Who run the world? Squirrels.

You guys… I am seriously slacking off. I almost forgot that today is Squirrel Appreciation Day (aka Kolchak’s least favorite holiday).

Shocking, I know. (via gihpy.com)

Thanks for the reminder, Cute Overload.

In honor of this momentous day, I give you a bevy of squirrel-related puns.

You’re welcome. (via giphy.com)

Settle in with a cup of Squirrel Grey Tea (the drink of choice for refined squirrels everywhere) and enjoy this journey through the annals of squirrel history.

Interspecies baby mama drama

Happy Friday! Let’s get to today’s linkage (which I must admit is not actually filled with baby mama drama… just several animal baby mamas).

  1. First up, your punny pet names: Furman Bates and Bone Crawford.
  2. That’s right. Those are my holiday-themed puns for this week. Okay, fine. Enjoy these photos of cute animal moms. Happy now?
  3. Moving on… this guy gives new meaning to the word sheepdog.
  4. Speaking of interspecies pals (as I almost always am), sometimes an animal adopts a different kind of animal. When that happens, cuteness is the guaranteed result.
  5. No, really. It’s absolutely guaranteed. Adorbs.
  6. Apple Moonbeam is an awesome name. That’s just a fact. (Also a fact? I could never adopt a squirrel in need, as Tavish would simply think I’d finally brought the appetizers inside instead of letting them taunt him from afar.)
  7. Um, guys? I think I’m melting over here.

Finally, we end with a video. I think I could watch this all day:

Still need more? Enjoy:

Obviously, today’s theme was partially inspired by Mother’s Day. This weekend, I’ll be remembering the wonderful lady who made me into the woman I am today. To those of you also making due with a memory, I’m sending you a giant hug.

Appreciate a squirrel today

My friends, today is Squirrel Appreciation Day.  Seriously… you can’t make this stuff up.  I’m not one to discriminate, so today we’ll take a moment to observe the holiday.

  1. This week’s punny pet names come to us from the music world: Clay Acorn and Squirrel Haggard.  (Bonus name: James Squirrel Jones.)
  2. Wondering how one celebrates Squirrel Appreciation Day? Lucky for you, I found some suggested activities.  For those who’d like to spend the day increasing their Squirrel IQ, check out these interesting facts.
  3. I’d like to nominate this outstanding squirrel for the Best Squirrel Ever award.
  4. Probably the wrong day to laugh at Dug’s joke, huh?
  5. They do say a picture is worth a thousand acorns.  Therefore, I hope you enjoy these pretty cool squirrel photos.

I’m indulging my nostalgic side with today’s video selection.  I remember this video from my childhood, and it always made me laugh…

I almost looked for a cute squirrel video instead, but then I figured I’d probably never think of another reason to post this particular song.  (Want more squirrels?  Check out these Squirrels… in… Cyberspace!)

Happy Friday!
