Do NOT mess with squirrels.

LOLOL

Tree rats are fun to watch but they can be nasty. When I lived in New England we had both the little Reds and the Grays. The grays were much larger and much more aggresive. They were the ones who raided the bird feeders and made such a mess of things. They had a tendancy to end up in the pot.

The reds on the other hand were much smaller and much quieter. They kept away from us and were rarely seen.

My favorite critters though were the Chipmunks. These little buggers were small and quite timid. everything attacked them. We started feeding them and after a short time they became acclimated to my wife and myself. They started hanging around and I built them some habitats where they started hiding. They got to the point where they would see us and would attack us looking for treats. We're talking we would go out into the back yard to have dinner at the picnic table and we would have to bring things like nuts to feed them. We would have between five and ten of them swarming around the table and climbing into our laps for a snack. They would allow us to scratch them and several of them seemed to enjoy it.

Cute little buggers.

Cat
 
In the park, near my house, there are a number of squirrels. They seem like friendly, innocent little guys. There's a tennis court area with two courts and surrounded by chain link fence. Some people use the park and bring their large, aggressive boxer type dog. If no one is using the tennis court, they turn the dog loose inside the chain link. The squirrel quickly determined that the dog couldn't get at him when the squirrel is outside the chain link.

Now, when the dog runs inside the chain link, the squirrel poses outside the chain link, under a bush. The dog can see and smell the squirrel, but the dog's owners can't see the squirrel. The squirrel baits the dog, as the dog goes nuts. When the people come over to see what the trouble is, the squirrel disappears down its burrow, under an evergreen bush. You have to see it, but the squirrel communicates, 'fuck you, dog' just before the squirrel disappears. It's funny as hell, unless you're the dog.
 
I have squirrels that steal the sunflower seeds from the bird feeder. Most of them have very scraggly tails. It's like they're not even trying any more to convince me they're not just rats with fluffy tails.
 
I have never seen a squirrel in my life but have always wanted to. I am a mad fan of all rodents and I think they are so cool. I loved the squirrel battle photos (those squirrels got to represent!)and the shot of Liar with his old crew.
 
Don't let their rodent status fool you, either. Squirrels are vicious. My full grown cat thought he was ballsy enough to take on a squirrel. He came back with a nice big chunk chewed out of his chest. It got infected and made him sick, so I had to rush him to the vet. Ever since then, we always say that the squirrel from hell lives in that big oak tree of his. xD

Bumma about your cat. Pat him for me. I think it's like kangaroos. Most people outside Australia don't know that they can be vicious too as can wombats. Even the bird life can be antsy over here. We have a type of magpie that swoop and attack people during their breeding season. The other day the police were forced to shoot two that were terrorizing people at a local caravan (trailer) park. They are a real menace and have been known to take out people's eyes. One of the more hilarious consequences are that people during the breeding season often run around with bike helmets on with eyes painted on them. The birds don't swoop if you are staring at them.

The peoples breeding season or the birds breeding season? :D

Here in the US crows will do the same thing if you get to close to a nesting site. Mockingbirds will attack (Divebomb) cats for the same reason.
 
One of the funniest things I ever saw was in San Diego during boot camp - while standing in formation I watched a group of birds harass a cat; the cat would charge them and they'd fly off, as he turned his back and and stalked away in a huff, tail twitching, they'd fly right back up to him and peck him on the ass - he'd turn and charge and they'd fly off again, no doubt laughing their feathered asses off.

It took that poor cat like Twenty minutes to get off the open grinder and under cover while doing his level best to maintain some semblance of catly dignity.
 
In areas where rabbits are scarce and squirrels are plentiful, falconers will use their redtails to go rodent-hawking. It's a lot more even match than you might guess. Squirrels bite like Hell and have been known to take the toes off of the big hawks. The guys and gals have even had to design 'squirrel chaps' to put on their birds feet to protect them. :eek::eek:

Sorry. Magpie breeding season. The magpies don't really seem to go after cat, but prefer humans. Ornithologists did a study on them and found that it was nothing to do with protecting nesting sites, but a show of bravado on the part of the males designed to impress the females.

In the park, near where I live, basically the only thing the squirrels are really afraid of is the big, wild hawks. The hawks mainly just prey on the baby squirrels, in the spring. I wondered why the hawks don't try to snag squirrels all year long. Now, maybe I know.

In my back lot today I saw a hawk stoop on three or four squirrels, on the first one the Hawk made several passes, in almost every case, when the hawk approached the Squirrel jumped up, six-eight inches off the ground , I suppose growling and snapping his teeth and the hawk couldn't get a grip with his talons. Score: Squirrels 4, Hawk 0.

The Red Squirrels and the Grey ones did the same thing but the Greys are a good bit bigger.
