I like squirrels (my husband’s Granny, from England, called them ‘Squee-rels’).

But they can become very bold and aggressive if they are used to being fed and then at some point the food is not forthcoming...

Be careful: it’s very unlikely, but *possible*, that a squirrel can carry rabies: I learned this when I encountered one who ‘bit the hand that fed him’ :-)

So squirrels can develop a deadly sense of entitlement. Hmmm...

Mark Steyn calls them squeer-els , too. Cracks me up.
