This squirrel was pregnant and she knew who to turn to for refuge. He had never forgotten the people who had saved him and he knew that his child would also be safe in this family.
This story began many years ago when a girl found this squirrel that had fallen out of the nest on a cold day. The poor animal was calling for its mother, who never came.
Then the girl took it and named it Dingetjie. The girl warmed the animal and was afraid that it could not survive, she did not even know how to feed the animal. The animal was so small that his eyes hadn’t even opened.
So the girl and her friend tried to feed him and learned how they do it. He read a lot to find out how they do it. Little did they know that it would be so difficult to take care of this animal, they also made a bed with a box for the baby.
When the squirrel was big enough, the girl realized that it would be best to release it into the forest, where the wild animal would be more comfortable. The forest was nearby.
They thought the story ended like this, even though they expected the squirrel to come back at any moment. So one day the girl woke up and saw the squirrel lying in her bed . Six months had passed and the animal had gotten bigger. At first they thought the animal was eating too much, but later they found out that she was pregnant.
Finally the little one was born but unfortunately he was dead. It was a great misfortune for the girl, but she realized that the reason was probably that the squirrel was too small to get pregnant.
However, a year later she again gave birth to a child, only this time he was stronger and healthier. She was a very good mother.
