One day a man came back home, only to find that a mother squirrel had made a nest of twigs, dried pines and branches on his bed for her two newborn squirrels. Busy with fetching materials for the nest, mother squirrel had no intention of taking the babies with her. Eventually, she stopped coming back at all. Only one of the baby squirrels survived, but even her future was predicted to be grim.
One day a man came back home, only to find that a mother squirrel had made a nest of twigs, dried pines and branches on his bed for her two newborn squirrels
Wildlife rehabilitators Christina and Michael were called out to the unusual incident, and tried to reunite the babies with their mother
However, busy with fetching materials for the nest, mother squirrel had no intention of taking the babies with her
Fortunately, Thumbelina – a now two-year-old Eastern grey squirrel – has been given a new chance at life when Christina and Michael decided to adopt her
Because of an unusual birthing season and the loss of her little sister, Thumb had to grow up by herself without interaction with other squirrels
Everything with Thumb was slow. While most babies could not care less about milk, having already tasted the real food, Thumb was a big baby with a bottle
Unlike other baby squirrels, Thumbelina wasn’t interested in jumping and climbing. She would walk instead of running, and sit instead of climbing
Even despite the best efforts to introduce Thumbelina to other squirrels, she would never want anything to do with them
Now Thumbelina is a happy squirrel who spends her time peacefully with her Mom and Dad, but not without occasionally getting in some sort of trouble!
She loves sugar snap peas, arugula, and avocado. And she absolutely hates outdoors, cold weather, other squirrels and the vacuum cleaner
