Legendary squirrel outfitter Archie McPhee has (we learn via Laughing Squid) GIF-ographic evidence that squirrels can, in fact, operate their Squirrel Coffee Cup.

One caveat has always been”Squirrel not included.” But at just $3 for this marvelous and completely functional cup, you can’t really afford not to find out if a hazelnut blend will attract a North American gray. You may want to don your own squirrel mask while sipping your morning brew, to set the little guys at ease.

If they are not set at ease, McPhee’s can help you work through the traumautic aftermath with this squirrel attack mug. (Desensitization. Read a book! McPhee’s warns that they are “Not responsible for damage caused by jittery squirrels.”)

Archie McPhee may well be the world’s leading squirrel apparel provider, as well, given the success of their squirrel underpants line. Again, this is something they have visual proof is completely not (completely) a joke.
