Squirrel

The Squirrel is a background critter that only serves as environment flavor. Very similar to bunnies, they appear in the forest biome, and because of they tiny health and no defense, They are often instantly killed by mobs or the player itself. A squirrel behaves exactly as the other common ground critters - it moves around randomly as a bunny, penguin or frog would.

It is possible to catch a squirrel with the Bug Net, and carried around in the inventory. It can then be released again, or crafted into a Squirrel Cage to be placed as furniture. Once crafted, the squirrel cannot be released again, and it moves around inside the cage as it would do outside.
