Seto finds a very tame baby squirrel, left behind at the park. Baby Squirrel becomes Kaiba Corp’s newest hire. (And an acclaimed duelist! Although they’ve been finding opponents’ missing cards, stashed in an oak tree...no comment from Baby Squirrel)
Requested by my dear friend @rainstormcolors 💙 Love you rainstorm!! 💙

Sketch compilation of Seto with a squirrel. Leftmost sketch is Seto in a purple Kaiba Corp sweater, turning to the right, feeding a peanut to a black squirrel perched on his shoulder. He says, “You’re a little too friendly...Did someone keep you as a pet? Are you lost?”
Top middle: Seto asleep at his computer, with the baby squirrel asleep on his head. The blue light from the laptop glows on them.
Middle: Seto asks the squirrel, who’s perched on his arm, “Do you know anything about shareholding? Want to attend the 3 o’clock for me?”
Bottom middle: Seto, in a blue turtleneck, closes his eyes and smiles contentedly as the squirrel sits on his shoulder and snuggles against his temple.
Top Right: Seto in Battle City dueling gear holds up a magic card to the squirrel, who reaches for it. Seto asks the squirrel for dueling advice: “What do you think? ... Excellent. I thought so, too.”
Bottom Right: The squirrel holds a Duel Monsters card in his mouth and winks at the viewer. Seto, offscreen, shouts: “Hey!! Give it back!”
Oooooooookay, so I found an abandoned baby squirrel today, and I’m just gonna blame not updating Good Mistakes on that. I’m finally living the crazy life all those AO3 writers talk about!! Wish me luck with being a single mom of a rambunctious baby squirrel for the night.
One of our cats found a baby squirrel on Saturday. Noah rescued the baby from the cat's clutches and wrapped it up in a towel and put it in a box to keep it safe and comfortable.
Once it was secure, he made four or five phone calls to various veterinarians and rescue organizations until he found a rehabber who lived near us.
Neither of us were too optimistic, but when he dropped the squirrel off, it apparently perked up and jumped and tried to escape. The rehabber was able to get it in her special pouch, though, so Noah came home.
Yesterday the rehabber texted and said that our cat had saved the baby squirrel from starvation. She had fed and medicated the baby, and she gained 17% of her body fat overnight!!!
The rehabber told us the little girl was being rotated around with other various rescues, and that they were all lying all over her, but that she was very tolerant.
Look how much weight she gained! ^^^ (And see the bonus squirrel sibling.)
Apparently, along with it being the season for baby squirrels falling out of their nests, the intense heat is making it worse, and lots of babies are falling out of the nests far too early to fend for themselves. I'm so glad we were able to save this one, and that there are people in the world doing this kind of good.
