Palm Squirrel

While I was sitting in the balcony I saw this little fellow appear suddenly. At first I thought it was a mouse . I had forgotten  how small the Indian squirrel is. After seeing a European squirrel these Indian palm squirrels look really tiny.  He looked so cute sitting there nibbling something he had found. One of my cats used to catch these little guys and bring them home. I remember when I was young, I used to always try and rescue them. My mum would say that I was wasting my time as they would not survive after being in my cat’s  mouth. But i still went ahead and tried to rescue them..😊
