The Squirrel-a-Whirl and its generic cousin the Squirrel Spinner are the funniest devices you'll ever have to flagellate yourself for enjoying. Ostensibly designed to distract squirrels from bird feeders, these apparati draw the rodent to treats mounted on a carefully balanced platform, which spins the squirrel off if he missteps. The real fun comes when teams of Austin's plentiful squirrels attack the task - when one makes a wrong move and the others go flying, you'll collapse laughing over the scolding he gets from his pals! You're a bad person!
