I just had to tell you about my past couple of days. There was a squirrel in our fireplace and I tried to get it out but it kept going up in the chimmney but wouldn't go all the way up. 2 days gone by still there well tonight I got one of my extra parrots cage and put it over there. Put some food in and waited well he got in the cage I pulled the door shut and tried locking it called my friend (in the Kit) she ran out and put the clip on . LOW AND BEHOLD . Rocky got out . ran thru the house . Jumped on our friend Melissa who was sleeping didn't even wake up. the dogs ran after it and it jumped on her again ran in the room dogs chasing in the other room then the cat got into it,chased it over by the birds around and around also the dogs were chasing the cat at the same time then we got it in the kitchen . closed it off . It went up and down the walls,counters, and just missed my head. LOL then it went under the stove and out I finally got it back in the same cage made sure it was locked good. But he made sure he would eat a peanut or two before I let him loose. Boy what a night. never laughed so much and no video.

lol

How funny! With all that excitement, no one had time to take a video! LOL! Thanks for sharing! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Too bad your friend wasn't awake and taking a video! LOL I would have loved seeing that one!! You could have put it on Youtube!! LOL

Glad you got him out safely! Noone got bit or anything. Sometimes those squirrels can be very cheeky!

Bet your dogs and cat had a good time! LOL

I'm surprised that he still had all that energy in him after being in there those days. I just wished I had a video. I told my son when he came home tonight and he couldn't stop laughing. So I named myself the Proffessional Squirrell Catcher. :)

OMG that is funny. Too bad you didn't have a video camera going that could have won you some money LOL.

I'm laughing out loud!

It almost sounds like an action movie!
Isn't there a TV show about these brothers that come to your home to capture undesirable animals? Maybe they could have managed it a little better--but it makes a great story!

Now that's one hilarious story!

Thanks for sharing - great story - you have an exciting household! Imagine what that little squirrel told his buddies when he got back to the nest.....!

That is so funny, but a worry too I imagine. Our experience wasn"t quite that adventureous, but we had a raccoon go down our chimney, thankfully it didn't get in the house, the damper was closed. The "pro" came out, put a cage on top and trapped it, then we spent$$$ putting a wire chimney topper on . The funniest time was when we were trying to catch a mouse, lots of action with that one!

Laughing that's funny

lol what a funny story would love the video

That would have been funny to watch. Glad you got it out.

Oh MY! That is funny.

lol!

Life can be full of funny surprises! Sounds like you had a great one!! :thumbup: :D :thumbup:

That is so funny. I can just picture all of you chasing him all over. Glad he is outside now.

A video of this could have won you $10,000 on one of the tv shows :D:D:D

then we spent$$$ putting a wire chimney topper on .
----------------------------------------

Yes, this was what I was going to suggest. Or at least some sort of hardware cloth teepee till you could get some really experienced person up there to do it.

It sounds like a Chevy Chase movie "Christmas Vacation" where the squirrel gets in the house. You should send a copy of the viseo to Funniest Home Videos TV show. This is too funy not to share....(still wiping my eyes from laughing)

One wild night!! I enjoyed the story

Never a dull moment...that's for sure.

yep we had to put a cage type thing on top of your fire place chimney too. something fell inside the lining and our cat kept watch over the fireplace for days. we heard claws once in a while on the metal but no other noises. sad to keep hearing that and not being able to help what ever it was in there.

ROLMAO!!!! Thanks for the laugh today!

Too bad no video, would've been a winner on America's funniest Videos!!

Too bad no video. It would have won a BIG prize. Glad all ended well.

Oh My, i wet my pants on that one, so funny.Too bad u couldn't have made a video to send to "funniest Home Videos" I bet u would have won the 100,000.

My DH just came in to ask me why I'm crying? LOL

That's hilarious, hopefully he doesn't come back.

That would've been one funny video! Glad he got out safely. :)

So funny and now I am tired--HA

thanks !! I needed that laugh... too bad no video tho, what a hysterical thing that would of been to of shown neighbors, friends and family !! LOL

lol, funny now, probably not when it was going on I bet.

That is hilarious! That sounds like something that would happen here!

our best is when we had a skunk in the pool... it's an inground with just ladders, no stairs, so he fell in swam around a few times trying to get out.. rested in the skimmer opening, and tried again several times all day. i was at work when my mom called to tell me...

at one point he swam out of the skimmer & caught the stringline on one of the kids floats, & towed it around the pool a few times... mom got video, and we sure laughed at it.. i don't know what happened to it though...

dh used the hand skimmer to get the skunk out... just tossed him from the watet into the trees... managed not to get sprayed somehow...
