Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 > Hey you lot eating squirrels - watch out!! I live in a 300 year old cottage, and guess what it's called - 'Squirrel Cottage' - I look after my little squirrels here and nobody's going to eat them!. > > Luv - Sheila no one shall eat my squirrels either! My son says I am part of the ecological system here and our well fed squirrels can be mistaken for small bears..LOL! They don't even take any sass from my Poms...they all sit together eating in the same yard and peacefully coexist...the squirrels, birds, bunnies, ducks, chipmunks and my pups..the night crew are possums and racoons who come for apples, leftovers and peanut butter sandwiches. When the baby squirrels are ready to leave the nest, their mamas bring them here in the early AM's and leave them until nightfall for a couple of weeks, picking them up after supper each day ...they know the babes are safe and fed and watered until they can get acclamated to solitary living. My sister says it's like a disney cartoon here...they are all so clean and sweet and friendly. Over the years, I've taken in several feral mama cats and their kittens and gotten them all to no-kill shleters...this is a process that takes months getting them to trust me and for them to come regularly enough for me to get the female trappers I know to capture and transport them. I am so against people who dont' spay or neuter their cats and then the poor females get pg out here in the coldest of winters or hot summers and the big fat papa goes back into his home and is comfy... the neighbors don't always like me feeding the feral cats, but I felt it was all I could do in order to assure they wouldn't keep procreating and filling our yards with ferals...finally it seems there are no more coming..thank heavens! It cost us a bundle in cat food and trapping fees and donations to get them all out of here. And I am so allergic to cats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to learn all that you know. I live in the country filled with wonderful habitat all around me. Had a " pet " blue heron that visited us each day...hasn't been around...wonder if he is dead? We have quail families crossing our back yard, pheasants, squirrels galore and a rabbit family under our large pine tree in the front yard. There has to be 10 of them in there. I wouldn't harm a one of them honest. Anyway...what is a pom? Hugs..and keep up the good work...Patti Sue Re: Squirrels, et al > Hey you lot eating squirrels - watch out!!

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Whew - no one has asked about Rocky Mountain Oysters. Louise PS I love biscuits with butter only - not with gravy. Years ago this restaurant served corn fritters - yum. I'll take Mexican food over Southern. Tacos, bean burritos smothered in hot green chili, tostadas, chile rellenos, sopapillas, enchiladas etc. Last post here on this subject Will check out the coffee house.
