Debby Cantlon, who plans to release Finnegan,
the young squirrel, back into the wild, bottle-fed the infant squirrel
after it was brought to her house.
When Cantlon took in the tiny
creature and began caring for him, she found herself with an unlikely
nurse's aide: her pregnant Papillion, Mademoiselle Giselle.
Finnegan was resting in a nest in a cage
just days before Giselle was due to deliver her puppies.
Cantlon and her husband watched as the
dog dragged the squirrel's cage twice to her own bedside before she gave
birth.
Cantlon was concerned, yet ultimately
decided to allow the squirrel out and the inter-species bonding
began.
Finnegan rides a puppy mosh pit of sorts,
burrowing in for warmth after feeding,eventually working his way beneath his
new litter mates.
Two days after giving birth, mama dog
Giselle allowed Finnegan to nurse; family photos and a videotape show her
encouraging him to suckle alongside her litter of five
pups.
Now, Finnegan mostly uses a bottle, but
still snuggles with his 'siblings' in a mosh pit of puppies, rolling atop
their bodies and sinking in deeply for a nap.
Finnegan and his new litter mates, five
Papillion puppies, get along together as if they were meant
to.
Finnegan naps after feeding.
Finnegan makes himself at home with
his new litter mates, nuzzling nose-to-nose for a nap after feeding.
Send this along to brighten someone's day! Wouldn't it be nice if we could all get along like Finnegan and the
gang? Keep loving everyone...........even the squirrelly
ones!!!!!!!!!
