So I reckon squirrels are pretty cute. I don’t know why all little girls don’t have a squirrel as a pet. There is that scene from the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory where Varuca Salt demands a pet squirrel (in the book it was actually a goose that lays golden eggs but anyway) and I reckon if I was Varuca Salt I would demand to have a pet squirrel too. And I wouldn’t want any of the ponies and the turtles and the puppy dogs that she already has, only the squirrel.
Anyway, squirrels are pretty nice and I would like to have one as a pet and I would take it with me everywhere and it would be called Henry.
This is a picture I took in a park in London of the first squirrel I ever saw.
