Esquirr

Gender: Male

Hometown: Metairie, LA

Temperament: Artistic

Specialties: Acorn Gumbo, Pecan Pie

Special Needs: Gas stove, squirrel-accessible kitchen

Yes, I’m a squirrel. And yes, I’m a chef. So? I mean, what’s wrong with that? I have access to a virtually infinite array of foods from gardens all over town. And acorn soup? Have you ever tried it? Don’t knock it until you do. I make a mean Garden-Pillaged-Basil Pesto, but Salvaged Carved Pumpkin Pie is my specialty. I hope to make to Top Chef in the next few years. The SARF is helping me out by letting me cook four meals a week. It’s been a great experience learning to cook for such a wide range of non-eating stuffed animals. It makes things tough, but I like a challenge. I hope to one day open my own restaurant: SQUIRR.

Where Is He Now?

Esquirr cooks up a storm!

Graduate of December 2009 petting zoo. Adopted in early 2010.

We received an update from Esquirr’s new family, and it looks like he’s having a wonderful time! He’s been spending a lot of his evenings in the kitchen helping out with dinner and testing out recipes on his owners, Brad and Lora. We hear he makes a mean white chili. We miss you, Esquirr, but we’re thrilled that you’re getting a chance to follow your dreams!

Adoption Completed: January 2010
