Furst off, we need to apologise fur overlooking a furry important event that okhkhured on Thursday: It was SKHWIRREL APPRECIATION DAY!
I realise I did mention it last year and planned to celebrate it this time around BUT it just snukhk up on us!
Here is the GOOGLE SEARCH fur it - perhaps woo khan find an event happening in your khommunity this weekend!
If not, have one of your furry own!
Now bakhk to our regularly skhheduled post:
It's the MERDIE edition!
Hi EvFURRYone!
Look at what I had to put up with when I arrived on Wednesday
Please pardon the slightly blurred pikhs - Khyra's Mom didn't realise we'd be moving soooo fast!
Hi EvFURRYone!
Look at what I had to put up with when I arrived on Wednesday
Please pardon the slightly blurred pikhs - Khyra's Mom didn't realise we'd be moving soooo fast!
I sought refuge under the khardtable
I got a walk!
I found this on Khyra's Mom's laptop
Looks like she was making sure no one took her fluffy tail!
One of those serious sparrows
Also known as a 'coopers' hawk which must have gotten Khyra's pal AngusMhor since he seems to have disappeared into The Bakhh 40 on Farmville!
Khyra told me about her furiend Ziggy Marley - we wondered if he sent us this furry khool sky?Here is THIS WEEK'S SLIDESHOW OF SKY PIKHS

Oh Merdie, Khyra's just so happy to see you!!!
ReplyDeleteSquirrel Appreciation day??? We love love love squirrels. :) Now if only we could catch one too!
ReplyDeleteHappy tails to you too! I will definitely try to find a squirrel celebration this weekend...
ReplyDeleteNOT!!!!!!!!!!
that squirrel guy is kinda scary
ReplyDeleteOOOOO, I saw a hawk yesterday and I think, from looking at your picture and the Google, that it may have been a Cooper's Hawk as well, although a young one. I got within about 5 feet of it, and then it flew away!
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me! :)
And thank you for sharing Merdie with us again!
What a great opening - and a hard act to follow! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat?!!? Squirrel Appreciation Day?
ReplyDeleteHa-roo roo, I've got a furry special celebration planned alright... wanna stop by fur a bowl of Squirrel Fricasee?
a-roos to yous,
jack a-roo
Khyra, you and Merdie are having so much fun! Thank you for letting us know about Squirrel Appreciation Day. I have to admit, they do make life more fun.:)
ReplyDeleteLove,
Teddy Bear
hey Khyra, and hey Merdie!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a mobster Squirrel so I wouldn't want to mess with him or his crew! I prefer bunnies myself.
You two pups looked like you had great fun playing Hide-n-Seek! Merdie, good hiding place! But next time make sure there is a long tablecloth over the table.
Suka
We don't have squirrels in NZ :( Could you please chase one for us?
ReplyDeleteHello Khyra and Merdie!
ReplyDeleteWill pay a visit to them squirrels at the Botanical Gardens this week!
If they'd only come near enough for me to show them how much i appreciate their company..(drooling)
Cheers,
Maxx
I lurve squirrels, fried, roasted, or sauteed, or raw, carpacchio style.
ReplyDeleteBut don't like 'em wearing clothes though!
Yes, I surely do appreciate Squirrels, every day!
How nice of Miss Khyra to share her blog today with Miss Merdie! Did you two have fun playing chase around the table? All tails are looking quite floofy there today, nice to see Miss Khyra has her own tail today,no wonder she is guarding it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday, Phantom and Thunder
Wow! What a beautiful picture of the sun peeking through the clouds
ReplyDeleteHa! Love that squirrel picture! If that squirrel were in my yard, he would be toast!!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend with Merdie!

Do you like to wrestle as much as a Sibe? I bet with as much time as you spend with Khyra, you're turning into a Sibe in a Golden suit.
ReplyDeleteSteve

Geez, NICE flat screen; VERY NICE flat screen. We's jealous. Noticed that Merdie wears the same royal purple color and type collar that Jubal does. Can't believe that the world's most famous squirrel hater observes Squirrel Appreciation day unless it's a menu appreciation.
ReplyDelete"Rain, rain, go away
Come again some other day."

Merdie....looks like Khyra was happy to see you!!! We hope you are having a great time with her!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell of course you casnot let someone take your tail!
ReplyDeleteYou look so happy to see Merdie, it beed fun to see!
~lickies, Ludo
So happy to see you today, Merdie! Hope you're having fun with Khyra and we hope you both have a super weekend!
ReplyDeleteKhyra is sure happy to see Merdie! We didn't know about Squirrel appreciation day, but Sam wants to know when Rabbit appreciation day is!
ReplyDeleteSam
Go Merdie!!! It is so nice of your to give Khyra a day off!!
ReplyDeleteAre you sure it's not "Chase the Squirrel Day"??? Cause that is what it is in my backyard.
Smileys!

Hi Khyra and Merdie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all your purdy pictures with us. I posted some snow pics for you!
Waggles,
Bijou
Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteWhat pawsome pictures:)
Khyra, I don't care what Merdie says, when she's "hiding" from you behind the table, she looks anything but scared. She's a jokester, isn't she?
ReplyDeleteGlad you two are having a ball!
How's your Auntie Di faring?
Twink!
Squirrel appreciation day?!?! Hmm...I'd appreciate if I could get a squirrel in my mouth and give it a "mouth hug", does that count??
ReplyDeleteNot squirrel day. What is up with that? Those things antagonize us all the time!!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures of you 2.. Enjoy your weekend..
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
Squirrel Appreciation Day? Too bad I missed out on the fun...maybe they'll come and celebrate it with us next year?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great sky slideshow!

ReplyDeleteThanks for taking us around, Merdie!
ReplyDeleteThe sky is very impressive - I bet Ziggy DID send it!
Have a good weekend, you two!
Oh that sky picture is beautiful! Hugs Joey and Kealani
ReplyDeleteNice pics. We don't have many squirrels around here yet. Our trees are still babies but I am sure once they get big and strong we will start to see some around here.
ReplyDeleteWe appreciate squirrel's so much - that we chase 'em and chase 'em and sometimes - only on the bestest days we CATCH THEM!!!!
ReplyDeleteBen

ReplyDeleterodent. I guess Cloud hasn't seen him yet since I am sure he would have some "words" about it.
Merdie, you look just great. I wish you and Khyra would get to Minniesnowda, we are getting lots of snow this weekend.
Your cousin,
Stella

Hi Khyra
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing better for the soul than your fluffy tail (that you are hiding- so no one can get it) and your moms sky show,
We just went and watched the beauty! Your mom and the magic camera are awsome.
Ya know what Khyra- my squirrel did not have any clothes like your squirrly- I wonder where he got those!
We have red tail hawk- but no coopers.
Merdie is looking beautiful as always and so are you!
love
tweedles
