sciurine - adj., or, pertaining to, or resembling a squirrel.
Or more specifically, any member of the Sciuridae, the family of rodents that includes squirrels. Alternate form is sciurid. Pronounced with an initial consonant like scissors. From Latin sciūrus, squirrel, of course.
I love it -- an actual $20 word for squirrely.
