Found this little fella inside the cats kennel by the back door. I noticed that their mat inside the kennel was strangely ruffled up so I put my hand in to straighten it up. What a surprise I got ! In the back corner sat a rather frightened red baby squirrel. The fur had not yet fully grown on its body and top of its tail and the ear tufts were not very prominent yet. It did not move at all and seemed frozen to the spot, wishing it had shot up a nearby tree instead of hiding in the kennel. We were carefully carrying the
kennel nearer to the surrounding forest when it suddenly shot out and made a bold bid for freedom into the forest. I now check the kennel every day just in case it returns.
