Every day, a squirrel bangs on the house window: After eight years, they understand what she wants to say


Despite the fact that humans and animals can form incredibly strong ties, we need to be cautious around wildlife. Although it may be difficult to decide exactly how to approach wild animals, we must constantly keep in mind that we cannot interfere with their natural instincts or ability to survive in the wild.

But as this incredible story shows, there are occasions when it might be appropriate to help, especially when it comes to a question of life or death.


In 2009, Brantly Harrison and her family found a four-week-old squirrel that had been attacked by an owl and was close to death. They had no idea that this would be the beginning of a lifelong bond between them and the small animal.

This sweet baby was mine to pick up today. We’ll keep an eye on her till she gets to a treatment center. I’m thrilled to have even a small impact on this baby’s life.


After bringing the squirrel home, the family fed it and took care of it. They decided to call her Bella.

According to Metro, the Harrisons and their new little buddy grew close quite quickly.

After Bella healed, they released her back into the wild.


It’s lovely to have my girl visit me in the morning, even when I look half asleep!

A few years later, a visit
A year later, the family answered the door and there stood Bella, someone they never thought they would see again.

The young squirrel had obviously grown up, but she still felt thankful to the family that had saved her life.

Bella continued to visit their garden every day. She truly belonged to the Harrison family.

Sweet CID stands patiently at the door every day, waiting for Bella to come say hello. I’m always interested to know what each of them is.

A fresh family
One day Bella returned and banged assiduously on their glass, as if she had something important to share.

Bella’s family took her in as soon as they heard she had hurt her foot, providing her medicine and a cozy box to heal in.


But that’s when they understood what Bella was really trying to tell them. As they placed Bella down, they discovered three tiny baby squirrels within the box; these were the three newcomers that Bella had obviously wanted to introduce to her other family.
