Sam Squirrel's Story Page 12



Sam squirrel Hi this is Sam Squirrel to tell you another tale about my human Family.

They can be quite funny really and some of the things that happen to them could make a cat (or squirrel!)  laugh !

In this case, it was more of a dog's tail. If you get my meaning.

Old House The Family were living in their old house, which had a nice cupboard under the stairs.

Cupboard It wasn't as big as this one but this is the only picture I could find for you.
Well, Mother human kept her cleaner and sewing machine in the cupboard.

The cupboard was so small she had to go in straight and then back out and there was no room to turn round.

Mother human This particular day she was squatting down in the cupboard trying to reach something right at the back.

Unfortunately this meant that her skirt was on the ground behind her heels.

Everything would have been fine  -  if it hadn't been for the dog !

I did tell you that the human Family had a dog, called Pixie, at that time  -  didn't I.

Pixie Oh, well, sorry I forgot !

Here is a picture for you to see.

Something frightened Pixie and she ran to Mother human for protection and got as close to her as possible.

It was a pity, but she was behind Mother human's heels and on top of Mother's skirt !

Mother human ( and Pixie ! ) were trapped in the cupboard.


Mother human couldn't go forward as there was no room and she couldn't go backward without sitting on the dog !

They managed to sort it all out  -   eventually.  But I had a good laugh about it all.


See you again
