OK, this reminded me. A while back I found a baby squirrel at the foot of a tree, only a day or two old - pink and hairless with bulbous eyes closed, and tried to keep it safe and warm for it's mother, but she never showed. So, I ended up taking it in and raising it.
After that, my cat must figure I like 'em, and has taken it upon herself to go fetch them when we hear their distinctive breathy squeal coming from the woods. She has brought me two more - possibly litter mates, without appearing to injure either.
Rabbits, mice, snakes, moles, voles, birds, etc. will all have puncture marks from her at the very least, baby squirrels on the other hand will be without a mark - at least from her.

Also, the squirrel I rescued loved to jump on the back of one of my indoor cats, which would freak him out, so he would take off running with the squirrel holding tight and riding him like a horse. That was pretty funny to watch.
