Rescued squirrel ...

Belarusian soldiers found this baby squirrel close to death and brought it to their warrant officer, Pyotr Pankratau. He nursed the squirrel to health, feeding it every four hours. Now, two years later, Pankratau is a cab driver and the squirrel, Minsk, is never far from his side.

So adorable. My brother rescued one that stayed with him for a long time. He said watching a movie with it was a bit hard, he'd grab popcorn and stuff it in his ears. He also chewed all the strings off the ship picture my brother had taken years to finish ........ and all the buttons off the remote. But he loved him.

I settle for feeding my regulars when they look in my window like, "Uh, yeah, are you gonna puts some nuts out for us or what?"
