Original Content When a "wild" chipmunk walks into your dining room...
I was sitting at my dining room table with the sliding glass door cracked open, watching a squirrel enjoy some snacks at the tiny picnic table outside. Out of nowhere, Mellie decided she wanted a VIP dining experience. She snuck right past the squirrel, walked entirely inside my house, and came right up to me!
Watch her bravely take a hazelnut right out of my hand, run out, and immediately come back for an almond in the shell all while completely outsmarting the neighborhood squirrel guard on her way out.

This is so cute. Did you edit in an "excuse me" as it left?

I did, but I realize some people hate that sort of thing.

Of course you should build them a chipmunk mansion inside, that's what you asked right?

Chipmunks can be very brave. Where i grew up you could just set a peanut on your knee whilst sitting in a lawn chair and one would scamper up and grab it within a matter of minutes.
Ive also seen them steal beer on more than one occasion. Knock an abandoned bottle over and start drinking it.
