I had a friend at boarding school (religious) in Tennessee - Charlotte.

Charlotte had the most beautiful auburn red hair, milky lightly freckled skin, and gorgeous green eyes. This was high school, and she was talented too - though I can't recall if it was music or gymnastics. Definitely one of the brighter bulbs - though - that was a very "bright bulb" school I was lucky enough to experience.

Anyhow, on "free" weekends, we could bring pets, and she had her pet squirrel. Can't remember his name, but it was amazing, how sweet they were together.

If Charlotte's red hair wasn't striking enough - Charlotte with a bushy tailed squirrel on her shoulder was outstanding. It was actually cruel of the school to separate them for most of the year, IMO.
