We used to have a cat that would catch and eat these things. She'd leave the tails on the porch for us to find.
I was surprised to learn that the tails are flat unlike the fluffy tails of gray or fox squirrels.

Wow!
I did not even know this species was part of our local environment here - and I have spent over 30 years on the East Coast in the US!
