Baetril was very intent on trying to bury this piece of butternut squash somewhere on Mom. He had buried it under her toes about 5 times before he resorted to putting it in her pocket. 😂
It was been 2 days since he bit someone.
Squirrels are not good pets for many reasons, and it's illegal to keep them in many areas unless you are licensed to do so. Social media will make it look like squirrels are so sweet, but they are still wild animals regardless of how long they have been inside a house, and their personalities can vary widely just like humans with only a very small percentage being calm and the majority becoming more protective of their area and nasty about it. A healthy squirrel deserves a free life outdoors where it will be much happier.

Baetril was scavenging around and found part of the peanut bag that Grandma cut open so she could feed the wild squirrels outside. He knows that all sorts of treats can come in these crinkly packages, so he must have been disappointed to not find anything inside. Peanuts are especially bad for indoor squirrels as they are very high in phosphorus and can negate any calcium intake, so he only gets one if he happens to find one on the floor.
It has been 1 day since he bit someone. He was fine with Mom despite her using different shampoo, so it's still a mystery as to what he smells on her when she's away for a night.

Little squirrels make big messes! Baetril loves his calcium block (you can see he's almost completely finished this one off), but he leaves behind a fine powder in the process of grinding it down. When he does this in his room, he tracks footprints all over the place! 😂
It has been 0 days since he bit someone. Mom made sure to bring the same soap and lotion when she stayed overnight elsewhere this time, but Baetril still picked up on something different and started attacking her, although it wasn't immediate. He will recognize her by sight and sound and will want to jump on her, but the second he's on her, he thinks it's a wolf in sheep's clothing. 😅

Baetril enjoyed going around with one of his squirrelly stuffies on the cat tree. It was the toy that squeaked in case you were wondering. Make sure you see his little hops of excitement about it towards the end of the video!
It has been 1 day since he bit someone. He was good with Dad once again yesterday. 😊

Baetril was wrestling with Dad and his toys when he stopped and just enjoyed a rub down while snuggling with the platypus twins. ❤️ Can't say he's ever done that before! And yes, we know his teeth need to be trimmed soon. 😬
Unfortunately it has been 0 days since he bit someone. As we've mentioned before, Baetril's mood can change without a warning, so when he was wrestling with Dad in the kitchen, Baetril turned around and clawed him hard accompanied by a quick nip which hurt all the more because his teeth are super sharp and uneven right now. We thought he was just too worked up from wrestling, but when Dad went to pet him later after that, Baetril turned around and clawed him again so Dad went into hiding once more. Hopefully he's in a better mood with him today!

Baetril enjoys basking in the sunlight with Mom. ☀️ The sunshine is good to give him some Vitamin D to process all the calcium in his diet.
It has been 7 days since he bit someone.

This routine is so Baetril! Scratch, jump on the blinds, cool off on the air filter, then run away. If the air filter is not turned up to the high setting, he will gently bite our fingers to get us to push the buttons to set it that way, although technically his big feet are what changed the settings in the first place! 😂
It has been 5 days since he bit someone.

If there's one thing that Baetril knows how to do, it's identify his scent and leave more of it behind. 😂 He was sniffing this spot for at least 15 seconds before we started recording. Dad swears he cleaned it up not even an hour before, so Baetril marked it again. 🙃
It has been 4 days since he bit someone.

Baetril eats very healthy, but when he first gets his bowl, he is only interested in getting the good stuff first so he can get to playing sooner. Here he's chomping down on some spaghetti squash seeds, but he ignores everything else to go run off at the end. He gets back to it throughout the day though.
It has been 3 days since he bit someone. We had a few dicey moments where he got agitated and scratched Mom and Dad on a few separate occasions, but we didn't get bitten.

Sunday Funday! Baetril loves playing on the cat tree now that he's not scared of it. 😉

Baetril resumed his normal behavior with Mom yesterday, but passing that initial sniff test after he's been feisty is always a little scary. 😂 He was good with Dad, too, so everyone is quite happy here.

Baetril and Dad enjoy some refrigerator time together. ❤️ But...
It has been 0 days since he bit someone. Mom spent the night elsewhere and must have carried back a different smell because although Baetril was so happy to see her initially, he nearly immediately started attacking and biting her hand once he jumped on her. Washing up and changing clothes didn't make it better as he repeated the same behavior each time, so she had to keep her distance from him for the rest of the day while Dad kept him busy. It was heartbreaking because he would come running from across the room to jump on her only for him to start trying to bite her, so she had to keep running from him. 🥺
