Theo

So here is the story on Theodore.

Now I have to tell you I am all about the circle of life. Things get eaten and that's the way it is. So when my cat Blueberry, the huntress that she is, shows up at the door holding a dead mouse or chipmunk I pet her and call her a good kitty.

Well, the secretary at the station evidently has much more of a heart than I do (dern liberals). She "saved" a baby squirrel from what she considered to be an untimely death by her cat. So guess which policeman volunteered to bring young Theodore home? Yep, my policeman.


Abbie is posing here with what I consider a perfectly nice rodent pet. The "ZuZu Pet". She is also posing with a functioning book light. She says those are pretty rare and it warranted a picture. Okay.

Everyone loves him. I personally think we would be setting traps and putting out poison just like we do for mice if it didn't have that poofy little tail. Blasted poofiness.

That picture of Matt made me tear up.

Thank you for sharing Theo with us. And yes, a functioning book light is rare around here!

No guessing now what sex Theo is!

Yeah, that picture didn't leave much to the imagination, did it? Nothing like a little squirrel porn.

LOL! Totally reminds me of the one we saved as a kid... it was so sweet and cuddly - and I totally think you're right. It's all about the fluffy tail.

Wow...I would have never noticed the Squirrel porn if it weren't for Mama Hen. Who knew that she of all people would ever darken my mind like that? :)
