I find squirrels inherently amusing, because I should get out more, so I was tickled by this. London doesn't have these signs.So today I got out more and put a few of these signs around town.

Vandalism or some kind of performance art? Hmm....
I love squirrels - I would open all of them. Most of them.
One of the reasons I am with the CFO is his elaborate squirrel storytelling. In his worldview, squirrels are the evil asbos of the forest who hang around in the 'bar des ecureuils' (now shorthand at ours for those straw dog type bars you get in small french towns), ride mobylettes and steal old ladies' handbags. So I was scared witless at the thought of ecureuil in my weetabix.
see? getting out can be fun! :-)
Ooh! Shaun! Now I want Weetabix.
I adore squirrels, though the ones around here are so boring-looking. I wish we had those gorgeous Belarusian squirrels with the tufted ears. Or I guess I could just get in the car and drive for an hour. Up in the Rockys, we have Abert's squirrels. However, they can be difficult to photograph due to their, well, squirreliness.
May contain squirrels...and you, certainly contain... FUNNY! :)
Did you leave the signs there? Please tell us that you did!
If I was doing that, I would be full of the church laughter, where your chest feels so full of laughter you could absolutely burst, but you absolutely must not laugh out loud, so it grows and grows until you are positively fizzing and leaking little random spurts of giggle.
Now I want to be following people around as they pick up the packages.

That is the best art I have ever seen.
I really shouldn't have read this while trying to drink a cup of tea. I think some went up my nose.
I really, really hope you end up on the news after the people of London are terrified by possible squirrels.
Wandering round the internet at this ungodly hour I have arrived at your hilarous blog! (I was directed to this post by Veronica from her Likaholix page, had to check it out, i'm nosey see)
Love it!
We had the joy of a squirrel move into our den roof...trapping said squirrel took cunning(and peanut butter) we released him in the park and darn it,..I swear he was back home before we were...so we took him camping with us... and then throughout the summer we captured his friends one by one(there must have been a major bloody squirrel advert..'roof to let') which led to the query made by our kids (5 and 7 then) "Mummy why do we tend to take squirrels camping with us?"
you may well ask....
I love you, man.
I am truly horrified that Velocibadgergirl's pro-squirrel stand has gained such acceptance. Try waking up to 6 squirrels on your 8 by 8 foot patio on a summer morning. They are rodents.
Do not be swayed by the fluffy tail. RODENTS.
Thank you for making my day!
I wish you lived here so I could find your squirrel notices everywhere, though it might actually kill me.
The world needs more of you.
Have just been for a second look at the Cadburys Creme Easter Eggs I bought!
Squirrels are just tree rats.
I like rats, too. And mice. And frogs and bats and snakes and everything else. I live in a country with no rabies or predators and I wasn't conditioned to be scared or repulsed by animals.
Gerbils, hamsters and chinchillas are also rodents, but they seem to get away without anyone baying for their death or social exclusion. I suppose it's who you know.
Can anyone eat a Creme egg without wanting to throw up? I think it's an automatic gag reflex. I think my screen-name is the best though - misohoni
"Oh, I'm just sooooo titting funny."
Well, yes, frankly.
God I miss squirrels. I suspect here in squirrel-less NZ the joke might fall a bit flat but I like to imagine putting those signs everywhere nevertheless.
Veronica sent me over here as well.. I very carefully opened the browser just in case there were squirrels...
ah hahahaha
thank you
that is all
BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...awesome :D
The only way this could possibly be better is if you also planted a few hidden cameras to watch for people's reactions.
So. Awesome. Also, looks as if you're inspiring others!

Saw this and thought of you:

anything called feltidermy must be good.
xo!
Yes, yes you definitely are. I laughed so hard at the mailbox with the squirrel sign on it I may have done myself a mischief.
Living in the frozen north does strange things to one's sense of humour.
Oh man. I'm just catching up on blogs after a hiatus owing to childbirth (yes! I shall have a yoghurt-with-muesli demanding tyrant of my very own in around 2 years! Now she's just a milk demanding tyrant with smelly pants) and this made me laugh far too much. Despite the danger of awakening the tyrant in my lap (baby sling). She sleeps on, weirdly. I have finally stopped giggling. But I still love this idea. More squirrels!
