The Indian palm squirrel (Funambulus pennantii) also known as Five-striped palm squirrel, is a species of rodent in the Sciuridae family that can be easily domesticated and kept as a pet. It is found naturally in India. In the late 19th century, the Palm squirrel was accidentally introduced into Western Australia, where it has since become a minor pest that is actively targeted for eradication due to its lack of natural predators.

The five-striped palm squirrel Funambulus pennantii is found in northern India.
