Dorothy Squirrel



Kevin's mother, who lived in The Wild for years until Kevin and Kell found her in late 2005. However, if Danielle Kendall is correct, Dorothy left the Wild to visit her less than three years prior to her first Christmas with the Dewclaws (or Danielle visited her there). She is an extremely short rabbit who had Kevin via a C-section. She has a somewhat obnoxious personality, and is fairly creative at tormenting people. She too is less than pleased with Kevin's marriage, but apparently did not think highly of the "awful" Angelique, either. She initially got along poorly with Elanor, but rescued her when she broke her hip. Despite that, she imitated the howls of predators to show her what it means to be prey- Elanor feared being eaten as an injured predator. She then used her skills as a retired physical therapist to aid Elanor's recovery, albeit with threats and psychological torture. She has re-entered society and now lives with George and Danielle.

She gets along well with her grandchildren, regretting not being close to Lindesfarne during her childhood, and makes an attempt to establish a relationship with her after her engagement with Fenton. She helps Rudy with his tracking disability, partly motivated to do so because she is also unable to follow tracks, and when she was younger, was forced to find her own grazing spots. She volunteered to be conditioning coach for the hunting team, despite her initial protests about helping a team that hunts herbivores. Dorothy said she would coach until Danielle gave birth, but recent strips have shown her continuing to help condition the team.

When she learned about Coney's protective nature, she thought that she would stop being a carnivore, but when Coney saved her life, she promised to stop trying to change her diet. However, it remains to be seen if she will keep her promise. She was shown to be happy that Coney at least ate vegetables on her burgers. She also had a resemblance to Coney when she was a child. She married Douglas Squirrel, following his release from Prison.
