When I hear that cry I often find my neighbor's cat lurking somewhere (hate that cat) then I scare cat off and then all my babies eventually quite down. One afternoon, I found a pretty grey fox lurking about & all my wilds were calling a "fox alert". I think it is cool how they alarm each other. However, I do have two spoiled rotten boys who will sometimes sit up there & cry when they are hungry. It makes me feels so sad, because I feel like a rotten squirrel moma that didn't teach them how to find thier own food.
I give them a nut & sometimes they continue to whine while eating; it does sound funny. I tell them that can't cry and eat at the same time, but they don't listen. Spoiled rotten boys!
