Watch these squirrels escape the heat in a woman's amazing homemade spa
View Date:2025-01-11 09:38:24
When Breyana Elwell and her husband put a fan on their porch to ward off mosquitoes in the heat of New Braunfels, Texas, they had no idea it would become a wildlife magnet.
After leaving a fan on accidentally overnight, Breyana came outside to find an unexpected visitor lounging in front of it. A squirrel.
At the time, the temperature was over 100 degrees, and when Breyana saw how much the fan helped the squirrel cool down, she left it on. The following day, she found two squirrels trying to beat the heat. That gave her an idea, and she immediately set about constructing a 'squirrel city.'
Watch this 'squirrel spa' become a safe haven from the heat.
With a sign that says 'Welcome Squirrels,' the city is essentially a spa, complete with fans, a vintage dollhouse, a water fountain, mini picnic benches, and snacks for her new friends. Companies saw her viral video and quickly pitched in to help, equipping her with an abundance of fans to help the animals cool off.
Now, every morning, Breyana spends about two hours setting up the heat haven and will continue to keep it stocked and open for business year-round.
