When Brantley Harrison and her family rescued a tiny,injured squirrel back,then released her back into the wild,they didn't expect to ever see her again.Nine years later,however,little Bella,they called the squirrel Bella,still comes to visit them almost every day—as long as snacks are provided,of course.
As a baby,the terrible attack made by an owl (貓頭鷹) left Bella near death,she was carefully taken in by the Greenville County,South Carolina family,and raised by them alongside three other squirrels named Larry,Curly,and Moe.Bella stayed with the Harrisons until she had healed successfully thanks to a regular diet of fruit,nuts,and baby food,and was ready to jump on the trees in the forest.The sweet squirrel never goes too far from her adopted home,though,and stops by to say hello whenever she can,despite how much time has passed.
"Bella sits right at the front door waiting for someone to notice she has come by for a visit.If no one notices her,she will jump over to the dining room window to wait for someone to see her," Brantley told The Dodo.The little lady just isn't ready to part with the family that succored her life.Whenever she stops by,she asks for nothing more than a handful of nuts.
What is the most amazing part?A few years after Bella's original stay at the Harrison house,she found her way back to them with an injured foot—and a belly full of babies—spending another few months of recovering. "It was truly amazing to watch the baby I raised raise her own babies," Brantley said.Bella now even has her own Instagram page,where her human family documents her adventures,with almost 4 thousand followers!
