Aaah that is sweet! I thought she was getting a little thick around the middle!I hope she doesn't decide to give birth in your attic. We had a momma squirrel do that a few years ago (she got in through the attic fan) and what an experience it was getting them out of there. At first we thought we only had one squirrel up there (lots of scratching, etc.) and we hired a man to come and trap her while she was out scavenging. He put a trap on the roof and when she came home she went inside and was caught. He released her somewhere far away. He said her physical appearance told him she had recently given birth. Well after she was taken away we still heard scratching upstairs. Turns out there were two little ones up there. Hubby found one and assumed it was an "only child." A few days later we smelled an odor and he went back up and found there was a sibling who had unfortunately died under the insulation! I hope Shirley chooses a nicer spot for her little ones. You must get pictures if you can!
