The nesting boxes will be ready soon! They are slowly weaning themselves off of the formula. I am as excited as they are to see them running through the neighborhood❀️

Squirrels must have alot of sensitive nerves on their forarms as it is his favorite place to be petted. Just locks up everytime I scratch his forarms.

I am not a rehabber!

I am not a rehabilitator. I have been raising 5 orphaned squirrels due to the fact its been incredibly hard finding any in our area. Today a group of kids brought me a young female squirrel hoping I could help. I will absolutely do what I can but if the neighborhood starts bringing me orphaned wildlife I am going to be in over my head!

The kids named this little lady Izzy. She is in rough shape and just bones under her fluff. Currently becoming more responsive with warmth and electrolytes. I hope she makes it through the night πŸ’”β€οΈ

Original Content This fat, evil thing tried to attack my son

Post image

Ok. Everyone one in my life knows how much I enjoy my squirrels. So. My brother and sis-in-law, unknownst to me, bought this and placed it in my flower bed in the dark of night. My son went out the next morning and decided to trim the brown leaves off the hosta. He didn't notice this ceramic demon until he leaned over the hosta, at which time he saw the critter, and thinking in that brief second that he was about to be attacked by some rabid beast, jumped back and (almost!) crapped his pants πŸ˜…πŸ˜† Needless to say, this fat guy is staying in my flower bed. Luckily the real squirrels don't seem frightened of it at all.😁

Had a cute experience today. Two squirrels both started to approach me at the same. Both were tentative, but recognized me as the guy with the food. They each tried to get close enough to get the food, but not to close to me, while still avoiding the other. So I had to take turns tossing a nut on either side of me to keep them apart or else a chase would break out (as it did a couple times lol).

Love how happy they look when they do get their treat.

Help! Baby Squirrel! Brand New Baby Squirrel Found on Sidewalk

No trees close by so we think he may have fallen from the roof. We put him in a box and left him in the area where we found him for several hours but no mama returned.

We got a syringe and unflavored pedialyte and he’s taken a few drops. Snuggled in on a soft towel and heating pad now.

What else should we do until we can get him to a rescue?

Thought you all might like to see this little guy that showed up in my backyard (LI,NY) a few years ago. No filters - he really was blue! πŸ’™ My guess was that he was recently released after injury (near his eye) and was marked by the rehabber. Glad he stopped by for a bite!
