A
fun-loving squirrel who loves to dress up in an array of nutty hats has become
a star attraction at a US university.
Sneezy
the squirrel’s popularity has soared after the animal struck up an unlikely
friendship with animal-loving student Mary Krupa at Penn State University in
Pennsylvania.
A
bond that began over a packet of shared nuts quickly blossomed, with the 18-year-old
undergraduate soon feeling confident enough to dress Sneezy in a range of
assorted homemade hats.
‘One
day I was sitting under a tree and some kids nearby were feeding a group of
squirrels and they weren’t running away – so I decided to try the same thing,’
she explained.
‘They
got friendlier and friendlier, particularly Sneezy, but I honestly don’t know
what inspired me to put hats on her – I just wanted to see what I could do as
it was funny.
‘I had a tiny doll hat with me and tried it.
Amazingly she sat there with it on long enough for me to take a picture. It was
so cute.’
