Morning Squirrel Sentry

The early bird may get the worm, but—much to Roscoe’s disappointment—the morning squirrel sentry does not get his rodent.

Our readers have probably noticed a slight interest in squirrels from our Dear Roscoe P. Maybe “interest” isn’t a strong enough word. Let’s call it an obsession. In this case, our morning squirrel sentry is searching for any possible slip-up by the tree rats, but, alas, Roscoe is learning the early bird may get the worm, but the early canine does not get the squirrel. At least not this time.

    Lulu: “Well you know what they say. Give a squirrel an inch and it’ll take an acorn. Or, um, something like that.”

    Roscoe has squirrels and Ruby has feral cats.. She is outside making believe she is watching the snow come down, but really looking into the woods for the evil cat(s). We do know a Husky will kill what they catch.

    Oh Roscoe-I think it’s terrible those squirrels don’t at least TRY and just come down the trees a LITTLE to get your brain MORE excited-lol!
