Thanks to Amanda for this one, even though she probably has no clue I snagged this from her site.

I ommitted the "Four Albums I Can't Live Without" because, well, I live off of my iRiver and never buy albums.

Small Furry Cuteness

Squirrels give me the warm fuzzies. At least live squirrels do. Not those poor unrecognizable fellas that never made it across the road.They make me sad.
Yesterday I took over the care of another little orphaned squirrel thanks to my friend and her mom who just knew I was having squirrel withdrawl. Well, that's not really true, but I did find myself staring longingly at the little critters as they gathered 'round to raid my mom's bird feeder, similar to the way young women stare at babies in strollers with storks in their eyes. Since I am obviously (thankfully) missing the (human baby) mothering instinct, I at least make up for it when it comes to helpless little critters.Now my bathroom is standing-room-only again; filled with a squirrel cage , the smell of formula eminates from the kitchen sink, and the cats are freaking out . Ok, well the cats freak out when I change a trash bag, but this is a mass freak-out of mammoth proportions directly aimed at the (delicious,tender, young) squirrel living right on the other side or the bathroom door.

I am guessing this guy is about 6-7 weeks old, although he is a bit behind in his development. Some good formula and care should bring him up to speed in a few days.
