Angie Harmon is an animal lover, but the beloved TV actress goes beyond the typical dog or cat owner.
The actress, 53, who came to fame during the ’90s on Baywatch Nights and Law and Order, earned significant acclaim for her role as Jane on TNT’s Rizzoli & Isles. A mother of three, the brunette beauty has also dipped her toes into directing and producing. But if there’s one thing that sticks out from her social media, it’s definitely her love of animals.
Last week, Harmon posted a video with her latest little friend, a rescued squirrel named Simeon.
“What are you doing, little man? He’s having his lunch,” Harmon told the camera as the squirrel sat on her shoulder and nibbled from its food. “Just a little bit of a snack. Oh my god, he’s so cute and precious. Little Simeon. Sweet baby boy. I love him.”
Despite having a rodent friend on her shoulder, Harmon managed to look chic throughout the video. Sporting minimal makeup and oversized black glasses, the natural beauty was as beautiful as ever.
“Snack time with tiniest troublemaker 🐿️❤️ Simeon is doing GREAT!! 💕 #squirrelmom#squirrelrescue,” Harmon captioned the video.
She Has a History of Bringing Squirrels Home
Back in 2023, Harmon opened up to PEOPLE about a different squirrel, a 3-month-old one named Thomas.
“I mean, when he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was me,” Harmon told the publication. “So my youngest daughter found him on the sidewalk, and there was no tree to put him on.”
While they put him under a tree and waited for his mother to return, she never did.
“So, I was like, ‘Okay, I’ll come get him,'” Harmon said. “And then I’ve had him ever since.”
Harmon would get up every hour and a half to feed the squirrel, and said she didn’t sleep for a month. She called the experience “brutal.”
As Thomas grew up, Harmon would show him off to social media and hold him as she did her makeup.
