I know! They are so cute! I love the critters. They can be really loud with that hissy/squawk. Fatty sits up in the tree and glowers down at us--squawking. We always tell him to calm down--we know it''s his yard after all.I leave almonds out for him--he''s quite a fixture over here--albeit a crazy and demanding one!
Oh precious!! I knew someone years ago who had a pet squirrel, he was a little so and so! I would love to see some peetures of Fatty Coaties!! Where I live there is a tree line near my fields, sometimes I can be out there picking up horse poo, minding my own business - only to get cursed at by some irate squirrel - I end up doing it back to him....EEEEEH!
Oooh I would love to see the pic of Fatty please!!Date: 9/13/2008 12:42:31 PM

They are cute outside, but once they figure out how to get in - not so much.
The first flying squirrel that got in we caught and fed nuts and let it go.
The kids named him Nutty the Flying Squirrel.
Wouldn''t you know it - back in a an hour for more cashews!
Then we learned that you need to relocate them.
We didn''t know that our house was the designated National Convention center for flying squirrels, but after relocating 12 of them, apparently it is. And Flying squirrels are nocturnal, so this all happens in the middle of the night. And they can jump up, down , side to side - you never know what they are going to do. The worst was when I once opened the cupboard, and one poped out. I wish I was jokong!

He is adorable. Maybe you should rename him Rock the flying squirrel, after Rocky and Bullwinkle
OMG, he looks like a little superhero! Da da-da DAAAAA!Date: 9/13/2008 1:06:29 PM

Ellen, I totallly understand about your oriental rugs . . . you definitely need a serious doormat outside to keep stuff from getting tracked all over them I guess! How about this: totally do away with your doormat and get a Scrusher: http://www.scrusher.com/ (I love their little motto: ''You can stop it all with a Scrusher!'' Even squirrel pee?!?! LOL!)
We have a few squirrels around our house. There''s one in particular who likes to walk across the top edge of our fence while our three dogs are outside so he can torment them! He walks back and forth up there and mouths off, while the dogs are all trying unsuccessfully to reach him! If they happen to go outside at a time when he''s on the ground, they try to chase him, but he''s WAAAAAY too fast for them! LOL!
Also, our local squirrels seem to think that our yard is THE PLACE to bury their peanuts! I can''t even tell you how many peanuts we''ve found buried in our flower bed . . . yes, the one where Woodrow likes to poop! If I were the squirrels, I would rethink my favorite peanut burying spot!
OK, you guys are making me laugh so hard that I''m about to pee . . . on the couch!!! I wonder how DH would deal with that?!?! Probably post on his bass boat message board, asking how to get wife pee out of your couch! LOL!
Ellen, I love Scrushers! They really do work! I''ve been a horse person all my life, and most barns have them. I''ve been thinking about getting one for the house since DH often has gunk on his work boots when he gets home and he doesn''t seem to be very good at using the doormat!Date: 9/13/2008 2:34:34 PM

And thank you for the link! WHY have I never heard of this thing?? I needed this like, decades ago.
Holly, lol. Think I could train him? Like, just keep inching the mat towards their house?
I bet! My middle one mows lawns, comes in with grass all over his shoes, even though I''ve repeatedly asked him to take his shoes off in the garage (he has managed to leave them in the kichen). This would be perfect, along with all the other misc. stuff 4 men can track in. I''m getting one!Date: 9/13/2008 2:43:58 PM
