A couple years ago I had a little guy join me in the cockpit as well. Only I had to stop and let him out...

Cool story.  
 

A word of caution about ground based critters and helicopters though: don’t leave your longlines attached over night or for long periods if the aircraft is unattended.  Many years ago now I had to cover for a competitor on an adjacent seismic job in Wyoming (same client) because mice were climbing up the LL into the belly of their Astar and chewing a bunch of wires grounding them.  There were some long faces in that staging when I showed up…
