Squirrels, Moss, and Sticks.

Okay, you see this? Do you know what this is? It's called a squirrel.


Do you know what squirrels are? Squirrels are evil. They're almost as evil as cats! One day, I'm going to catch one and teach it a lesson it will never forget!

There are a number of reasons why squirrels are evil...

1. They chatter insults down at us from their trees. And when we dogs bark back up at them, they chatter more insults back down at us.

2. Every time my humans plant a garden, the squirrels eat the plants before they grow! It makes my humans angry. (Mind you, if the squirrels didn't eat the plants, I probably would instead...)

3. Squirrels have a way of making us dogs really angry. They let us chase them, but they always stay just out of reach. And then they climb up a tree, and start laughing and chattering insults back down at us, which leads us to reason number one again of why squirrels are evil.

Now guess what the squirrels are doing? They're throwing moss at me! We have this huge Maple tree covering our whole front yard, and the squirrels go up and peel off the moss and throw clumps of it down on the ground. They're either searching for bugs under the moss, or else they're trying to kill me by throwing the moss down at me! Okay, moss doesn't actually hurt that much when it falls, but it still angers me to see the squirrels doing this. There also seems to be a bunch of sticks on the ground, which my humans say fell out of the tree during windstorms, but I say the squirrels threw them down, too!

Look at this stick I found on the ground. It's huge!

Maybe by chewing up this big stick, the squirrels will get the message of what I'll do to them once I catch them!

Mmmm, tasty stick!

My #1 reason squirrels are evil...they won't let me catch them!! I've been trying for years.

Care with that stick, little dude. It's as big as you!

Ooh the squirrels sure are evil. Their chatters sure sound real annoying.

Whoa, that's a big stick you've got there Sparky!

Lola Smiles said...

:) Yo Sparky! I don't mean to brag but I have caught a squirrel here & there. Drives my mom totally nuts! The secret is to have lots of snow on the ground. They can't run as fast! ;0

I dislike them big time. My mom thinks they're cute though! Whatever!

oh, btw, she wanted me to tell you she has 2 CANON cameras, a Rebel XTI and a little point & shoot camera!

luv ya,
Lola Smiles

Sparky!

Thanks for stopping by to say hi! Okay man, I've never seen a squirrel with my own nose yet, but now that I know what they look like, I will keep my nostrils open and my eyes peeled! If I ever see one of those here in the desert I will hunt it down, then send it to you to dipose of in any manner that you see fit. Perhaps you could take care of it infront of the other squirrels so they see that you mean business, and that you aren't one to fool around with!

Muahahaha!

Chase on my friend! Chase on!

Slurp!

Hi Sparky
We have possums where we live rather than squirrels and they are not evil tho I think they might scratch if they were frightened. The possums usually only come out at night when I'm inside.
Hopefully the squirrels will get your meaning when you chew the sticks they throw down.
Hope you and Lizzie have a lovely time together over Easter. We will be thinking of you.
Love from Hammer

Fred said...

I likes to chase squirrels in my sleep! heehee (And by the way, I like your new haircut.)

Gudrun said...

Hi Sparky!

Oh yes, I know all about the evilness of squirrels, especially the part about them laughing & chattering! I have to admit though that it's fun to watch my mom chatter right back at them, hands on her hips, making a clicking noise with her tongue. The squirrels don't understand her and the neighbors laugh at her. Those squirrels are slowly driving my mom insane!

Hazel Bridges said...

Hi Sparky

Please don't say squirrels too loudly 'cos my friend Flo with go barktastic bannanas!!!!

She hates them with a passion that is awesome to behold, I don't think she's ever caught one but if she did it would be definitely be squirrel burger all round.

Have a good weekend.

Charlie Boy

P.S. no more aliens to report.

Amber said...

Hey Sparky, I'm sure the squirrel are hard to catch. I saw them once, and they disappeared in seconds. That stick can be helpful, you know to catch some squirrels..
happy easter!!

Mary-Margaret O'Brien said...

Dog oh dog! I sure missed you. Glad to see you back again. Your humans sure have a nice green lawn. You must live someplace back East.

Love, Mary-Margaret

PS - I pretty much get along with squirrels, ground hogs and chipmunks, but I just stay away from discussing things like pawlitics and religion. I think they're pretty much agnostic, and definitly probably more "Green Peace" party than Republican.

Casper and pals said...

Hey Sparky, have you been over to Ivy's blog? It's called "Squirrels are Evil". Maybe you need to report your evil squirrel to Ivy at http://ivypaws.blogspot.com/

Maya and Kena said...

Hey Sparky!!
You are totally right!! Squirrels are EVIL!! Just the other day, we were on our walk and one squirrel ran across the street, and we went crazy. Our humans wouldn't let us off the leash and so we couldn't get it, and it was throwing insults at us, like you said!! Ugghhh... squirrels are mean little buggers!
Wags and licks,
Maya and Kena

Ashley said...

Max LOVES to chase the squirrels! He has never been able to catch one though. Best of luck!

Sorry we haven't written in a while. Max has been under the weather.
