Here's something to help put a bright spot on everyone's day I hope. Had my regular reflexology appt this a.m. & my reflexologist was telling me how him & his other half found a baby squirrel that had fallen out of a high tree, way too high for anyone to get back up to.The little tyke was severly dehydrated so he took it in the house & started giving it tiny bits of water with a dropper and then gradually increased the amt & then changed to milk. They made him comfortable in a cage. Well the little one started to come around cause he could tell by it's noticing it's surroundings kind of like hey where am I, whats going on here, etc. etc. and kind of starting to scurry around a bit.Well they graduated to feeding it granola and related stuff & he was telling me that it got to the point when he takes his hand away & I guess if it's still got food in it the little one would start to chatter just like crazy.It fits in the palm of his hand cause it's still tiny. He said the other night he was lying on the couch so he brought the little one onto his stomach & it curled in a ball & slept for a bit then when it woke up it started tugging and pulling at the tee shirt as if to cover himself up.Well they've named him Gravity cause of the falling situation & although they're getting kind of attached to it, he's come up with a plan to rehabilitate to the wild. I just everyone can use a good story just for the sake of it making you smile. Take good care all.

Awwww thats so cute. I hope the little one can get back out into the wild when he\'s fully recovered. I have a wild pet red squirrel. I call him Theodore. Every morning he\'s at the bird feeder trying to get some food. I go out and put some on the railing for him.
It\'s nice to read nice stories.
Thanks Nancy
