Squirrels also don’t look both ways before crossing the street, which I discovered as I watched one carefully wait for the southbound lanes to clear, then run out to the median. I figured he’d stop there and wait for the northbound lanes to clear so he could finish crossing, but he kept running instead and became an ex-squirrel.
Squirrels: They can jump from one moving tree branch to another perfectly. But can judge the distance between them and the speed of an oncoming car. Actually, I almost had one run into me while I was on my bike!
Squirrels are good at jumping out of trees, landing on folded patio umbrellas and sliding down, claws extended, like Errol Flynn with a knife on a ship’s sail. I have the ruined umbrellas as proof.

Cats always land on their feet, so at least you could have clawed the heck out of him!

Peekaboo isn’t on the list of great cats.
