Pichu tried to kill a baby...

... a baby squirrel!
this morning i let the dogs out and pichu ran straight for the mandarin tree where an innocent baby squirrel was foraging and almost killed him. i was screaming like a crazy lady and im sure the neighbors heard. i wonder if she didnt intend to kill him because she had him in her mouth but didnt bite down. i was so upset. it was just a little baby. i dont think ive ever even seen a baby squirrel. he was finally able to get up the tree and she CLIMBED UP THE TREE. as far as she could anyway. i got her inside the house and then went back out. he was still in the same spot and his mom was a few branches above him. he was chirping away. but it sounded kind of muffled. dont know if that's the normal sound of a baby squirrel learning to chirp or the sound of a baby squirrel with a punctured lung. i watched him for a long time. on the exterior he was fine (no blood or anything) but who knows. when i was leaving for work i went back out there and mom and baby were gone. hope they're ok :/
