Flying squirrel pet idea

I had an idea for a new pet. The Flying squirrel would spawn in any forest biome and could be tamed with apples. This pet will sit on your shoulder simulair to a parrot and glide along with you when using Elytra. However the function of this pet goes beyond that. When seated the pet will get up to pick up any item in a ten block radius of where it was seated and deposit those items in any possible storage block. This could be a hopper, a brewing stand, a chest, any storage block if there is room. Unless the squirrel picks up any seed type or an apple. In that case it will munch on the item and eat it. When the pet is unseated and following the player it will also return any drops from mobs the player killed. Altho untamed ones will grab any item the player drops and run off with it.
