It’s been almost 4 weeks since I got back to my home.
I’ve looked for My Furry Friend, FRED, everywhere in my backyard
but he is nowhere to be found.
For those of you who don’t know Fred, he is a chipmunk.
He the inspiration of this poem …
Fred, the chipmunk.
My furry backyard friend.
Makes squeaky chirpy blend.
Love to chase him but
he moves so quick.
Fred can run so slick.
Fred digs a hole
for his winter home.
Collects nuts and berries
to keep for his winter sleep.
He is also the inspiration of Sugar’s Furry Friend book written by mom.
NO FRED!
By now, he should be around.
I know the weather has been odd lately and might have confused FRED.
I’ve been sitting where Fred usually sits.
Hoping my scent helps out to let him know I’m back.
Every day, I keep on Woof! Woof! to my mom to let me out as I just want to hang out on the patio. She finally decided to leave the sliding door open … and let me decide to come in when I’m done searching for Fred.
I do admit that I’ve been mischievous each time I go out on the patio.
I’m just simply searching for My Furry Friend, Fred.
One reason mom decided to place my bed by the sliding door overlooking the patio.
Keeping an eye on Fred’s appearance.

I hope Fred decides it’s time to visit. Maybe he is waiting for warmer weather.
I”m sorry Fred’s not back yet Sugar…When Momz lived in Wisconsin her dogs had chipmunk furriends and they used to watch them through the sliding glass door too…We don’t know any young children so if we win your book we will donate it to the library for lots of kids to read
We entered the giveaway for our grandkids Mareto and Arsema!
Sugar Fred and two of his brudders are in our yard…we kept them while you were away. I’ll send them
C(hipmunk) O D

Maybe Fred took a little vacation. I sure hope he comes back home real soon.
great idea leaving the door open, wish we could. in FLorida if you leave the door open, even in winter time, bugs fill up the house… hope fred comes out soon
Oh Sugar, you look so pensive and patient waiting for Fred. Hope he turns up soon.

Hi Sugar we hope Fred comes back soon. Maybe the odd weather has confused him as you say. Paws crossed. We’d love to enter the giveaway but we understand if you want to miss us out as we are in the UK. Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
Hope Fred shows up soon! Oohhh excited about the book contest!! Yea!!
Maybe Fred is on tour with Alwin and the Chipmunks? I hope he is back soon :o)
Mom would love to win a copy of the book. We sure hope Fred returns, or at least a member of his family. We’d be so sad if we never saw our squirrels again. Sugar you look so handsome but a little sad as well. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
Here’s hoping that Fred comes out of his little home in the ground soon!! We haven’t seen any of our little chipmunk friends yet, either.
Aww Sugar, maybe Fred is visiting family.
I’m sure he’ll be back soon! Maybe in the meantime you could write another poem welcoming him home!
Woof Woof!
I would love to win the book. I have a little niece who would think it’s awesome.
We sure hope Fred comes back soon. Maybe he is off on an adventure.
We sure would love to read your book, we entered the giveaway. Mommy is Alasandra
I hope you see Fred soon too Sugar. I’m sure he’ll show up very soon.
Have a woof woof day. My best to your mom. 🙂
Ok, I never heard about Fred the chipmunk, but do you know that I have Fred the squirrel that comes to visit me in my window almost every day! I love chippers but we don’t have any, I have to go to Gramma’s or my cousin Lena’s house to see them but Fred is my squirrel. At one point he started coming with his friend so I named his friend Ralph. Do you have a Ralph too? I actually have 2 posts about Fred.
I hope Fred makes an appearance soon! You are so patient to wait for him – I’m sure he is excited to see you again too!
Oh Sugar we sure hope Fred shows up soon. Bet he will come when he sees you. We entered your giveaway, whoooa!
Benny & Lily
Oh Sugar,
I feel so bad for you buddy, I’m sure Fred would be back as soon as he knows you’re there – Have you sent him a pee mail? I leave them all over the neighborhood when I’ve got something important to communicate! 🙂
Good luck in finding him,
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
Keep waiting Sugar, Fred is surely there somewhere!!
Your Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
We would love the book Sugar 🙂 Sure hope Fred comes back soon ;0 XX00XX
Mollie and Alfie
I sure hope you find Fred soon!
I hadn’t heard about Fred the chipmunk, I think it would be a pretty cool book to read! And, I hope your buddy comes back soon, I’m sure the weather has him a little confused.
I hope furry Fred shows up. He probably went back into hibernation with this crazy weather.
Our chippers are slow to appear too, Sugar. Maybe they’re waiting for warmer weather before they make their appearance?!
Love ya lots,
Mitch and Molly
Oh Sugar, we hope your friend Fred shows up soon. Another of our pals, Chicco, just reunited with his pal Valentina the turtle. Can’t be much longer for Fred – he is probably waiting for warmer temps.
Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
I would love to participate! Thank you Sugar! I love chipmunks!
We love Chippys! Hope Fred turns up soon!
Lovies, Miss Mindy
Oh dear, forgot to say we would like to participate! BOL!
Hmm, I wonder where Fred could be? I hope he comes out to visit you soon, Sugar. You sure do look like you miss him. And how nice of you to be giving away copies of your Furry Friends book.

We hope you find Fred soon! In the meantime, we could send an annoying squirrel named Chippy…..
Here’s to Fred’s reappearance! Though, if Fred is related to that lying scum of a groundhog, Puxatawney Phil, he may have been lynched last month. Just sayin’.
Hi Sugar! We have never seen a friend like Fred, he sure looks like a lot of fun! We hope he shows up soon!
The BARK dogs
We sure hope Fred gets the word that you’re home again so he can come visit! What a great giveaway too!
I think Easy’s right, and that he’s on tour! Hope he comes back soon
I hope poor Fred is okay. 🙁
I hope Fred comes back to visit you!
We hope you find your friend soon- and what a fun giveaway!
Hi Sugar, I just hope he didn’t catch a boat to the Islands looking for you. Maybe he is just snuggled down for a long winter’s nap somewhere. What a good and faithful friend you are!
Wags, Noreen & Hunter
Hope Fred returns soon!
Nola
Oh Sugar, of course Fred will come back to see you! He probally just doesn’t know your back yet. Be patient, the wacky weather probally is to blame.
Kisses,
Ruby
Hey Sugar!
Wow, I’m so sorry you are missing your furiend! Maybe he is still snoozing in a nice tree nest until it warms up. I love my copy of your book and I’ll get this current giveaway added to the BCCalendar.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP
Hello Sugar. I wish I had a FRED. All eyes got is some tree rats. Maybe FRED went on a vacation to visit some of his relatives. I’m sure he will be back soon. I would loves to get a copy of your Mum’s book. I don’t read too good yet (as I’m only 1) … so my mum reads to me.
I hopes I win.
Wags,
Ranger

You’re a very special friend to spend time and not and not give up looking for a friend.
Our chipmunks are still asleep. Maybe Fred is too! I hope that he wakes up soon!
Do your pawrents remember that song that Michael Jackson sang to his pet rat Ben? Well, I have been singing “Fred” over here.
Thanks for having this giveaway

Delilah watches for the chipmunks too, but so far we’ve refrained from naming them. 🙂
I remember Fred. Maybe he went off looking for you? 🙂
