Errrrrrrch! Splat! I shielded my eyes as squirrel guts flew through the air.” Calla, help my save the baby squirrel,” yelled Amelie my 5-your old friend that can drive. I ran out front and scooped up the baby. His eyes were wide with fright and was paralyzed with fear. As I looked into her black,glittering squirrel eyes I knew one thing. He was staying with us.
Patty is what we named him and at first was a nuisance. His mother had never potty trained him so Patty never learnt where to go! i would come home to a pungent smell and a yellow puddle in the hall! Also there are no such thing as squirrel-sitters so when me and Amelie get home from school we had to look everywhere for him. But eventually she learned and is now the cutest squirrel ever!
Amelie and I finally let Patty go but it was a sad leaving. We had a great bond together and it was sad to watch him go. Somehow we both knew that he would comeback. Someday…
