Whew! With National Penguin Awareness Day behind us, we can finally turn all our energies toward celebrating today's made-up animal-related holiday: Squirrel Appreciation Day. You know, the day when all Americans take time out to remember those feisty, funny, athletic little guys with a penchant for obstacle courses and an unfortunate tendency to overdo it with the fermented pumpkins.
Christy Hargrove, a certified wildlife rehabilitator from North Carolina, started Squirrel Appreciation Day back in 2001.

Great story and he sounds like a darlin’ little guy.Probably so.
I hand raised a fallen baby squirrel m'self. Named her Mr Flibble, before I saw enough squirrel porn to correctly ID her gender.
They are somewhat high strung and have very sharp claws I looked like a roadmap for months. Other than that she was a little darling apt to be found in the oddest of places, sacked out in the toe of my shoe, hiding between shirts in the closet, etc.
Be advised, squirrels love to shred books for bedding, and think wires are wonderful chew toys...
