Soon after he was born, a young squirrel arrived on a farm and was captured by a human. The person then attempted to hand him over to their pet cat. Yet the cat sympathized with the squirrel, welcomed him as its own child, and named him Banner. Banner and the cat enjoyed a joyful life on the farm, but their bliss was short‑lived. A blaze destroyed the property, and Banner became separated from his feline mother.
