Don't ever tell me animals aren't smart and don't have feelings.....

Squirrel behavior comprises a variety of complex vocalizations, body language, and signals for communicating with members of their species.

Vocal signals are a major form of communication squirrels use that can range from chirps to a long series of screams, barks, and purrs. Tooth chattering is a warning signal squirrels use to alert encroaching squirrels. Baby squirrels call for their mother through small cries, male squirrels use typical mating calls to chase females, and frightened squirrels usually let out small and shrill screams. Squirrels also use their tail to communicate in threatening or frightening situations. For instance, if a ground squirrel spots a rattlesnake, it will wave its tail back and forth to confuse the snake by creating the impression of a huge body mass through rapid movements of the tail. Body languages like tail-thrashing and foot-stomping indicates facing down an enemy whereas an erect posture is indicative of alertness. Squirrels also leave scents on barks of trees to indicate territorial boundaries

Squirrels have an excellent memory and there have been instances of squirrels remembering humans who are harmless or are a trusted source of food.
