If you're having trouble getting things done today, you might want to take a leaf out of this squirrel's book.

The nutty little mammal from Dartford, Kent braved impressive winds to journey to a feeder in a back garden. The squirrel can be seen hanging on for dear life as it navigates the fence to reach its breakfast. It helps itself before another brave squirrel soul appears and the pair scurry back off into the storm.

Despite how the squirrel might make it seem, Storm Katie was no walk in the park. It knocked out power for more than 100,000 people across the southern part of England on Sunday night. A bed and breakfast owner in nearby Greenwich called it an "apocalyptic storm." Winds in Kent reached 70 mph.
