Fact: Squirrels are known for collecting nuts.

But apparently some like pizza.

Well, one in St. Petersburg does.

On Friday, a Tampa Bay Times reporter shot footage of a little animal dragging a slice up a 25-foot tree.

This isn’t the first rodent caught on camera indulging in the Italian favorite.

Last March, a Chicago woman snapped a squirrel sitting happily on a branch munching away.

The hashtag #pizzasquirrel is now trending.

Twitter users had fun making comments about this furry creature, which made their Friday workday go faster.

Thanks, little buddy.
