New neighbors!

13. That is so cool! I used to have a couple squirrels who came to eat from my hand. One even came and

looked in the back door when she was hungry and I wasn't out there. A few times she disappeared for months and I thought that she'd died since I'd already been feeding her for six years and according to the web, that's how long squirrels live. But for two more years, she showed up and asked for food when I least expected it.

And one of her babies came to play with us one day. My dad and I were out in the yard and the baby appeared and stood between us. He stayed and played with us for almost an hour -



Then I got a new puppy and when he was about a year old, he caught a squirrel and played with it til it died. I could no longer feed them or attract them to my yard and I really, really miss them.
