An Ol' Broad's Ramblings

New Addition

If there is one thing about my sister, she is a major critter person.  So, what do we find on this trip?  Her newest addition to the zoo is actually quite small, and obviously not your normal “house pet”.  Her name is Sunshine.  Why?  Who the heck knows….this is my sister, after all.

So, without further ado….meet Sunshine!

Yes, ladies and gentlemen….my sister has a ‘pet’ squirrel. Why would anyone have a pet squirrel? It seems a couple of her many dogs brought this tiny, hairless creature to her doorstep, evidently, still quite alive. So, over a period of time, she hand fed this little critter until it started getting fur, and then, it was too late for her to let go. Sunshine is now about 4 months old. Will my sister allow this wild critter return to the wild? Well, it seems this little squirrel has decided she’s mom, so who knows.

Hey, at least the only little critters I bring into the house are cats!

    I can envision a scene from Christmas Vacation happening at the Ol’ Broad Christmas gathering.

    LMAO  Luckily, or unluckily, we’ll be at Ick & Brat’s this afternoon.  They don’t have a squirrel.  :)   At least not yet.  Don’t think SP has brought home any more four legged critters in a while.  Heh.

    We don’t have any new additions! SP has not brought home any strays and that’s the way I intend to keep it! LOL
