| WARNING: Hide a Squirrel I went to take a shower and left my two in their x-pen with their hide a squirrel. When I got out I found Lexie trying to pull the hide a squirrel off Tucker's head and Tucker whining like crazy. He'd gotten his head stuck through two of the holes!!! Through the top and on through one of the side holes. I carefully pulled it off of his head, but there's no telling if it did any damage to his trachea. He's not wheezing or coughing, but it doesn't keep me from worrying. I guess what I'm trying to accomplish is warning everyone that hide a squirrel is not a safe toy to leave your babies with unsupervised. Too much can happen in 15 minutes, which is all I was gone for. Keep your babies safe!

| Aw poor Tucker! I'm glad you caught that in time. I don't even know what happened to Rocky and Bella's Hide a Squirrel toy, were constantly losing toys. That was very sweet of Lexie to try to help Tucker! He's lucky to have a sister that loves him soo much!

| Hide a Squirrel I never let Tricksie play with a toy unless I supervise. Only the everlasting treat balls and the everylasting fun balls.

| That might have been me. Beamer has stuck his head inside and then was walking around with it on his head.

| Regan got her head stuck too & she was going around & around trying to scratch & get it off, I was just so glad I wasn't over at work when it happened! from then on, if I wasn't home I took the trunk out of her x-pen but would leave her to squirrels to play with!!
