Forget what you think you know about squirrels. Jill isn’t just any rescue—she’s a survivor with a soft spot for one very specific comfort: her tiny teddy bear.
From Disaster to Recovery
Jill’s story started in chaos—blown out of her nest by Hurricane Isaac in Louisiana, 2012. Barely a few weeks old, injured, and alone, her odds of survival were slim.
Enter one kind-hearted woman. She found Jill, nursed her back to health, and gave her a second shot at life. Instead of heading back to the wild, Jill decided to stick around—and she’s been melting hearts online ever since.
A Squirrel and Her Teddy
What makes Jill famous isn’t just her recovery, it’s her obsession with napping. Specifically, she refuses to sleep without her miniature teddy bear.
The photos say it all: tiny squirrel, tinier bear, curled up together. Jill clutches her plush friend every night—and honestly, who can blame her? Squirrels are social, and after surviving a hurricane alone, it’s no wonder she found comfort in a soft stand-in.

Why This Story Matters
This isn’t just “aww, cute squirrel” fluff. Jill’s story proves that sometimes, survival is about more than food and shelter—it’s about comfort, connection, and the right bit of kindness at the right time.
Jill’s bond with her teddy is weird, sweet, and a reminder that even the wildest creatures need a little softness.
