A woman had found an orphan baby squirrel and was trying to raise it, but things were not going well.
But, she knew there was a mother squirrel with babies in her yard and with the orphan and a couple walnuts in hand, she checked if the mother squirrel would be interested in adopting the baby squirrel.
Along a similar theme, there was a mare who had given birth to a stillborn foal, and an orphan whose mother had also died shortly after giving birth. It was love at first sight.
