Last weekend at about 2am Sunday morning Dan & I woke up to what sounded like the chirping of a bird. My cat delights in bringing live animals he has caught into the house. I have woken up to many live and dead birds. I went to rescue the chirping critter from my kitty only to find it was no bird at all but an adorable and quite alarmed baby squirrel with its eyes not even open yet. I took care of him for two days. Nursing him with kitten replacement milk formula every hour round the clock and even took him to work on Monday to continue my vigil. He survived wonderfully and I was able to hand him over to a rescue place for further care and hopefully release. He was so cute and cuddly and I miss the little guy terrbily. I would love to have kept him but I am quite maxxed out on pets at present.

Baby squirrels are so cute! I would never have guessed.
That's pretty cute. Normally I find squirrels to be a little annoying, but that's cute.
And speaking of cute, your nephew Dax is ADORABLE! And I love the name. I really hope his surgery goes well!
You do know Mitt is out of the running for presidency now right? I just noticed the other day you had a why i don't like obama and now you have a why I like Mitt thing up. Just wondered if you knew. Also, Hillary is coming to Eugene on Saturday if you want to hear her speak. I don't know who exactly you are rooting for.
How cool is that? You did such a good job taking care of it too! Way to go
I have always wanted that sort of thing to happen to me. I am so jealous. I love that you took it to work with you. you are the best!
