Pretty sure I have a squirrel in my chimney

[Beau Vine 55863]

What's the best way to get him out?

Thought about starting a fire, but considered worst-case scenario (squirrel falls into fire, doesn't die, flaming squirrel pinballs around the living room with dogs in chase) and came to my senses.

Put a chicken-wire or some kind of mesh basket over the fire.  Catch squirrel in basket.  Slow roast to perfection.

The top of the chimney. Otherwise you're getting him in.

I was smart enough to shut the damper.

Wait, is this a euphemism?

no need, @Judge Roybeanbag has it covered

Because of the small size and trouble with deboning, only roast it until it's charred (and dead), then skin it, toss it in a pot with a bundle of leeks, some sliced ginger, and a light cooking wine, filled to 1" of the top with water. Bring to a boil, 3 hours of simmering afterwards, toss in carrots and potatoes. Personally I like to fuck it up with oregano and cumin just because nothing tastes right to me if it isn't tex-mex-ified, but whatever floats yer boat
