A year after couple saved squirrel, she returns pregnant
According to Simone, the squirrel often came back and greeted her.
For a while Dingetjie did not come home, and Simone noticed that she had changed a little. She assumed she now had a new home, but that was not the case. She soon came back pregnant and wanted to stay with Simone.
Simone settled her then, but when labor started things got complicated.
The newborn squirrel did not survive. It was really sad, but after a while Dingetjie returned to nature.
The following year, Dingetjie became pregnant again. Of course Simone felt insecure about it, but luckily the little squirrel was born, alive and well.
It’s hard to describe the relationship between Simone and these little animals. As she says, it is truly something wonderful.
