Man Found a Tiny Squirrel in a Bag of Mulch. Months later, These Two Are Inseparable
A Reddit user tells the story about finding this tiny creature, dying in a bag of mulch.
Reddit user Nadtacular has a heart of gold for all the creatures on Earth. When opening a bag of mulch to nourish his yard, the Florida native stumbled on to a tiny surprise. Meet Zip, the squirrel Nadtacular saved and befriended.
Nadtacular found Zip as only a baby in need of nourishment and warmth.
So the gardener kept the little guy warm and force-fed him milk.
After two weeks, little Zip was growing and eating on his own – and obviously comfortable with his humans.
A growing body needs plenty of sleep.
At last Zip’s eyes started to open…would the little guy recognize anything?
The squirrel was clearly a bit attached…
…and getting comfortable and playful throughout Nadtacular’s life.
Not being taught to forage for food by an adult, Nadtacular kept feeding Zip.
Nadtacular and Zip have a working relationship – Nad works, Zip begs.
And it doesn’t seem they’ll be separating any time soon.
