Why is my chimney so attractive?

Yesterday I rescued a squirrel and this morning I can hear a bird trapped in there. I suppose they're looking for nesting spots.

Something is not right if animals can get in there. Not sure if you have any choice in using your furnace right now or not, but a restricted chimney/vent can cause carbon monoxide to back up into the home. It is supposed to be varmint-proof for yours and the animals' sake. I'd get someone on it ASAP. The fix is cheap - a few bucks of 1/2" mesh.
@hlpflwthat it's just for a gas fireplace that we never really use. I know it needs a screen but I'm not going up there to put it on
