Everyone seemed to agree that he was the ring inspector, because he's so curious about
00:10
whatever I'm working on.
00:11
Whatever I'm doing with my hands, he wants to be part of.
00:14
So he has to smell it, taste it, look at it, touch it.
00:18
He's very bright.
00:20
He looks you right in the eyes.
00:22
He's really affectionate.
00:25
He's a lot more personality than you would ever think from a squirrel.
00:30
The long-term dream was always to have a shop in Florida.
00:33
So we're here.
00:34
Did you ever imagine that there'd be a squirrel at this dream shop?
00:38
No.
00:39
That was not in the plan.
00:41
Show your wife what you have.
00:45
He was found by a neighbor right in the middle of the street.
00:49
You're a big, big boy, aren't you?
00:52
His eyes were closed.
00:53
He was very tiny.
00:54
The first thing we tried to do was to put it out to see if the mother would reclaim.
00:59
And there was no activity with that.
01:02
So that pretty much confirmed that there was no mother.
01:06
I mean, what's going to happen?
01:09
We started caring for it.
01:11
I had to bottle feed him every three hours through the night.
01:16
He's like grandma.
01:19
She's like mom.
01:22
We spent a lot of time together.
01:24
He was just really sweet and would just sit and fall asleep on me.
01:27
His eyes are open now.
01:29
He's running around a lot.
01:31
Oh my God.
01:32
Oh my God.
01:33
Yes.
01:34
Three or four days in, he was starting to begin to chew.
01:36
It's good to get real food.
01:38
I know.
01:39
You're growing up.
01:41
I had no idea what I was taking on.
01:48
I was surprised at how attached to me he became.
01:53
He literally just wants to be with me.
01:57
He grows incredibly fast.
02:00
He's more to handle now.
02:04
He'll race around.
02:05
He can be scratchy.
02:06
He can be nibbly.
02:08
It's a lot.
02:11
We're slowly in transition.
02:13
We've been taking him out and he starts wandering out in the world.
02:18
He's got a safe place to run back to.
02:21
It's a hard choice.
02:22
The whole point of it was to help him get back to nature and be in that life.
02:27
Charlie has been a surprising friend.
02:31
Animals in the wild are as precious as the animals that we have in our home.
02:38
I will never look at squirrels the same.
02:40
They're a lot more personality than you would think.
