Buster busts a gut

Time to skedaddle!
What a balancing act!
Good old Buster Brown, he guards that bird feeder to prevent Reddie, the Red Squirrel, from taking the bird seed. He failed yesterday. I walked out with him, and spotted Reddie, who was afraid to move.
Eventually, after an unsuccessful attempt, a giant failed leap for feline kind, he realized it had rained and the railings were wet. I grabbed him, where he perched on my shoulder, and tapped the bucket. Reddie took the flying leap for Scurious Vulgaris, and ended up in the Catalpa tree. No squirrels were harmed in the process.
