Loretta – he was super skittish but got better pretty quickly once we broke out the seeds…

brother – that’s Grandpa indeed!

Natalie – we don’t have too bad a problem with rats…I surely hope it stays that way! I mean, they exist but not in armies…

Mom – also sounds like Grandpa!

marcia – weren’t the commercials awful? I howled when I heard the chipmunk’s name!

Capri Kel – gosh, our cats brought us stuff every single day. We kept a list for awhile and it was amazing! You shoulda had Butch take care of the critters!

Chipmunks are so cute! I wouldn’t want one in the house though.

The only critters we have had in the house (except the ones that were supposed to be there!) were a bird that got confused, and a mole that our old kitty, Mocha, brought me because he loved me.
His “gifts” were usually dead, but the mole was running around in circles. I put a pail over it and slid the tv guide under it & out it went. I was screaming the whole time.

Your grandfather is an amazing man. If only he was that patient with some of the cats he had…

When I was a kid your grandfather caught a chipmunk that had no tail because it got caught in a lawn mower. We kept it for some time until it was all healed up and ready to go. We let him out but he stayed around the filing station where we lived for a long time. He used to run in and out of the garage where dad was working on cars and motors for boats. He seemed to know that dad saved his life.

Ah. I love a happy ending.
So. Have you named your little friend?
I wish *our* rodents were cute, stripey and friendly.
We get bad-a** rats with smug expressions, late hours and dirty habits.
No truce here.
