ladies and gentlemen, I give you...
THE SQUIRREL!
We've raised several squirrels before. They had to stay in the master bathroom since we had a cat that was convinced they were snack food for him. The hard part was teaching them to crack open walnuts. I think they just pretended to not be able to fend for themselves. They were very happy sitting and waiting for me to hammer a pile of walnuts just for them. But they were so cute!
