I'm going to tell you about a squirrel we found after the hurricane...
Well its the day after hurricane IVAN, and even thought my house didn't recieve any damage because i'm so far inland, many people did and we had to check on my family members. There were alot of trees fallen on the road so it took forever to get where you wanted to go because you could down a road and at the very end it would have a tree, good thing we had my uncle and his chain saw with us. So we were at one of those places and we were lifting trees and a little baby squirrel, one of the cutest things i've ever seen, doesn't even have its eyes open yet, falls out of the tree. I go get my mother and she tells me to go get a towel, because its cold from all the rain. I go get the towel and she wraps it up and we take it home. We name it IVAN. Unfortunately our electricity is still out, so its kinda hard to keep it extremely warm, but we manage. My cats, as you can imagine, had a field day with that poor little thing. We desede that it need to go someplace else so we give it to the neighbors. They take care of it for a while and then they take it outside and let it run around for a while, because its a few weeks later and it has its eyes open. It runs up a tree and some other squirrels see it and sort of adopt it. Yay for happy endings!
I hope this story has filled your heart with joy!! heart heart heart
