I don't think so,
That's why they save acorns for the winter right?

I get my blankets torn off

Then I get my pillow taken away.

Then I get the sunshine in full blast in my face.

Then I get a few shakes.

But I never wake up...

The nocturnal hibernates.

Well how about that! I could have sworn I saw a video in school years ago about hibernation and they used squirrels as a reference. Guess I should not have slept through so many school videos!

My neighborhood is full of squirrels that run around on rooftops chasing each other and making funny noises. It gets rather loud at times...

No they don't.
Atleast not in Finland. You rarely notice them at winter becaus of the changed colour of their fur, but they're very much around thru the whole year.

I have seen squirrels busily eating their stored nuts all through winter except for maybe a few weeks over Christmas when I have not been watching squirrels :P
