The Squirrel That Climbed Into My Life…

What are your favorite animals?

A memory that climbed up my leg and stayed…

Animals are great.. they can be your best buddy.. your worst nightmare.. or a sandwich.. it just depends on which one you choose.. they’re diverse like that..
I’ve experienced them as all three.. I think I prefer them as friend or food..
The animal I’m about to tell you about can be either of the three…

So the squirrel isn’t my favorite animal.. but I’ve got some cool stories.. I’ve had a few as pets over the years.. and I’ve had dealings with them many times..
I once had like five babies at the same time.. it was overwhelming.. so I took them and dropped them off at a veterinarian’s office.. and said “here.. you can have these” haha…

My first ever experience with a squirrel was a memorable one.. I ended up giving her a name.. “Peanut..” She was a special little thing.. she became my buddy.. and part of my family..
One day.. I was outside.. I just happened to look down as I walked.. and there was this small baby squirrel..
I stopped and just observed.. I didn’t want to touch it.. because I wasn’t sure if maybe the mama wouldn’t come back for it.. and I didn’t want to leave my scent..
Then she started coming to me.. and to my surprise.. she climbed up my pants leg and into my arms..
and it was over.. my heart was won…

To be continued…

  1. Ironically when I lived in New York I too had a pet squirrel who I fed out the window almost everyday. She disappeared for a few days came back with her babies. They were so tiny and cute. They nested on the terrace. 🥰 Your squirrel stories are so cute. 🙌🏻 I guess people used to have squirrels as pets back in the day🤷🏻‍♀️ Kind of like pigeons . Crazy huh😁 Anyways wonderful post.🙏🏻❤️‍🔥
