Question: Here's a good one. Has anyone ever witnessed a squirrel, or squirrels, using the bathroom? Now I know this question sounds and seems a little, or a lot, far fetched, but my nine year old asked me this. After thinking about it, for some time 2, I realized that no, I haven't. I see and feed squirrels on a daily basis and have birds in the trees around my house that constantly bombard my SUV. Just about every time U see a horse, it's tail is lifted or you can see that it's left a reminder of it's presence. What gives with the squirrels? Are they modest or gun shy?

Answer: LOL.. Interesting question... \n\nLet your 9 yr old know that I have indeed seen squirrels go to the bathroom, per se.  \n\nI have a group that have become so used to me that they actually come up to my slider, stand on their back feet and press their front feet to the glass , as if to say  " hey. lady ! Where are the peanuts !?!? ( I have to throw them out one at a time, through a tiny crack in the door, or the little twits would charge into my livingroom)\n\nANYWAY... Once they are done chasing each other, running away and planting said peanuts and drinking the fresh water, they *ahem* use my potted plants as their litter box.... *shakes head and rolls eyes*  \n\nSo yes Virginia, they do go to the bathroom... :)
