Hi Everyone! Sorry for the delay in getting this episode up. The Christmas video and the fact I got sick delayed its completion. You may hear my voice is a bit off. I was hoping my voice over would be normal by now 😅 Hope you enjoy this episode! We're almost half way through the series. Still 4 episodes on the way! Also the pyjamas were a gift. I can't stand Vegemite haha
Absolutely love it 😍
As an aussie ill ignore the vegemite dig 😂
Fyi its great with eggs and cheese.....
Your little hopping nutcase, pun intended, is doing great, even if hes a bit unco, dont worry theres one thing that drives a squirrel more than its stomach, girl squirrels!
He'll be fine but i doubt you'll ever be totally rid of him, and i doubt youd ever want to be, youre not foolin anyone woman 😂
👍🏻👍🏻
Take care
@@jeffmunkynutz1568 Your gonna have to explain how you eat it with eggs and cheese. I thought ya'll put it on toast?
Toast, then egg, cheese and grill it, its also great for bolstering up the beefyness of a stew if you hate that watery stew thing 🤷🏼
Can't stand Vegemite because you much prefer Marmite? ;P
Whenever you feel it's cruel or wrong to have him in the house, just remember, if it wasn't for you having him there with you, he wouldn't have stood a chance, you're being his squirrel mum and that's what he needs right now more than anything x
❤❤❤
Love him he is just a growing kid, has to explore and through that learn. Dont let him sleep out poor baby
Put som braches in to have something to climb don't you think
Nature is cruel.
I would say not to feel guilty. It was either givin Ru a chance in the house with you or leave it outside its chances of survival were none. Therefore you gave Ru a chance of living and whatever the outcome the important thing is that it has more chance than ever to survive. If it decide to stay close to you if he has any problems adapting to the wild life or maybe full integration difficult to say. Many history here on CZcams that some squirels were not integrating well others fully returned to the wild but they always returned to visit their saviors.
You do understand what happens after he grows up healthy and gets released, right? You look at the little bits of damage around the house and fondly remember how each one got there, how happy Roo was, how much you enjoyed watching him learn. You feel the squirrel-shaped hole in your life. Then you look at the big, empty release enclosure, the supplies you still have, the knowledge you've accumulated... And you join a rehabber network, pick up an orphan or three at each of two breeding seasons a year, and for the rest of your life there's around four squirrels a year in your life.
It's happened to friends. It almost happened to me. And you've got the vibe: I'm betting it will happen to you.
G'day Dani. I think in some way You'll always be his Mum and I would not be at all surprised if one day he shows up on your doorstep with a family of his own. Another beautiful video and I look forward to seeing the rest of his story and yours. Feel better soon!! ❤Jon from Aus!!
That’s exactly what’s happened to me and my wife to the word hahaaaa damage and small scratches on my legs are just the start but you’re right it seems there’s always going to be squirrels in our lives 😳
The fact that you are willing to endure the rambunctious behavior of this little scamp proves your dedication to what you are doing. I for one have the greatest respect for you, Dani.
In all respects, you know that she also gets money from doing it?
@@Flasher732 So what? Jealous? She is self employed. Why don't you start a business instead of complaining about people who do?
@@jamesryan7684 I love the work Dani do (also subscriber) and I have a lot of respect for her. I just think that transparency and reality are important. I am in the process of creating a business right now.
@Flasher732
That was NOT "transparency", but your jealousy certainly IS transparent. STUFF IT.
You can’t be hard on yourself. Roo survived because of you. I bet he’s been a bundle of fun to have around. Different for sure. Your edging him out the right way. You’ve done an amazing job. ❤you both clearly have love for each other. A bond between different species is incredible
Didn't realize at first that these videos obviously are delayed. He is probably all grown up and moved out already. Looks like this took place during summer. Hope he survives winter.
Squirrels can live up to 10 years. Why should this one be already an adult and moved back into the wild just because one summer has passed? 🙂
@cristelelizabethjohn1661
Squirrels are fully out of the nest around 12 weeks, which you would know if you looked it up. This is his first Winter. By 9 months he will be fully adult.
Is there anything more adorable than a sleeping baby squirrel? ❤🐿❤ Thank you so much Dani! 🙏🏻
I really dont think so 💛
i love this videos of Roo, wish i could play with him, he is so adorable
Roo is impossibly cute. The respect and conscience you have for a little soul that belongs in the forest made this post truly moving.
I love how you two are caring for Roo! Years ago, we rescued a baby squirrel under similar circumstances. We raised him to good health and found a lady in the area who rehabs animals back to the wild. We sure loved the time we got to spend with Gumby, though!
There is nothing better than caring for wild animals!
Especially Squirrels are so intelligent🐿
Oh Dani don't regret. You enabled his survival. Enjoy every moment as they will too soon be over and he will be loose soon enough. My Rocky never came back to me after he moved out. He visited a few times but never let me touch him again. Treasure this with all you have.
Between all the chaos and horror in the world, it's good to watch videos like this from time to time.
Agreed
Roo looks like he is literally in good hands. I’m so happy that you are doing this for him, you have a sweet soul.
I agree with you about the dilemma of imprinting on humans. I’m really hoping that he can make the transition back to the wild. Such a beautiful video!
😁😊❤️🐿
❤☺️
You’ve done the most incredible job Dani. Roo has survived because of your dedication and without your intervention he wouldn’t be here. He will thrive in the wild and you’ll feel much easier about hand-rearing him. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story with us. Xx
You saved him, you don't have too feel bad. You're doing everything so he can survive. That takes time. I have faith in you!🥰🐿❤👍🏻
Aw you..scared me for a sec about his fall. Glad he is ok. I dont think I could take it if Roo didn't make it. I know he gets on your nerves sometimes and that he needs to be in the wild. But you're going to miss him. maybe he will remain nearby and visit when he is grown and has a family.
Lovely work, Dani. Don't feel bad for a second about having put the squirrel inside your home for a while, you work towards giving the squirrel a full life in the only way possible and the squirrel felt safe and loved, anyone can see that.
Loved playing tag on the chair back. I saved a baby squirrel that would play tag with me in the yard.
I don't know why I stumbled across this series and have become so invested in this squirrel.
Same
I would literally go nuts with joy to see Dani in a snow white costume! She is the real life snow white! ;)'
I can appreciate the chaos! But, he is such a darling. I don't think anyone could resist his charm! You're doing a great thing.
His mom was so beautiful ❤ Rest in peace
I know its cruel Roo not being in his natural habitat! But moma squirrel (you) is doing a great job to encourage this. Brilliant ❤
They are feisty but return everything with Squirrel Love 😍🥰😘🐾🐾💖
And so one receives the nickname Squirrel Girl, or short Sqirl. Best wild nature wishes for 2024.
Okay, I need to stop smiling now. So much sweetness! Can't wait for the next episode!
Having been a part-time surrogate uncle to a rescued baby squirrel many, many years ago I can't even begin to put into words how much I enjoy your videos. Thank you very, very much for bringing back such fond memories.
Letting go is the best way to give Roo his freedom to be himself as a squirrel 🐿️
You have done an amazing job with him and it shows, the love you have for him will never fade.
Best wishes Dani on giving Roo a chance to shine.❤❤
The world would be such a better place if there were more kind hearted souls like you.
I hope he comes back to visit after you release him! He’s so cute!
Mom and her boyfriend are doing such a wonderful job raising Roo! And to watch you stroke Roo to sleep in your hand is beyond precious. And preparing Roo for getting back into the wild by making that enclosure is a great idea. So sorry to see his nose bleed from that fall but it looks like he made a quick recovery. Of course you must know that because you are Roo's mom he will always make visits to you after he is released into the wild. I remember one night I stroked my ferret to sleep when he was laying on the floor waiting for me to stroke him to sleep. He had free roam of my apartment but loved to sleep in a type of hammock I made under my couch. I had a very large cage for him for his food and water and litter box but he preferred to make his deposits on my bathroom rug and wait until I got home to feed him because he liked a little water in his food.
What a Beauty he is this little squirrel you adopted! I am sure that he finally will end up as the king of the biggest tree in your forest, thanks to your attention, kindness and love. Your story about the squirrel is a bright ray of sunlight in this dark period in a seemingly cruel and unfair world. I cannot help being a bit personal now, but this morning, the first day of the year 2024, I received a phone call from the doctor in the ICU telling me my mom is in a coma and probably wont make it again - so I just arrived back from her vigil there, she is still in coma but fighting to survive, I know. She was born and raised in a small village in the north of Sweden in Norrbotten, maybe not far from your squirrel forest. Your story about the squirrel gave me hope after the ominous wake up phone call this morning. Thanks Dani and I am so looking forward to the next episode of the injured squirrel saga and I am huge fan of all of your productions. TLC for the soul. Thanks.
Love how u play chase on your body with him. Just like what they do w siblings in the trees. Yat Danni
Seeing Roo🐿 sleeping in your hands is the cutes 💗💗💗
I can see from how you care for Little Red you will make an outstanding mother one day. I love your program. from USA
Squirrels are such fascinating animals.
They are so cute.
Truly, you and Juan are special humans. You, especially. Roo chose you to protect and save him, and you did. And even while taking care of him, you are always thinking of his future and survival, and respecting that he's a wild animal. You two are simply gems.
❤ Roo, he is such a gift to you and shared with all of us. Live long and prosper, propelled by those who love him ❤
Lovely story and very informative.
I'm from Canada and we have an abundance of squirrels.
Many different types of squirrels.
I live in Ontario.
In some places, it's against the law, to feed squirrels and other animals.
There's a reason, for this law and I know you understand, why
If an animal is injured or is a baby, that's different.
We have vets and animal rehabilitation centers.
Sometimes, they have too many animals to care for, so people end up caring for them. Watching your video, gives me some clues, on how to look after a squirrel, if I need to.
Thank you for this video.
I also learned from other, similar videos, on CZcams, from other people, as well.
Having squirrels and other animals, as pets, is not intentional.
Sometimes, animals need our help, too.
They're mammals, like us humans, too.
Nice video.
He is quite the little bundle of energy!! 😂 You and your boyfriend are quite the blessing to him. You took on a huge commitment with him and you have done a wonderful job!!
2:35 sleeping and chirping! The absolute cutest thing. I died a bit.
Awe makes me cry and laugh….how awesome is Roo….💕what a fabulous job you are both doing with him
Sending my love ❤ so cute bubba squirrel especially when asleep
The young squirrels are being naughty and having fun. He is like your little child, full of fun and energy. Adorable, warm family.
He's not a child. Don't be silly.
What a cutie. Must be difficult balancing loving the cuteness with being a wild animal and getting him back to the wild.
Also, so glad MPB is sponsoring! Sold all my old equipment and got all my new stuff from them! Best place for building a setup without breaking the bank
Really beautiful Dani. Thank you! But in the next episode Roo gets a talent agent and so begins a different game! 😅😅
Beautiful. Hope that Roo makes a full recovery back into the wild. Maybe he will have a family of his own. Thanks to you for rescuing him, now he has a chance.
Such a good and no doubt unexpected for you series. The cutest thing ever and so much drama. Next post please.
Hello from Midway,Texas 👍you’re doing an amazing job with him, he will be fine !!
This is my favourite thing on the internet, right now. I love this.
Such a bundle of pure love and Life ❤️
Wonderful, the details Dani! Your photography inspires. Roo could not get a better care with your passion for him, squirrels and wild animals in general. Karma!
Your baby Rue videos bring so much joy to me. He is so adorable. May he gradually adjust well to the forest and live a full squirrel life 🐿 !
You are doing an awesome job raising Roo, for the return to the wild. Well done so happy he met you!
Bless you and thank you for rescuing this precious little creature.
Great respect for your dedication to help this animal towards a naturali life !!
Dani, you are a angel for helping Roo mature in a safe environment. He had no chance without the kindness of your neighbor and your household. Rescuing babies of any species is never cruel. Look at it from his point of view, yummy food, crazy all day long, and a pocket to sleep in. Enjoy your time with him. He will most likely act like he has completely forgotten you after he acclimates to the outside world. I'm hoping for a video in a year when he shows up and friends you, I can’t wait to see the look on your face then. Roomis the luckiest squirrel on earth! Good luck, smile, you are doing the right thing.
The voice overs, storytelling, and music really capture the beauty of your relationship!
Thank you for rescued little Roo…and trying to preparing him for the woods too 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊😉👍👍
Happy new year Dani and Juan! And thank you Dani for taking us along with you to enjoy the cuteness of Roo 😃
Best video ever. Thank you for taking us on this journey of nurturing Roo and preparing him for his natural habitat.❤
It's so wonderful to follow Roo's story, he is such a cute and active little guy, such charming moments and in the end the hope that he can return to nature, thank you so much Dani, I'm looking forward to the next episodes 🐿❤️
i miss my squirrel i had..so sweet fun pet very busy.amazing videoing
så sött han är :-) har alltid velat ta hand om en liten ekorrunge. nu har du haft den fantastiska möjligheten. du ska vara lycklig som har fått göra det :-) vilken tur han fick som fick dig som mamma : - )

You’re a great storyteller, and I can’t wait to see what happens with little Roo next! 😊
Dani😊I want to wish you every success in your private and professional life, happy New Year 2024
Presses little squirrel Rue survived because he has awesome step parents ❤
LOVE that your doing this for him 💖 from California 🐇🌻
Little Rue is certainly a chaotic teenager! What an opportunity for a red squirrel enthusiast to foster a baby red squirrel. If it weren't for you patiently being his mum, he wouldn't have survived. He is lucky he crossed paths with you, Dani! Happy New Year to you, Juan, and Rue. I'm enjoying my Red Squirrel 2024 Calendar, which I hung up today January 1, 2024. Jenny USA
Soooo cute footage Dani. It touches my heart watching him and it hurts seeing him with a bleeding nose. Great to see his trust in his mom taking care as much as possible to him. I cross my fingers that once he will enjoy his wild life in the woods. Many, many thanks to you and Juan for all your efforts providing him a good start and encourage him to fight. Dont be to annoyed about his teenage chaotic life. As you may know, mums get it always back from their own kids, I mean, remember your teenage times 😀 CU
Your doing very well, Dani, Juan and Roo. I could watch this all day long 😀 Happy 2024! 🎉
This is wonderful. I'm really enjoying the updates. Seeing Roo running and playing makes my day ❤
Glad you're feeling better
Great video, what a lucky Squirrel 🐿️. Keep well& Happy New Year 👍🇬🇧
amaziingly well produced as always
You are doing amazing job ❤ thank you for the care ❤
Happy New Year Dani
I have no doubt he will be curious and cautious with human's. You however, he won't hesitate when he returns with a mate eventually.
They too will trust more though his mate will hesitate.
Hopefully no serious issues with fall's. I realize this was filmed months ago.
All of our squirrels left the "nest" just shy of six months. Most didn't return for as much as an entire year if not longer.
You wonder if nature took it's course but internally rewarding seeing them again knowing you must have done a good job.❤
Dani and Juan you are special human beings. Thank you for this. Happy new year!
Happy New Year! Dani thanks for sharing this amazing story with us.
A little high-speed bundle of cuteness. Nice Vegemite pants. G'day from Australia.
This cute animal obviously trusts you and accepts you as his parents. I always ask myself whether he understands that you rescued his life and do your best to release him into the wild, or whether he just lives through the situation without knowing what is normal for his species? Hopefully, he will be able to survive in the wild nature without the normal teaching by a squirrel mother. In any case, it must be an experience for you to deeply connect with an individuum of another species. Hopefully humans will learn to accept other animals as full and valuable living beings with their own rights. Happy New Year!
So so cute, really love squirrels. ❤ Thanks for sharing this parts of Roo's life. Can't wait to see the next episode.😍
Such a stunning series. Love Roo. He is so lucky to have you rehabilitate him.
Many blessings to you and yours this New Year!!!
19:40 From being a handfull to being a handfull ;)
Thank you for doing so much to help his transition to a wild life and Happy New Year to you all.
Greetings from the USA!. Happy New Year!....My heart melts watching you play with your squirrel friend. Hoping your new year is fruitful and fun. Thanks for sharing your stories and adventures.
You do realise what will happen not too far down the track. You'll hear this scratching at your front door, and Roo, and a whole lot of little Roo's will come running through your front door!! Before you know it, they'll be going through your house destroying everything not nailed or tied down!!!😁😁🥰😝😝🤣🤣🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿
Back at work. It's raining and traditionally the most depressing day of the year. This really cheered me up. Thanks Dani. Now, I really should check some emails or something!
Take care Dani. Mother Nature bless you .❤❤❤ 🐿 🐿 🐿
Happy new year Dani, looking forward to more content in 24❤❤
Hi Dani, after my morning routine I watched your video. It totally made my day 🥰
I love your videos. You’re an exceptional storyteller and documentary maker. Roo could melt the hardest of hearts ❤. Love seeing Roo’s progress.
GOOD DAY Dani. We all rejoice in the chaos, which is RUU'S way of being alive, we are thrilled to see how tenderly you put her to sleep, we laugh at her slips and games, we are curious about her looks at the field, and the shudder at the tremendous blow the left her blending. But above all we understand you, without experience and suddenly you become a mother, whit her fears, responsibilities, frustrations, tiredness, but above all whit that LOVE that see transmits to us. THANK YOU. HAPPY New Years, may it bring you Peace, Happiness and the LOVE that you give us in your videos. HAPPY 2024. 🐿🥂🎉💖💋
Happy new year! Squirrels are my "totem" animals. I love you channel ;)
Beautifully filmed and edited. Fantastic work, so enjoyable to watch. well done.
Every time it cut to a shot of Roo sleeping it was like a jumpscare but for cuteness.
Beautiful, he'll love the outdoors in his own time 😊
Rue's energy is phenomenal - acrobatic and so agile. Your patience in nursing him back to health phenomenal. The desire to get him outside quickly very wise - will relieve your conflictions. In the meantime, you will learn an enormous lot during this whole Rue episode. The 24/7 connections with him may hopefully reveal some unique squirrel behaviours you can add with your photographic studies.
Magnificent environment and great photography. Strange to see Vegemite up there - LOL. Really enjoyed this - very good timing for release of the video as a good news story to commence the New Year.
