Dear world,
Yesterday, Mom found a baby squirrel in our backyard. Of course she freaked, but immediately googled. She read that you need to put the baby in a box on something soft like a t-shirt. Luckily, one of the cable guys that were working outside got him into the box with the J.Crew tshirt. Then she found out the baby needs a hot water bottle with a sock over it in the box. She then put the box where she found the baby hoping that Mama Squirrel would get it. That is when I went over to guard the squirrel. Mom said it was very noble of me, but Mama Squirrel won't come if I am there. (Why would a squirrel be scared of me?) But I listened, cause Mom was in no mood for my thought provoking questions. Well, Mama Squirrel never came. So luckily, a nice Squirrel rescue/rehab lady told Mom she was able to take care of the baby. So when Dad came home, he went to get the box. The squirrel had crawled up in the sock! Dad thought it suffocated and Mom said "I killed it?" And then Dad took away the sock and the baby moved! Relief! Then Mom and Dad brought the baby over to the rehab lady's house. The lady felt that the baby will be OK. And she told them it was a girl! A girl squirrel. I love rhymes. And I also love happy endings. (Paws crossed for Baby Girl Squirrel!)
Love always,
Bear
