He's no Rocky, Bullwinkle!

Every year we get at least one flying squirrel in the house. This year we had four - all in the same week! Our two cats, Fred and Ginger, were on the scene immediately, which was a great advantage to Number One and his "Squirrelanator 2000.1" whacking device. They kept it cornered and immobilized until back-up arrived.

The first varmint was discovered by Trink when it ran across her face while she was stuck under her bed. Poor thing, she screamed like a little girl, which made everyone else's blood run cold! Number One ran in to the rescue and the rodent attempted to climb up his camoflaged pants (he did not scream like a little girl - I'm so proud!) He quickly grabbbed a piece of PVC and let the little rat have it!

The "Squirrelanator 2000.1" now has four marks on it.
