Oh my gosh, this is a funny topic, really. My dad HATES squirrels. His last house, he would sit in his bedroom, window open and aim and fire at them. He lived in the country at the time.


When I was in my early teens, my Dad actually caught a grey and white squirrel that was feeding at the bird feeder. Just snuck up on it, grabbed it (he had leather work gloves on), and stuffed it into a cage. Later built a bigger, better cage with a squirrel-sized exercise wheel, and named it Peter 🤣. They kept her as a pet till her death, long after I had left home. (Yes, Peter turned out to be a girl....)
