Squirrels

BABY FOX SQUIRRELS

Pinky and the Brain

One is a Genius, the other's insane.

My brother found an orphaned baby squirrel and gave it to me to raise.

The next day he found another.

I named them Pinky & The Brain after the cartoon lab mice and decided to raise them in my own image.

Afternoon nap. Pinky on the left, Brain on the right.

Much hilarity followed.

Pinky

Eating Cheerios

"Hey, I'm trying to eat here!"

Squirrel attacking my nephew!

"Tell me where Brain is!" (my brother)

Pinky escaped from his cage on June 1st, 2007 .

Brain was released shortly after so they could be together.

So far, they have returned regularly for tasty peanuts which they will eat out of my hand. :)

Reunited. They wrestled afterwards.

"Mmm... Brazil nut..."

"Stupid nut is hard to open!"

Comfy chair.

They like to eat while hanging upside down.

Or maybe they just like the crumbs to fall on me.

I think they spend more time upside down than right side up.

Perched on top of his cage. They return to it when it rains.
