Recently Chippy decided to go into semi-retirement. He will keep up his Twitter page and probably have more time for it once his retirement starts. You see he was made as a prototype out of acrylic felt over 2 years ago and has been on many adventures, including a trip to Las Vegas, since then. All of the traveling in purses, carry-ons and pockets has taken it’s toll on poor Chippy.
So today we are introducing his new little assistant! From now on this little squirrel will be going out as the squirrel about town for girlsavage and this blog. This little one is smaller and stitched entirely out of wool. We do need help from you, you see the little squirrel doesn’t even have a name yet. We thought it would be fun to let you all pick the new name!
Please leave your suggestion for a name in the comments. The person who submits the name that we pick will win a Petal Bunny pocket mirror, like the one shown above. The name will be chosen and winner announced this Saturday !
Chippy and the new little one would like to thank you in advance for your help!
Thank you!

OK, so for Chippy’s assistant, a good unisex name for a little wool squirrel …

How about Chap or Chirpy? I had a book about two squirrels when I was little, and they were named Chap and Chirpy.

Hubert or Herbert in French accent or not, as desired. Hubie or Herbie for short, bien sûr 🙂

I think Butters would be so cute.

I think he sort of looks like a Ralph or Mikey. But Butters wasn’t a bad suggestion either.
