How cute. Do you raise orphaned squirrels? I have several that come from outside and knock on the door for a peanut butter sandwiches and lots of other goodies. Those big beautiful eyes just make you melt. Smart little things.You took a GREAT PICTURE!!! #573994

Yes Deborah I raise The orphaned baby squirrels as they are brought to me.They are alot of work in the process but it is very rewarding to me.It makes me feel good when I can finally release them back into the wild.I have 4 Fox Squirrels that still hang around in my backyard.When their feeders are empty they come and tell me by knocking on my windows.They have babies every year too which are a joy to watch when they finally start to venture out.This one is a Red Squirrel and Red Squirrels do some not so nice things to Fox Squirrels so I am going to release them into a friends yard.He has a red squirrel population and puts feeders out for them so they will stay out of his bird feeders.There also is a water source and plenty of pine trees too.These little Red Squirrels are ready for release(There are 3...1 girl and 2 boys).I am just waiting for some nicer weather.We have been having alot of rain storms here in Michigan.Thank you for looking!

Wonderful close-up, CAT. Your story of your work with orphaned baby squirrels is very interesting, too. You are a real friend to the little creatures. #574161
