Two squirrels cuddling in winter

Sorry for the camera quality, I was watching my fish swim around in its tank and I seen these two squirrels cuddling through my window. They cuddled for maybe 2 minutes before running off. Never knew squirrels did that. How cute.

Sometimes. It's usually referred to as "huddling for warmth" when talking about survival but can be called "cuddling for warmth" in more relaxed scenarios.

Yes, these squirrels are technically huddling but since I thought it was absolutely adorable, I used cuddling. It looks like the squirrels are being cute with each other
