That squirrel is nuts..pun intended

There is a squirrel who hangs out on the street all the time. It is probably because it is in the sun and warmer than the surrounding areas. I am surprised it is still alive honestly because I have come close to hitting it a few times. I usually give it a blast on the horn to hopefully scare it off the street. The other day..I saw a truck that was delayed because of its antics. I am hoping that as the weather heats up the street will become a less attractive place to hang out..if he makes that long .sigh!

They hang around enough. I have one that comes up on the porch everyday. He would love to be invited in.

@Ineeddentures I don't try to feed it I don't consider it to be a pet.

One squirrel here who was kind of a pet met his maker on the road. It has since been replaced by another though .

@Traceyjayne I don't want to turn it into a real pet. It would probably try to come inside, and I don't want a squirrel running around in here

@snowy22315 my Mom used to have a squirrel that came to the garden every day ….at first it would sit on the fence and look into the kitchen until Mom took food out for her. Then as she got braver she would come and sit on the kitchen door step and wait for food. Mom called her Charlie.

Silly little squirrel, I hope also the other drivers take care not to hurt it.

I don't think anybody would hit it on purpose..but they are always neurotically zig zagging around when a car approaches.

@snowy22315 - That is the problem, sometimes they zoom in front of your car.

Maybe he has nine lives and is busy using up a few of them.

I am afraid he will pay with this foolishness with his life.

I’m glad the truck was respectful enough to try not to hit it.
