A couple from the Bronx in New York City have spent over $10,000 on a squirrel that they rescued and then adopted.
It all started when two baby squirrels were found on a pile of leaves and twigs on a homeowner's bed in a tenth floor apartment. Christina Reyes, who has been rehabbing squirrels since 2008, rushed in to help the two babies.
