Cutie is so funny lolol, she wanted nothing to do with the stuffed squirrel 🤣 I also have to say how encouraging it is to see so much love from the Squirrels at the Window community for Smoothie 😊❤ 🐿 She definitely was very special and will be missed greatly 😢 🐿
Hi, l wasn't able to get the Nutty squirrel due to excessive shipping costs,but l have ordered the Aurora Miyoshi squirrel with a Acorn between it's paws, do you know how old Smoothie was so l can put date's on the Memorial plaque in memory of Smoothie Squirrel 🐿️
what happened to Smoothie ?
@@NorthernMouse52That's very nice of you ❤ Smoothie was approx. 5 years old.
@@suzanneslifer1772Unfortunately the eye infection spread to her head and she passed away.
I've noticed with my squirrels that when twitching their tails vigorously over their heads, it's a sign of nervousness. But when waving it left and right low to the ground it a sign of happiness and comfort.
Losing a creature we love never gets any easier no matter how many times you go through it. Any animal lover feels deeply for you.
❤️❤️💔
Definitely thought about my lost creatures about a few times today.
What we do to life and nature in the name of cars plagues me. I'm so sorry for your loss.
I just about never got over the death of my beloved dog.
Amen. Doesn’t matter how many times it happens. It never gets easier. I recently had to put down my white German Shepherd and it hurt so bad. But he was in pain and I would not let him suffer. He has a special place on our fireplace mantle now. It’s not the same without him. Smoothie will be missed by you and all of us here in the community. She will be waiting for you on the other side.
So sorry to learn about Smoothie's passing. One of my eastern grey's, Ariana, was killed by a car last week. It sucks as these little gems are put in our world to make us stop and notice how precious life can be. When I had COVID last December, this is when I bonded with the squirrels around my home. They've always been here, and it's up to us to respect them and help them whenever we can. Even a little water dish like you have helps them find CLEAN water and costs nothing. I love squirrels!
I totally agree with you about putting out some water for any and all animals that may pass through your yard on a hot day, I feel so bad for them that I've been doing it for a few years now.
😢
I’m sorry for loosing your furr baby! I absolutely adore all the animals, birds, creatures! They so much better than so many humans 😢💔🙏🏻
Oh no! Poor Smoothie 😭 She was trying to tell you the other day she wasn't feeling well. I'm so glad you were there to comfort and feed her during her final days 💔💔
Amazing how God works through all things. :) God Bless! :)
She was probably saying goodbye and I love you. Animals are like that.
@@vacancywithin I heard that some pets will even leave their owners when they're about to die in attempt to not make them feel sad. Unfortunately I have no evidence to prove the legitimacy of this information. May your cat rest in peace.
@@daforkgaming3320 I can almost confirm that this is true. Based on something that happened with a dog when I was a child.
@@daforkgaming3320 it's less about not making the owners feel sad and more of an instinct to not attract scavengers and predators to their den, since predators will seek out old and sick animals as easy prey.
Rest assured, the squirrels appreciate all you do. I'm certain sweet Smoothie agrees.
May she rest in squirrel heaven.
Thanks to you, Smoothie's memory has been immortalized on the internet. She lived a great life thanks to you, and we will all remember her
This news hurts me to the core. 😢😢 “Death ends a life, not a relationship.” You will live on in the hearts of many Smoothie. RIP 🐿✝
We are all passing through. You filled her time here with love and care and delicious sustenance of all kinds. I know this is an old video, but you have my deepest condolences. Rest in peace, little friend.
Thank you ❤️
We are all saddened by the departure of smoothie. 😥 You made her life better and she returned the kindness. Thanks for sharing her with the world.
To be fair I can't imagine how I'd react if I went to my favourite restaurant and inexplicably found a mannequin seated at the table 😂
Lol 😂
LOL! Funny! But dead on! ;) :)
That's hilarious!!
Especially if was dressed as your best friend!!😅🥹😳
One of the biggest downfalls of loving wild animals is that we can’t always get to them or know where they go when something happens. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions, well it was/is for me, it’s hard not to get attached to these wonderfully cheeky intelligent little beings.
So, I’m sorry to hear about Smoothie.
I’m glad you have many little friends around you to help lift your spirits while you grieve, including us 🕊💕
I'm so sorry about Smoothie. I know how it feels to have a bond with these darling squirrels. I too got a stuffed animal in memory of Pete a squirrel I cared for. ❤🐿 Smoothie will always be special! ❤🙏🐿
Very sorry to hear about Smoothie’s loss. It’s always heartbreaking when you get particularly close to a wild animal (or indeed any creature) & then something happens to them 😢
It’s good you have so much support from your other regular visitors though. Seeing Squint reach for your hand after he’d taken his almond was adorable. You’ve built some truly special & unique relationships with each of them. Thank you for sharing.
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie the loss is felt here too. Thank you for watching and continuing to care and feed the extended squirrel family ❤️
I know what it's like to lose a 'garden pet'. I was lucky enough to capture mine and Halftails last ever visit. there was just something about her that told me 'this is it'. and I cried for days. she showed me trust, friendship, took a nap on the kitchen windowsill, and she was just awesome. she taught me so much. I left the videos as they were, feel free to watch them when you're able to - I get emotional about them too. I said 'garden pet' because that's the literal interpretation of what they are - and being woke up at daft o'clock in the morning in spring with an upset squirrel 'waaaaaaa... kuk kuk waaaaaa' because another squirrel got too close. and with the window ajar enough, that gets amplified - and living in a ground floor flat where I prefer the doors open and the windows open in spring, well, if the birdsong doesn't get you at 3am, two squirrels squabbling over feeder rights at 8am definitely will!!!
unfortunately, grey squirrels are treated lower than vermin here in the uk. but, we owe it to them to help them as much as we dare try to. and we can't help being who we are and we can't help but respect all who attends our feeders and protect them - that is who we are. that is what has made us. our eyes see their perspective.
if Smoothie had kids, you can be sure they're still around. they'll be somewhere close by. I reckoned my Halftail was at least 6 or 7 years old. she instigated the friendship... I was just happy to be the 'nut supplier'. if it was raining, she'd damned near break the window trying to get to sit inside out of the wet and get a bite to eat - couldn't deny her, no matter how hard I tried! I know there's definitely offspring roaming around here - they all know where the windowsill is!
we just have to keep being us. keep feeding, keeping watch, and being there.
Your video of Halftail's last visit made me cry. That she would come to see you one more time even when she was clearly struggling shows how much she loved you. It's incredible that she lived so long; most squirrels are lucky to make it past a year in the wild, from what I've read. I have no doubt that having you for a friend is a large part of the reason she made it as long as she did. And there's so much wisdom and truth in what you wrote in the description for that video. These animals are special. They have a lot to teach us if we're willing to pay attention. In their small but boundless souls, I see a microcosm of all that matters in any life: love, friendship, the struggle to survive in a sometimes harsh world, and gratitude for the great gift of being born.
Your Halftail reminds me of my Newsom. I have a group of daily backyard visitors now (some of whom allow me to feed them by hand, which will always feel like the most incredible gesture of trust to me), but long before I ever saw a single squirrel set foot on my property, there was one little grey lady who made her home in a park I visit a few times a week. She insisted on becoming my friend. She was the first squirrel I formed a special bond with, and the first one who let me hand-feed her on a regular basis. She would cover the entire length of the park just to get to me and say hello. And she outranked everyone. If anyone dared to get too close while she was eating, she would start grumbling like a furry little monster truck. But she was always so gentle with me. I'll never forget the first time she reached out and grabbed my finger.
I knew her for just shy of two years. I got to watch her grow up. The last time I saw her, I knew something was wrong. She knew it too, but she could only tell me with her eyes. I still don't know if she was sick or just worn down. I know a squirrel's life is hard. She looked physically fine, but the light in her eyes was fading. She looked at me like she was saying goodbye. On my next walking day, I found her not far from the spot we'd first met. It was like she was trying to hold on long enough to see me one more time, and she just couldn't make it.
She's buried in my back yard, so she'll always be in a safe place. For a good week or two after I lost her, just thinking about her made me weep like nothing ever has. I didn't know I could love any living thing that much. The sting of that loss is still there. I know it always will be. But more than anything, what I feel now is a profound happiness that I was lucky enough to know her at all, and that she chose me to be her person. She shows up in my dreams once in a while. That gives me comfort. And I can feel that she's still around in some form, watching over me and my surviving furry friends.
I read a great quote once. I think it was from someone who was talking about pet rats, and how painfully short their lives are. I think it applies to our special squirrel friends too: "They may only be here for a small portion of our lives, but we're fortunate enough to love them for all of theirs."
So sorry about Halftail.
Rest in peace, Smoothie. Thank you for caring for them all, and for sharing your videos. I love all your squirrels!
Thank you for your kind words 😊❤️
RIP Smoothie squirrel Heaven.
It is so sad when a good friend passes
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of beloved Smoothie Squirrel 😢
Aww, sweet Smoothie. She was a special girl and will be very much missed. Hugs from me and my girl Digger
Thank you very much for your kind words and generous gift. ❤️
So sad about Smoothie 😢 RIP Precious angel 🐿
So sorry about smoothy. You brought us into her world, and made us smile at how special she was. Thank-you for being so kind to her. You brightened her world.
Lily sniffed the stuffed squirrels butt like: "Are you in line?" LMAO!
Lol 😂
Fly high Smoothie 🙏💗
I am so sorry 😢💔 It is so hard loosing a squirrel friend. Smoothie is running happily somewhere over the rainbow 💛💙💜
I am sorry to hear about Smoothie. She'll live on in our hearts. RIP little one.
RIP sweet Smoothie….you were loved🙏
Hello there Dearie, I'm so sad to hear Smoothie had passed away.... My heart was heavy already, as one of our little guys, who had a a growth or tumor on his side, for the last few months, fell vey ill on this past Thursday, he could barely stand up, and stayed with me for most of the day, and into the evening.. I could tell he likely not make it thru the night. I cried with him, till he was able to climb his favorite tree for the last time that night.. I'm still sad, thinking of him.. Take care Dearie... Much love....
Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry for your loss. Smoothie ❤
Smoothie 😢 ❤
RIP Smoothie ❤😢
I'm so sorry Smoothie passed. She was a special girl. Pure and good souls. She'll never be forgotten - her pups will bring her back when they do something she would've, putting smiles on our faces, making us laugh reminding us of her. ❤🩹⛅🌠 Another star in Heaven today.
Like so many other fans I also am sorry that Smoothie died, she will be missed. Squint is a fine and brave little squirrel who I hope remains a regular star on the squirrels at the window show.
Sorry to hear you lost Smoothie, I know you like your squirrels a lot.
The world needs more people caring about people and people caring about animals. I imagine it was a little hard to start doing this, but you appear as a pro now. Thanks for bringing some of your adventure with these squirrels, to us
My deepest condolences 🙏🏻 Losing an animal friend is often more painful than losing a human one. My heart goes out to you. 💌💕
Smoothie 😒 Rest in Peace Sweetie 🙂
Smoothie died?
How very sad!
I loved that little cutie.
So sorry about Smoothie. My heart goes out to you. It's the special bond with these little animals..it hurts so much to lose them. 😢 I hope she will rest in gentle peace.
So very sorry for the loss of Smoothie. We loved seeing her on your channel as well, she was so cute and smart. We lost one of our favorite squirrels tragically last October, and it is still difficult to come to grips with the grief. We try to remember how much we helped our little friend and did all we could to make his short life better. This is what you have done and more for your squirrels. They are so lucky to have you caring for them and looking out for their health. ❤🩹❤❣
RIP Smoothie 🌻🐿
So sad to hear about Smoothie's passing. I liked how she would jump from the window to your desk with no fear of you being near her. She was one of a kind as squirrels go.
I am so sorry about Smoothie. I will miss her. Still grieving the loss of my 17 yr old cat on may 25.
So sorry for your loss dear. :( I'll never get over losing my kitty who lived to be 18yrs. old herself. But God comforts. Thnx B2 God, God Bless you in Jesus Holy name. :)
Smoothie, no longer? I am so sad to hear this. She has been such a regular cast member of 'Squirrels at the window'. She will be dearly missed. On another note, it is funny to see Lilly's reaction to the stuffed animal. I find, each time a squirrel approaches a used-by-human object, the squirrel is always scared and studies the object before approaching. Mine were even afraid of a plastic bowl.
In honor of Smoothie .... Thanks, and many blessings to you!
That's very kind of you. Thank you very much ❤️
Rest in peace Smoothie! Your friends will take care of the scurry!
Smoothie will forever be in our hearts. I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing these precious moments with us. Rest In Peace. ❤
So sorry to hear that you lost Smoothie. I so much enjoyed seeing her in your videos. She really gave so much pleasure to everyone who loves wildlife. I feed my own squirrels, chipmunks, and birds. They are getting a special treat of raw almonds this week in memory of Smoothie. Hugs to you.
Rest In Peace, sweet Smoothie. I’m so sorry for this heartbreaking news. Losing an animal friend is so painful. ❤️💔
Thank you ❤️
Rest in peace, Smoothie. I'm glad we got to see a glimpse of her life even if only for a brief time. She was definitely an exceptional squirrel and through your channel really helps showcase to others the range and depth of emotion, curiosity, and ingenuity these little neighbors of ours possess.
So sorry to hear about Smoothie. 😢
Oh...I'm so sorry about Smoothie. It's always heartbreaking to loose a beloved animal, doesn't matter if wild or not. 😒
Squint is very courageous and doesn't let the stuff Smoothie intimidate him.
Rest in peace little smoothie 🙏😔
My sympathy on the loss of your precious fur baby. I have a couple little chipmunks that take the peanuts out of my hand. I bought some organic almond butter after watching your channel and they love it on a little piece of apple.! I am sure you will see Smoothie again, I once asked a priest, if dogs go to Heaven, and he said to me,” when you love some thing, you give it a soul, and all souls have access to heaven, so I am sure your little Smoothie will be waiting for you when the time comes….✨
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie. I'm shocked. Smoothie brought a lot of joy to you and many people. I hope Smoothie didn't suffer.
I also see Squint's going to be the new Alpha.
Many young squirrels will continue to need your love and support. Thank you for you work.
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. Smoothie was beautiful. She’s never truly gone as long as your memories of her and your love for her survive. 🌹🐿
So sad and sorry that you (and we all) lost Smoothie, she was a lovely squirrel. 😢💔My condolences to you.
Thanks!
Thank you very much for your kind gift. ❤️
RIP Smoothie
The reaction from Squint is so sweet ❤
So sad that Smoothie is gone 😢
I have that same stuffed squirrel. I call her Naomi. I am so sorry to hear about Smoothie.
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie. 😢I've watched a lot of your videos and saw the bond you had with Smoothie. A compilation video of clips highlighting your journey with Smoothie would be nice when you're feeling up to it. I love, love, love squirrels and the most I can do is enjoy watching them play from my window. So, your channel is special to me here on RUclips. I began looking for squirrel videos some months ago and most were like 20 or 30 sec videos, or they were made 9-10 years ago which were not the best quality then. Please keep sharing your adventures with all your squirrel friends with us. God bless you❤💖
I am so sorry to hear about Smoothie. I love your channel and the squirrels help take away the stress. Smoothie lived a good life thanks to you and your kindness and appreciation for these amazing creatures. Rest in peace beautiful Smoothie.
Oh dear. Sorry to hear about Smoothy. She was becoming one of my favorites too. Nice tribute to her.
Look at Cutie's tail, she was so alert but still brave enough to not run away immediately
So very sorry to hear about Smoothie... I knew how precious she was to you. 😥
Coming from a Veteran who's seen three tours... the loss of Smoothie actually made me sad. Rest in peace, little one.
How can anyone _not_ love Cutie? She is the most adorable squirrel I have ever seen.
aww RIP smoothie i hope you’re doing okay! ❤️
First squirrel 🐿️: "He's just standing there... menacingly..."
Smoothie will always be missed🖤 Sweet little critter, we're so blessed to have known her & terribly sad that she had to leave.
Thank you very much for your kind words and generous gift. ❤️
Prayers for your heart to stay strong! Losing anything we love takes a lot out of us. Bless you for taking time for these sweet babies! ❤
Oh, no! You lost Smoothie? I am so sad to hear this! 😢💔 Still binge watching, so I'm 5 months late to offer my condolences. Losing a beloved friend is always so hard. Thank you for living and caring for her! 💕 She was a beauty!
Thank you ❤️
Really sorry to hear you lost smoothie 💔
these squirrels are showing a lot more respect for the stuffed squirrel than that one monkey who tried to steal food from the mouth of a chimp.
So sad about Smoothie - but how lovely that you were there to comfort her in her last days.
I’m so sorry about Smoothie! I’m still having a hard time abt losing my little girl squirrel too! Hugs from North Carolina!
So, so cute 🥰
She;s probably thinking, what did you do? We hate change! 🤣
RIP Smoothie :(
I’m so sorry for your loss 💔💔💔 when I lost my little Chonky I was heartbroken for months. It helped when I started watching squirrel nest live videos and speak to all the other squirrel lovers while watching little baby squirrels growing up a little more everyday ❤ I made friends there with whom I bonded over the loss of our fury friends. And it helped immensely. I hope maybe it can help you too ❤
We all remember smoothie and she lives in all our memories. That makes her life so much more extraordinary. We love her and miss her dearly ❤❤❤
I'm so sorry about Smoothie. She was a precious friend.
Squint: "You gonna eat that?"
😄
It’s called the uncanny valley effect. When something looks human, but not quite human, it comes off creepy as heck. The squirrels are experiencing this effect for the first time in their lives. ❤ Probably good because it takes their mind off their lost friend.
Awww I'm so sorry for your loss of Smoothie. I had two beloved kitty cat's Kim and Boo that passed away. There's not a day that goes by that i don't think of them. I miss them both terribly and will always love them. I find myself dreaming about them a lot. Smoothie will always be loved and remembered. Bless you for caring for the beautiful squirrels and giving them food and water. Rest in peace Smoothie. You will always be loved and remembered. 😢❤🐿️
I am so sorry for your loss 😢
RIP smoothie and condolences to your family
Thank you ❤️
😢..I'm sorry Smoothie has gone..she was my favorite..don't matter how tough or strong I think I am.. nothing crushes me more..I cried for her...😢 about 10 minutes..🌧️.. I just loved that little girl.💗.💐 I know you loved her sooo much and gave her the best..😊❤️🪶💐 Blessing to you 🪶💐
So sorry to hear of Smoothies passing. So sorry for your loss & pain . She will be missed
It's always hard when we lose a friend. The pain you feel is a measure of the love you've felt.
Ohhh, no...condolences on losing Smoothie. I know you loved her [I guess we all did]. This is a very cute video, though. I love how they all slowly get used to our fluffy new little stuffed friend 🥰🐿
Very sorry to hear of Smoothie's passing, a wonderful squirrel. Your closeness makes the loss hard. I hope your treasured memories bring you comfort, and thank you so much for your videos❤
so sorry miss smoothie is gone. you both gave each other much joy and she made us happy as well. she is missed by many.
I've only just joined this community, but I'm so sorry to learn of the death of Smoothie!
Thank you ❤️
Thank you for being so kind and loving to these beautiful creatures.
Ou no. This is much first time to see this and hear about Smoothie.😢 so sad yet thanks to you she had the best life a squirrel could have.❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie. She was one of a kind ❤ They are a bit wary of the stuffed animal and now they are like it's not real. They are super smart animals. Big hugs 💖
YES, I'm really saddened when any animal passes especially our little wild friends which we seem to hold so close to our heart and soul. The feeling we get really can't be explained. I'm very sorry for the loss of Smoothie, hang in their. God Bless you for what you do. Thank you!!!
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie's passing. ❤
It's Brave Lillie. Scared of the stuffed squirrel , but went for it anyway.
I'm so sorry to hear about Smoothie, sending hugs to you and the squirrels 💕
