Pepper was so very proud at having caught and killed a fluffy tailed treerat
Pepper’s just caught treerat
He trotted around the yard with such pride letting no one near him.
Pepper proudly trots the yard
Finally he settles down to rest
Proud Pepper at rest
This is when I spied with my feline eye a delicious fresh killed treerat
I spot the said treerat
Thinking
How to get around Peppers pride
I sneak ever closer
Maybe if I fain disinterest
Zippity Hummmm
If I look away when he looks at me
Dumdeee Dummmmmm
Oh dear temptation bested my patience
Temptation
He growls as I close in
So, did you get the treerat? You can’t leave us hanging like this!
Afraid not
Are Treerats the same species as squirrels? I have never seen domesticated dogs or cats eat squirrels????
Yes tree rats are squirrels and both dogs and cats eat them. Humans also eat squirrels in the USA the stew is called Brunswick stew it is traditionally made with squirrel, rabbit or opossum meat, but chicken is most commonly used in modern versions.
