Splooting

Splooting
is lying in a
spread-eagled
prone position.

Stumpy is still splooting since it was 96 degrees today. Tomorrow is forecast for 99 degrees and I am looking forward to fall setting in with cooler weather. You cannot see her short tail but this is her.

Splooting is performed by four-legged mammals such as dogs and squirrels when they wish to relax or cool down. It may also be known as frogging or pancaking.

Splooting is a funny new word for me this summer.

I don’t blame the squirrel. Imagine being in that heat & you have fur coat that you can’t take off!

[Beverley]

Very cool shot! Fabulous

A great shot of poor hot Stumpy! (and thank you for introducing me to this word. Frogging and pancaking work too). I can't believe your area is still so unbearably hot, Cathee! Stay cool if you can. Fav

Stumpy has certainly grown used to being the subject of photographs.

So love when you share animal pics. I had several tame squirrels as a child.
