Subject: RE: BS: Feeding Squirrels--Pro/Con?
Bret,
Okay, friendly? Yeah, the rat wins...
But now entertainin'... I'll still take the squirrel... Mine would get on top of my head and crack nuts and eat... No, not my head, dang it. Other nuts...
Now as fir bathroom habits, yer squirrels must not have been raised is infants. Mine was. I found him when he was only about2 inches long and used an eyedropper to feed him... He didn't know of "bad squirrel bathroom habits" because he didn't know any other squirrels... He was definately newpaper trained... And he was as friendly as a nervous critter can be... I'd go fir walks with him and he would run around outside but always come back... Sniff... Wish I still had that squirrel...
Maybe that's why I like to take care of them when it freezes up... But don't expect me to drive down into the alley's in D.C. with table scraps fir them rats... Won't happen...
