2009 年， Brantley Harrison 一家救了一只受傷的小松鼠Bella 并悉心照顧了它。6 個月后，他們將Bella放回了野外，小松鼠 Bella 卻沒有忘記這家人，過去9 年時間里它每天都會來拜訪他們。

This story happened to Brantley Harrison and her family. Living in South Carolina， the Harrisons often look after wild animals and send them back into the wild when they are feeling better. They were not expecting to see? them again.

In October 2009， a wildlife rescue group found a 4-week-old dying squirrel and took her in and then placed her with Harrison and her family.

The Harrisons named the squirrel Bella. The little squirrel， with three other ones， all lived together outside of the Harrisons’ home in an outdoor cage. They stayed in the Harrisons’ care until spring.

In April 2010， the Harrisons sent the squirrels back into the wild. The other squirrels soon got used to the wild life. But Bella didn’t. The squirrel wasn’t ready to leave her human family.

“Bella usually sits at the front door， waiting for someone to notice her.” Brantley said. Her husband John often brings Bella food， as she is usually waiting by the door for him. Bella has become a member of the family.

Although they had said their goodbyes， Bella had other plans in mind. She refused to leave the family and would not like to go very far into the wild. For nine years， she has continued to? visit them.
