Squirrels are my favourite animals, so the squirrel list gets to be the first. Unfortunate for me squirrels don't seem to be that popular...

Abel, from Trinity Blood (manga)

I tend to be annoyingly obsessed and picky with what is considered canon in a work's universe, and for Trinity Blood the only thing that really matters for me is what happens in the original light novels. The manga and anime adaptations can be nice and I love the manga author's art, but if they have any material that doesn't appear in the novels I automatically consider it filler.

The manga version is still somewhat special to me as it's the one I read first, so I was pretty sad when I found out that Seth's pet squirrel didn't appear in the novels at all. Not that it had any purpose really... But I loved the idea that she had named a pet rodent after his brother (I even fantasised on how she'd have had hundreds of pets in her lifetime and they would all have been called "Abel #2" "Abel #3" etc.)

Theo, from Emma

Erich Mölders' pet squirrel caught my attention right away when I first read the series. Naturally I was very happy when it was given its own chapter in the later bonus stories.

I'm kind of left wondering on how realistic it would be for someone to have a pet squirrel like that, but I guess it's ok since he's a rich kid living at the end of the 19th century.

Risky brothers zombies, from One Piece

Actually the squirrel zombies left such a weak impression on me that I didn't even remember them until I randomly stumbled into them on an OP wikia... Well, a squirrel is a squirrel, and anything from OP deserves a mention by default.

Emolga and Pachirisu, from Pokemon

I'd been kind of thinking that Sentret could maybe possibly be counted as a squirrel too, but then I gave up as it's obviously a ferret.

I've never really liked Pachirisu, and I'm fairly sure that it has a lot to do with the fact that the anime Dawn has one. I have never even seen a single episode where she appears though so I really shouldn't be talking... But I just don't like her design and what seems to be her characteristic and role in the story. Emolga on the other hand is one of my favourite pokemon, and you can read about my own Emolga Cleo here.

The squirrel department in Pokemon is slightly disappointing. Why can't we have one super cool squirrel? We only have kawaii desudesu pikachu clones. Mind you I really like Emolga, but I'd just wish it'd evolve into something cool.

Usul, from Neopets

As a squirrel fan naturally my first choice for a neopet was the Usul. I picked a blue one (the neck fur and ribbon I mean) and after a short consideration I decided to call her "furri". Of course that name had been already taken, so I settled with "furri6" instead. She had been painted baby at some point, but at an older age I started to think that chibi-like proportions aren't actually that cute... Now she has been painted camouflage for quite a while.

Back then I also thought that there was something squirrel-like in the Meerca as well, but I guess it's more likea mouse or -gasp- a meercat.
