A few months ago, three police officers banged on Lisa Bertram’s apartment door in the middle of the night with a sick baby squirrel in their hands. She went to the door and poked her head out, took the squirrel into her apartment, and the officers left.
“Typical New York, no one [in the building] even asked me about it,” she says of the incident. “I just got weird looks on the way to the laundry room or getting my mail. Maybe people thought I was really dangerous and they shouldn’t get involved with me.”
