Squirrels attack!

Actually, Paper Dragon first told me about this site two months ago. I have watched and read since then, for what it's worth.

The next pro team to call Sacramento home should be called the Squirrels.

 

Had that happen too before I replaced our chimney cover.

Our furnace flue is exposed to the elements and once in a blue moon I'll hear scratching inside there. Once a raccoon or squirrel kicked some loose mortar into the flue and managed to knock one of the iron venting doors open down in the basement. Alas, if any critters manage to fall in there, they'll meet an ashy, fiery end. Blech.

 

Well, mine apparently met a gasping, scary end. Oh well, same result. I actually looked at the back of Critter Control dude's truck and he had a bunch of cages in there. Guess that's where he puts the LIVE animals he gets. Seriously, people do this for a living!

 

Here you go. Read this and prepare to become queasy.

Yikes.

 

I think this one is in my garage right now. I don't have the balls to go down there at the moment to see what's making all the racket. I'm tired and my reflexes are down and if it attacks, this may be my last post.

 

Bring weapons!

 

Has nobody told the squirrel community about the side effects of steroids?

 

Obviously, nobody has told them steroids make your nuts shrink.

 

At least one of them got the message.
