BIG *sigh* I used to take care of these littles ones for a living. I never thought I’d miss them SO much. I just love little ones.

13 Maureen 02.24.07 at 10:18 pm

I used to have a squirrel, too! He was only 3 weeks old when we rescued him and we successfully raised him and got him back into the wild with coaching from the Audubon Society. I will never forget Mr. Nibbles. He was so sweet and so much fun….

14 nana 02.24.07 at 10:24 pm

Oh, oh – and more pointy-eared goodness too!
I louf me some squirrels!!! Weeeee!

23 useta hada kitteh 02.25.07 at 2:12 am

Somewhere in a book (Gerald Durrell perhaps? or not…) I seem to remember a squirrel called Squillil Small. I think this is him! he. (that grammar stuff is tripping me up again…)

He’s so sweet. I want to stroke his little back very gently with my forefinger.

24 A thinker 02.25.07 at 2:12 am

That is Skinny Skwerl, but not going to be skinny much longer, the way he’s chugging. Go little Skwerl!

25 anner 02.25.07 at 2:52 am

poor cute little slip of a squirrel! hopefully the sustenance will fill out his Gollum-like figure.

26 Tina Rhea 02.25.07 at 3:49 am

Useta, I think “Squilil Small” was in one of Gerald Durrell’s wonderful books. And for all those who “want one”– these little buggers have to be fed about every two hours… AROUND THE CLOCK. At least with baby birds you can take a break when it gets dark.

“Squirrel” is pronounced in interesting ways– my English friend said “skwir-ell” and insisted that I said “skwerl”, and my Czech prof said “skveerull”.

Croatian actress Mira Furlan, now playing the crazy Frenchwoman on LOST, hadn’t seen Bullwinkle cartoons and wondered why fans wanted to hear her say, “Ve must get moose and skvirell….”

27 mlle_x 02.25.07 at 4:39 am

Oh, I love that pose! We always called it the frog pose, as in, “That cat must be super hot, she’s all frogged out in the bathtub!”

Awwwwwwww.

28 luckycliff 02.25.07 at 5:47 am

hee hee looks like the baby is hitting the bottle pretty hard there! reminds me of this posting http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/the_coveted_cuteness_trifecta/index.html

29 Subhangi 02.25.07 at 6:28 am

30 lauowolf 02.25.07 at 7:52 am

Actually, they ship them all flat like this, and then inflate them on-site.

31 all day long 02.25.07 at 8:44 am

My head just exploded. Do you know how hard it is to type when you lack eyeballs? Thanks a lot C.O. !

32 Layla42 02.25.07 at 2:30 pm

33 J. Bo 02.25.07 at 4:56 pm

It’s just going to grow up to be evil… EVIL, I TELL YOU!

34 DKN 02.25.07 at 5:17 pm

Bebeh SQEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIRRRRLL!!!

I love how his little ears are laid back in concentration.

35 Lisa B 02.25.07 at 5:23 pm

OK – I’m sorry, but this needs to be in the cute or sad category! He’s so scrawny and anemic looking. :( If I wasn’t told it was a squirrel, I’d have wondered what species it was.

36 Hazel 02.25.07 at 7:29 pm

“Actually, they ship them all flat like this, and then inflate them on-site”

Thanks lauowolf…. tea still dribbling down nose…..

Cutey sqwerl tho’ I shall love it forever….

37 Dewi 02.25.07 at 7:37 pm

These is one sad thing about this picture the squerril has run out of milk(carring big jug of warmed milk)the poor thing is hungry look at it sucking the last drops out. It needs milk to make its belly suitable warm and full for correct snorgling

38 Karin 02.25.07 at 10:52 pm

39 Kathy 02.26.07 at 12:03 am

LOVE,LOVE,LOVE this little guy!!!! We had Lucky Girl and had to put her in a warm tea cup when we first got her (holding her head out of the water, of course), because she was so cold. Her eyes weren’t even open! Hey, anybody interested, there is http://www.thesquirrelloversclub.com …great newsletters and pix!
