Our first thought about a friendship between humans and animals is about dogs and us. But despite that, there are some unique stories.

Bella is a wild animal who became best friends with Brantley Harrison’s family. That happened when rescuers found the injured animal and gave her to them to take care of.

The little creature was attacked by an owl and wouldn’t survive on his own. She was being raised with other squirrels the family was taking care of. After several months of rehabilitation, she was released into the wild.

Her helpers didn’t expect to see her ever again, but then this happened.

For the next 8 years, Bella returned to them to show the love and gratitude she had towards the family.

At that point, she couldn’t imagine her life without them. She goes back every day to receive her nuts and fruits.

Once, she needed their help one more time. She was pregnant and hurt her foot. They kept her in the house for a month, allowing her to gain strength and take care of her children.

This shows just how loyal and kind the animals really are.
