Toronto dogs on instagram has become a major trend. Take for example Dean The Basset Hound, who has more than 200k followers. With the success Toronto dogs are having why not add a black squirrels to the mix. Howard The Squirrel took up residence in between two kitchen window panes in The Annex. He is Toronto’s 2nd most famous squirrel behind the Trinity Bellwoods White Squirrel. Since moving in this summer, he has made quite a nest for himself out of leaves from the maple tree outside the window.

He also has sleepovers in his new home.

Update: all three of them are now snuggling. Monogamy isn't for everyone, and it was wrong of me to try and impose it on this cuddly triad. . . . #squirrel #squirrels #squirrelstagram #squirrelsquad #squirrelsofinstagram #squirrelsofig #blacksquirrel #blacksquirrels #toronto #torontoanimals #torontosquirrel #torontosquirrels #urbanwildlife #cityanimals

It’s Totally Toronto to have wildlife move into your home.

At least my place has a good-sized balcony . . . #squirrel #squirrels #toronto #torontosquirrel #torontosquirrels #urbanwildlife #cityanimals #squirrelsofinstagram #squirrelsquad #torontoanimals #torontopets #blacksquirrel #blacksquirrels
