The question https://pets.stackexchange.com/q/34455/330 was closed with reason "squirrels aren't lets". I don't understand: I used to have a squirrel as a pet, many others do the same, many shops sell pet squirrels, and Wikipedia lists rodents as common pets. Why are squirrels declared as non-pets on this website?
Note that there have been questions about squirrels in the past that were well received, e.g.: How to help an infant palm squirrel that is not drinking milk and seems like it's suffocating
