Squirrels have babies twice a year, and here is baby #1 of round 2.

We got 5 more this morning too. Some of the new ones were dreaming, which I hadn't gotten to see before, and they were doing all kinds of cute mouth twitches and little kicks.

So tiny and cute!

Are they pets?

Nope, they are wild squirrels and will be returned there as soon as they are ready.

If they are wild squirrels, why are they inside? Did a tragedy befall their nest/parents? :(

They turn up for a variety of reasons, but we are here for when things do not go as intended. Not sure if this one's backstory, but we will make sure it grows up happy and healthy!
