Norman and the Chipmunks
Some of you probably noticed that my new toy is called, "Hide a Squirrel," yet I refer to the "squirrels" as "chipmunks." The reason for this is that they look more like chipmunks than squirrels to me, and I call 'em like I see 'em.
See those stripes? Those are chipmunk stripes.
See the resemblance?
This is a toy squirrel.
This is a real squirrel.
Squirrels come in other colors than just grey, but I don't think I've seen a striped squirrel, so I'm going to continue to call my "squirrels" "chipmunks." Besides, I already have a squirrel toy, and we can't go mixing up the toy names!!

I thought that was a chippy munk too. That toy is so cute. Those chippies and squirrels deserve to be shaken up a bit.

That's what I thought too when I got that toy. But all I really care about is that they are great to chase around and they make the best squeaky noises!!
Love Clover xo
