Welcome puppers and kittehs
Gather around, and I will teach you the fine art of how to
Safely Hunt Tree Rats
Furst:
You need the proper equipment.
If you encounter the
Clemons Sciurus
(Roger Clemons of Squirrels)
I recommend this most FABulous Hard Hat
Butts you might also encounter
Bazooka Sciurus
(Militant Squirrels with issues)
With this guy, you might also need one of these....
My personally designed Acorn Shield
Now, there are those pesky tree rats that will try and distract you
Don't Fall for It!!!!!
Here's some examples....
yeah, don't be fooled by cuteness!
Or Cirque du Soleil stunts!
Or Scary Halloweenie masks!
Recently, I have encountered these dudes/dudettes....
They will do anythings to get your attention away from your
Tree Rat Huntin' .....
Stay vigilant!!!
Keep your eye on the furry tail!!!
One last thingie....
Don't let these two keep you from your duties
HOLY CRAP!!
I didn't need to see that!!!
Put those away mister!!!
(Sorry puppers and kittehs,
these tree rats have no shame!)
And, for Dogs Sake, don't let this one's
Interpretive Dance numbers
keep you from doin' your job!!!!
So, keep stealthy
keep Limber
And, tell those tree rats that you're gonna ...
♪♫ Shake em' like a Polaroid Picture! ♪♫

SAFELY Rid Your Yardie of those
PESKY TREE RATS ~

Put your paws up

BEST.POST.EVER!
ReplyDeleteGood tips Ruby. We're on high alert now after our great catch the other night. We think we have them worried and they may make mistakes. If they do, we're ready.
ReplyDeleteFudge and the Portie Pack
Distraction is their best tool
ReplyDeleteHey Ruby!
ReplyDeleteWow, this had me chuckling from top to bottom! BWAR HAR HAR Excellent post for today. So entertaining and helpful too. I never thought to protect my melon before. I gotta ask Dad for a hardhat right away. OMD this was great! Thanks so much for hosting this, my furiend.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, Police Commish
OMD, that was the most informative talk on tree rat huntin', your examples have the mom ROFL, may have to send over Dogtor Lassie to recusitate. we keep trying to pick her up but she keeps falling down laughing ... maybe she started on those 87 margaritas already ... thanks for that Ruby, you are best gurrlfriend
ReplyDeleteThat was a fake and was easy to spot. Clemens is right-handed and that fake is a southpaw. No danger, go get him.
ReplyDeleteGood one Ruby, can see your always on duty. BUT hope none of those tree creeping little varmints are called Sid... Luv's Cat Flap Cavalier, Sid is all mine.... X
DeleteOMDs Ruby mom was trying to read all the info to me but she starting leaking from the eyes, snorting like a pig and THEN she fell and could not get up...I was about to perform CPR....then she told me she was okey dokey fine all the commotion was caused by laughter no an emergency. You have literally cracked us up today. Bless your heart the research alone must have taken eons then you had photos. We have the cute kind here the do somersaults, hang upside down from things and the dummies climb up our bird feeder poles right into the barrel shaped squirrel baffle...then they bang their heads around int he baffle back down then starting acting like drunken sailors on shore leave. Yep they think they are cute...Bravo bravo standing ovation from your BFFF
ReplyDeleteMadi and her Mom
Wow Miss Ruby - you are the squirrel expert extraordinaire !!!!!!!!! You would think at MY park we would see them all time but we rarely do - Mom says there isn't many of around here as the rednecks hunt and eat them - erk !
ReplyDeleteOMD Ruby, you are a PRO!!! We sure do miss bttling the squirrel population...you'd think with all the redwoods around here we would have a squirrel or two!!
ReplyDeleteSmileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
I think I have seen some of those squirrels around here!
ReplyDeleteBOL Ruby!!! That was a very informative yet HILARIOUS post! OMD...did you see the squirrels nuts?!? No, not THAT photo...most times tree rats are protecting their stash of nuts and stuffs. You dirty-minded girl....BOL
ReplyDeleteOz
Oh boy get my margarita glass cold cause Ruby I found the tree rat NEST on my peep's pergola! Oh you shoulda been there Ruby when my peep got the broom and sent that squirrel running. Then he got rid of that nasty mess of nest. Where did you get the hard hat, that's what I needed during the nest clearing! Your pal, Toby
ReplyDeleteLike Downunder Daisy once said we got to crack those squirrels nuts. And Holy Crap that one tree rat has some nuts to crack!
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
OMD Ruby, thank you so much for this super informative post! Tree rats are serious business (so I have NO IDEA why my Momma is taking it so unseriously and laughing the way she is!) and this post is JUST what Blogville needed to point it all out proper!
ReplyDeleteIf this is what we do to capture the rats, we' re in

If my peeps would only let me off leash more, I could get rid of the tree rat problem. Hailey
ReplyDeleteCrikey Ruby ..... I'm coming to join you once I recover. I sure need a Margarita (or 87) after that. I fell off the bed laughing. think I've done myself an injury!!!
ReplyDeleteOh Ruby, we got this information just in time. We don't have many around here cuz we don't have many trees cuz the houses aren't real old. BUTT dad saw a tree rat just yesterday in our yard!! He ran off but we know he will be back!!
ReplyDeleteYour pals,

Ruby Duby Du!!! I bow to you, that was the most pawsome informational post like EVER in history!! Oh Ruby, you have some scary and crazy squirrels around you. I can see why you have to be on your paws all the time. You deserve a "Rita" after a day of protecting your family from the evil that is all around you. I shudder to think of what is hiding in my back woods. I will keep my eyes open and check back with you if I need help. Now how about those "rita's" ? I like mine with strawberry please. I have also built up a tolerance so no worries on my getting sick. Thank you for spreading the word and teaching us all this impawtant stuff.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
Holy cr@p!! We've NEVER been more relieved NOT to have tree rats where we live than after reading this post! They are VICIOUS...and ARMED...and TRICKSY!!
ReplyDeleteWOW, you are one tough chick Ruby!

Top Tips pal

Pees: sorry we are late, but a double post and all those rides have put us behind!
Woohoo! Great post Ruby! We are tree rat haters too so your post just fired us all up more!
ReplyDeleteMarty and the Gang
My boys typically ignore those pesky tree rats. I had them read this post and take notes though, just so they know what to watch for if they ever decide to chase them in the future. Thanks for the excellent information, the chi's learned a lot.
ReplyDeleteThis is SUCH good advice! Now tell me, what advice do you have if, after catching your tree rat and starting your Polaroid shake, your human starts screaming and shrieking and shouting "No, Casey, leave it! Leave it!!!"
ReplyDeleteBOL! Oh, Ruby, you have the FiveSibes and I laughing and rolling here! Our Bandit she is a good tree rat hunter so I told her all about your safety tips and to beware of the "two things" and the dancin' distractions! Our Harley has been known to have a tree rat severed tail (yep, her and two others had a little fun with a tree rat here and she ran off with the tail). So while staring right at us, with the fuzzy tail just a danglin' from her mouth...while we were sreaming "drop it! Drop it!" She looked right at us and GULP, swallowed that darn tree rat's tail whole. Yuck!!! Needless to say, we did NOT kiss that Husky for a long time. And, she did get some mouthwash swished around by my daughter! Then there was the time the Huskies played tug-o-war with one and the poor thing was screaming (we did not even know they could do that!) so my daughter and hubby scooped it up and and brought it over to the vet's. Our hunters were not happy about that. So your advice is getting pinned right up where they sleep! Thanks for all the tips! (I may have nightmares at that "two things" shot though....)!!!
ReplyDeleteI needed a giggle! Too cute
ReplyDeletePlenty of us had dreams about uncovering vast vaults of gold and riches when we were young, but the truth of the matter is that while these dreams were a little far-fetched, the reality proves to be even more intriguing. Click here to investigate
ReplyDeleteIf you plan on hunting whitetail deer with a bow, skilled hunters recommend doing it from a tree stand because it is a lot more effective compared to hunting from ground level. Check that
ReplyDeletei read a considerable measure of stuff and i found that the method for composing to clearifing that precisely need to say was great so i am inspired and ilike to come back again in future.. Minerva-intra flowmeters
