puddle jumping squirrel

I have never seen a puddle jumper with such glee
You have to introduce us, or at least tell me
What is his name? Who can this creature be?
He’s some kind of squirrel, said my Aunt Tee.

I thought you had them all named I said to her.
I used to, but there are so many, my count is not pure.
It might be Jed, Zed, Zeke, Twit or ****.
He is enjoying the rain today more than the cat.
