas

Nothing says 'Christmas At Our House' quite like the arrival of the Angry Christmas Squirrel.

  1. Damn squirrels. They have no sense of humor whatsoever.

  2. I think some of his relatives live around here. They eat our bird food and scare our cats. If I could only figure out how to use my husbands shotgun...

  3. ...and nothing says "relief" like his departure.

    Interestingly enough, there's an ongoing discussion at Wiping The Crazy Off My Face that involves squirrels.

  5. I am snickering as I catch up on your posts. I particularly enjoyed your commentary on that giant brown bag-dress.

    (I myself like the wee squirrels.)

  7. Squirrels freak me out! I actually left a chick's bed some years ago because she left the window open and a squirrel was on the window sill. I wanted it closed and she said she like him to come in from time to time. I threw my trousers on and split, toot sweet!

    We don't have squirrels in Hawaii. So come on down all you squirrel haters!

    Because no one ever thought, "what is missing in paradise, could it be a squirrel?" And none apparently sneaked on to a boat. Every once in a while something shows up, like a possum that had gotten into a cargo ship, and they killed it. They've never had rabies in Hawaii so they are VERY sensitive about non-native species in the islands.
    Aloha,

  11. I have nothing against squirrels- although I must admit I don't spend a lot of time in their company. It's possible they are red neck hicks who tell bad jokes.

  12. eileen, we have tons outside my building. Sometimes I think they're going to jump off a tree and on to my neck. But they're still cute.

  14. Squirrel - it's what's for dinner.

    Squirrel - the other fuzzy meat.

    Squirrel - it's not just for breakfast anymore.

  15. I like squirrels too, even though my friends insist they are rats with fuzzy tails.
