i call her Roo for short for the same reason that i call Eclipse, E. she is a redish-brown squirrel that i tried to release a while ago, but she kept on coming back to my house and chittering at me. she even hitched a ride on the back of my car without my knoledge and came to school with me once! at that point i knew that i had to bring her back into my home before she ended up hurting herself. so when i saw her in the school, i put her in my locker and she stayed there all day. (i had a bit of struggle keeping her in there when i opened my locker between classes, and people called me "squirrel girl" for a week after because she jumped on someones head and i had to deal with that.) and don't worry, she had plenty of food because i shared my lunch with her. after school she sat on my shoulder while i drove home, and when i got home i realized that she was very muddy and dirty and hadn't been eating very much. the first thing i did was give her a lot of water, then gave her a bath in the sink, then gave her a bunch of bird seed. (i didn't have any of the food i would normally give to squirrels at that time because i wasn't expecting her) after she had eaten her fill of bird seed, i made her a little bed to sleep in and she fell asleep almost imediately. i was very concerned because she usually didn't sleep right after eating, but it turned out she was just really tired from her long day, and she is 100% healthy.
