No food aid for the squirrels.

My friend tossed out an older box of Cheerios for her squirrels. And now Oliver her golden Pyrenees pup and Dunc the chunk are hoovering her yard two furry fat heads.
Thing is my long eared galoot would not eat Cheerios if he was offered a bite.

They eat them begrudgingly...

Poor things, no peanuts or seed for two weeks or more, I feel bad. But human food is first on the list, then the damn cats... (who can go outside and help with the chipmunk population)

Soon, soon...I tell them
