Orphaned Baby Squirrel Adopts A Loving Indian Family

An interior designer from India had no idea that after catching a sunrise, she would meet a future best friend, Gillraj, the squirrel.

Aayushi Jain and her family, which consists of her parents and elder brother, found Gillraj sleeping by their car. They checked whether the animal was still alive and looked for any nearby nests it might have fallen from. After searching for a while, the whole family decided to adopt Gillraj as, otherwise, he didn’t stand a chance to survive.

Fast forward to today, Gillraj has become a cherished family member the Jain family cannot imagine their lives without. Aayushi shared: “Never did I imagine having a squirrel as a pet, but now our lives revolve around him. It’s truly Gillraj’s world, and we’re just living in it.”
