    My squirrel named Kevin wears a diaper. It's the cutest thing ever. He can't be released in a wild because hes blind in one eye and only has 3 and a half legs. He was a little baby that was caught in a fire. It burned his extremities. Didn't think he was gonna make it but we kept bottle feeding him and giving him antibiotics. My wife is a veterinarian and amputated his little burnt foot. He still alive today. He's 2 years old and the happiest little guy ever. ❤

      Your wife is living my ideal life - being a veterinarian and saving animals. I'm lowkey jealous. 😫 Edit: also, in case you/her/anybody is interested, I used to have a paralyzed rat that my Dad built a tiny wheelchair for. I also had a hairless rat who he knitted a little sweater for (it gets pretty cold in my country - Canada). I also once rescued a wild rat who'd been attacked by an owl, and he drove him about 6 hours away to a wildlife sanctuary (there are rat sanctuaries in my city now, don't worry).

      @@Hollyucinogen That is so cute about your little nakie rat having a sweater 😊 If you don't become a vet there are other (easier) ways to work with animals. You can volunteer at zoos and wildlife rehabilitation clinics and animal rescues and shelters. I became a wildlife biologist and enjoyed many years in the outdoors studying fish and wildlife. There are many seasonal jobs that you don't need advanced degrees or training for too. I'm not as familiar with Canada, but there are likely many government agencies that need field workers. You meet great people too.

    The amount of times I've been harassed by squirrels when I came too close to their home, it makes sense why a domesticated squirrel would protect your home as well. Also that Joey didn't attack the officer investigating, because he saw the two of you communicating and obviously not in a dangerous situation, the same way a dog does.

    As kids we lived in a large wooded family compound along the Mississippi River, which had lots of oak trees -- and therefore squirrels. If there were orphaned baby squirrels, my grandparents and parents (dedicated conservationists, even in those days in the early 1950s) had us kids care of them, feed them, until they could be released safely back into the wild. Over the years, we had a yardful of tame squirrel visitors who remembered the care they had received from us.😊

    In nature, squirrels are quite territorial, so I'm not terribly shocked by this, even though it's a bit unusual. I suspect Joey is fine with somebody he doesn't know coming in the house so long as "Daddy" is home, and things are friendly. But some stranger comes in when Daddy isn't home, and starts messing around? It's time to bust some nuts.

      Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️
      *What is the Gospel?*
      The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
      Romans 10:9
      9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
      JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!

But I'm glad and so pround that your dad nursed the chipmunk back to life. Such bravery and courage to do something so sweet to an innocent creature who means nothing but pure care and love. I'm sorry to hear that he lost an eye, animals deal with more pain than we do. I saw a tail of a squirrel, like the fur part somewhere and I was stunned if the squirrel was surviving without it.

    Many many years ago when I lived in Panama City Florida and we used to go up north on the Suwannee River! I had a friend that lived out there had two 35 lb plus red fox squirrels they're quite common in this Southeast! They're also considered a delicacy but I believe they're protected now! The two of those squirrels were absolutely protective of him his property and his automobiles if they didn't know you guess what you weren't getting close to him and those things can be vicious little beasters! But once they knew you they were your best friends and they would defend you as well when you were on the property it was incredible! Thank you for the video

    We had a pet squirrel. Raised from a just barely fuzzy pup. We named it Rocky from the cartoon show with Bullwinkle. Rocky was always playing/teasing our cats. They all got along well. When Rocky matured we discovered that he was she! Then the name changed to Rockette. SHE was always very defensive of anyone until we told her they were ok. Then, she would accept them and be her normal squirrel self begging for treats and getting all kinds of attention. At some point, she decide she wanted to make more squirrels and she bolted out the door, made a boy friend and had a family. She would always bring the kids around for treats and attention but, over time, kind of faded away.
    She was always missed but, we felt better once we had our pet blue jay, named BJ,or course. BJ also played with the cats and was one heck of a door bell. BJ was a clown and would imitate our telephone ringer when we were in the shower. Dare bird! Got the wife out of the shower a dozen time doing that! BJ also would do the Wolf Whistle and Hey You whistle. He did it when the kids were walking home from school and confused the heck out of the girls! The girls first were looking to see who was doing that and then saw BJ on the wife's shoulder. They were instantly tickled to meet him. He lived a long life of about 10 years and in his last few his feathers went from blue and black to almost all white.
    We had many pets such as above but also a dog, and some turtles and snakes and a brown bat, or two.
    Yes. We have a very strange family and there is rarely a dull moment in our house. LOL

    Many years ago, a friend of mine had a flying squirrel as a pet. Its favorite spot was the valance curtain next to the sofa. One day, an Avon lady came, sat on the sofa, and opened her case. From habit, the squirrel glided down to her shoulder. Just as the squirrel's toenails touched her shoulder, the squirrel realized she wasn't somebody he knew. The squirrel screamed in her ear and ran away. The Avon lady screamed and ran from the house. My friend's family had to gather up her belongings for her because she refused to go back into the house.

    I know it's old but you know, wild squirrels are absolutely terrifying if provoked. I'm a wildlife rehab student and once they get to be a certain size, the center suggests wearing leaver gloves like what you'd wear to handle a small raptor. Nothing is quite as intimidating as a squirrel growling at you and squaring up for a fight. As odd as that sounds, it's true.
