When a Finnish family found a baby squirrel injured and dying at the side of the road, they decided to take him home.

Chances are, the animal wouldn't have made it if they hadn't nursed him back to health.

Arttu is probably the cutest thing we've seen in ages, and it's our job to write about cute things.

After the family decided to release him back into the wild, he wasn't having any of it.

The gorgeous baby squirrel had formed an attachment to his new adopted family and wanted to stay.

He was also left blind from his injuries, and the family soon realised that he wouldn't survive on his own.

Arttu had to become part of the family.

And part of the family he became - the little red squirrel became very domesticated and enjoyed playing in the house.

They also let the little guy play outside - and he was so attached to the family that he always came back in when he was done.

Arttu sadly passed away after a long life of six years lodging with the family.

They obviously loved him very much, and made a grave for him in the garden, with food kept out to feed other squirrels.
