This guy needs a pellet gun for his birthday.

Eventually the squirrel will start to return to its original nature and bite the everloving heck out of this guy!

# 3 Turing Machine said, on September 7th, 2009 at 8:56 am

you can get 10 quid for shooting Squirrel round here only gray one’s mind you.

# 4 bobbo, we all have that nuturing side said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:04 am

FYI–having raised a lot of rats==some take to be hand fed treats very well but others generalize that behavior to biting fingers thinking it is food. Seems to me a slight majority would bite, but maybe I remember the bites more than the smarter ones.

Unless you a sure squirrels don’t act like rats in that way, I’d keep food in the feeder and only handle them for that good healthy man love you are enjoying now.

When dogs get ‘frisky’ they go for your leg. Give this little guy a few more weeks and he will want to give your thumb some love.

Fun vid, I miss the red squirrels that I have raised.

Nice video, Mom… sorry, Marc. :D How long until he’ll move out?

# 7 Buzz said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:25 am

The part they cut out:

“Ouch! Jesus crap, you little bastard! What the… Let go, let GO!”

# 8 Alfred1 said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:33 am

Thanks for this…I am totally surprised how much I have enjoyed your squirrel adventures / pictures.

Pets fill a gap in our lives for sure.

# 9 Marc Perkel said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:36 am

I’m expecting it is likely he’ll run off some time in the next week. But I’m trying to heep him around till he’s a little bigger and smarter.

# 10 chuck said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:49 am

ok, but eventually you are going to have to eat it.

# 11 Jägermeister said, on September 7th, 2009 at 11:06 am

#9 – Marc

Hopefully he’ll have a good life. :)

# 12 noname said, on September 7th, 2009 at 11:21 am

What do you feed it?

# 13 Dans said, on September 7th, 2009 at 11:39 am

Ok, im scared now.

# 14 Marc Perkel said, on September 7th, 2009 at 12:03 pm

He’s eating dog milk and peanuts and raisins.

# 15 The Don said, on September 7th, 2009 at 1:30 pm

I think that if I were in your position, I would be saying much the same things as you did in your video.
From an outsiders point of view though, it does sound a bit pervy saying “yeah, I’m his mommy, Yeahh”.
Thankyou for sharing this whole event with us though.

# 16 Awake said, on September 7th, 2009 at 1:46 pm

We have about a dozen bird houses around our house, so I can relate to enjoying raising critters.

# 17 ECA said, on September 7th, 2009 at 1:52 pm

Wheres my BB gun??

I dont know WHICH squirrel to shoot.

# 18 The0ne said, on September 7th, 2009 at 1:57 pm

WTF, 4:37 minutes of this? This seems more like a bad case of prevert-ness than anything but substituting the girl with the squirrel. I was gagging after the minuter of this obsessive petting and talking. Poor little squirrel. He seem to walk to run away but can’t :/

# 19 booshtukka said, on September 7th, 2009 at 2:47 pm

#18 No shit :/ This is fucking creepy.

# 20 Mr Diesel said, on September 7th, 2009 at 3:10 pm

Marc,

Don’t take any shit from the others on the site who have a problem with your squirrel.

# 21 Miguel said, on September 7th, 2009 at 3:45 pm

We don’t have squirrels here in my country (at least I never saw one), and I’m loving every one of your posts! Keep’em coming!

# 22 The0ne said, on September 7th, 2009 at 4:04 pm

Seriously, I’m a pet lover. I’ve raised dogs, cats, birds, fishes and this is even creeping me out. That is just way too much “touching” going on in that video and the poor little squirrel doesn’t seem to enjoy it after the first minute or so.

# 23 Alfred1 said, on September 7th, 2009 at 4:23 pm

#22 U are one sick puppy…

A good caption before clicking the play button:

“Hand from outer space engulfs squirrel”

# 24 tecban said, on September 7th, 2009 at 4:50 pm

Cool video Marc, looks fun.

Meanwhile, a few posters seem to be projecting a bit.

# 25 LibertyLover said, on September 7th, 2009 at 5:27 pm

Coolness, in mass quantities.

# 26 Pets are cool said, on September 7th, 2009 at 5:31 pm

I have had a few squires over the years. They learn to knock on the door from the handrail. When I feed them they just sit down next to me and eat. They are very friendly.

# 27 Bud said, on September 7th, 2009 at 5:42 pm

I still say squirrels are a good eat!

# 28 Professor Johnnycakes said, on September 7th, 2009 at 6:19 pm

OMG… so WHO milked the dog?!?!

# 29 Help I'm Trapped said, on September 7th, 2009 at 7:01 pm

WTF!!! Is the squire a prisoner or a detainee? The damn thing is trapped in that cage hanging from the tree. It can’t get out unless the jolly fat man lets him out.

# 30 sargasso said, on September 7th, 2009 at 9:45 pm

Marc, ignore the Squirrel Envy, demonstrated by some of the postee’s. We all appreciate the care and thought placed to save and nurture this small wild animal. And as demonstrable proof of man’s deeper maternal instinct, a request for a clinical post, let us know if you experience any unusual personal weight development or symptoms of male lactation.

# 31 Marc Perkel said, on September 8th, 2009 at 5:28 am

This squirrel gets me laid so say what you want.

# 32 Mark Derail said, on September 8th, 2009 at 9:12 am

#31 hahahahaha

Now to train him to fetch things in exchange for peanuts, like a guy did with crows.

It’s not that Marc is just petting him, he’s touching the squirrel in “odd” ways. Even seen how petting is done? That’s not petting. What Marc is doing is disturbing to some extent. I’m no sicko but I’ve raise many many pets for over 30 years now and this is just sick to see. Sure you can argue that “petting” is different to some people, and that’s fine. However, you like it I guess :o

# 34 Marc Perkel said, on September 8th, 2009 at 11:17 am

You don’t pet a squirrel like you do a cat. It’s a different beast. They like being rolled up.

# 35 ubiquitous talking head said, on September 8th, 2009 at 11:28 am

Interesting to actually see perkel. I’d like to see videos of all the regulars here introducing themselves, pets optional.

Or has that been done in the forum already?

# 36 Bob said, on September 8th, 2009 at 6:42 pm

Dang Marc, all that heavy breathing. That little critter get you all hot and bothered?
