Dr. Dolittle or....When Squirrels Attack!

Betty has always been an animal lover and the animals love her right back.  We've had stray animals come up to us outside of restaurants and beg for food.  Ok, that's not that uncommon, but have you ever had one recognize your car and sit beside it when you come out instead of sitting at the door?  I didn't think so.

Whenever we're walking somewhere, usually some dog or cat or whatever will take up with Betty and follow her like they think she understands them.

Monday morning Betty's animal magnetism moved to a whole new level.  While she was rolling the trash can out to the street, a squirrel fell or jumped out of the tree onto her head!  Yes, onto her HEAD!  Now, squirrels are pretty agile little guys, so either this one is the klutz of the species or he was aiming for Betty! 

I don't know if it was an act of love or an act of war, but I'm advising Betty to be alert and get her game face on -- Tebow style!
