According to CHITTA's Universal Language of Mind, Squirrel in a dream represents mental habit. That meaning is the same for every dreamer — but what Squirrel is SAYING is not: the message is composed by where Squirrel appears in your dream and what happens to it.

A 'Squirrel' in a dream represents a mental habit. Consider the qualities of a squirrel: quick, nervous, constantly gathering and storing, easily distracted, and always busy. This reflects a habitual thought pattern characterized by restless energy, constant gathering, and difficulty staying focused on one thing. A squirrel gathers and hoards -- it collects far more than it needs and stores it in many different locations, often forgetting where it put things. This reflects a habitual tendency to gather information, ideas, or resources compulsively without ever fully utilizing what has been collected. When a squirrel shows up in your dream, examine your habitual patterns of gathering and distraction. Are you collecting more than you are applying? Are you jumping from one thing to the next without depth? Slow down. Focus. Apply what you have already gathered before collecting more.
