Tiny's Threat Level is Red

I don't know if you have noticed, but squirrels don't like to take chances. We scare easily. Any strange movement and before you know it we're half way up a tree.

When in doubt of the danger, our best defense is to freeze...

If we see that there's nothing to fear, we go about our business. If we think maybe that we see something that might try to eat us we start to cluck to warn other squirrels. I'm not sure why when I try to warn my people of the dangers that cats pose they just look at me like I'm crazy...



To not draw too much attention and still alert our friends, sometimes we silence the cluck and flap our tail like it's on fire...



If we actually catch sight of something scary, we go into the full blown Screaming Mimi's...



We will stay like this until long after whatever it was that scared us has gone away. Once we feel it's super duper safe, we go about our normal business.

After all that, I'm usually pretty hungry.
