| Squirrel Hello,
I found a baby squirrel that had fallen from a tree. I called my local pet shop and found out exactly what to do for it. I used a 10 gal fish tank for it to stay in. You must put the squirrel on a heating pad. It needs the warmth. You must keep it warm. Also put a little towel for it to cuddle in, but make sure you always check on it. Make sure it is not smothering itself. This is important. I bought formula to feed it. I'm really not sure what it was now. It has been a few years since I did this. But I think it was kitten formula. I feed it with and eyedropper. After it eats you must, must rub it's tummy back and forth. You see that a little baby like that is not able to poop on it's own, so you just take your finger and rub it's belly back and forth. It should help him poop. It stimulates it's system. This is a must. Make sure you keep it warm, and always keep checking on it.
Unfortunately when you find them out of their nest it is because their moms threw them out. Something is usually wrong with it, so the mom does this. This is instinct. Hopefully yours just maybe fell.
I hope this helps you. Good Luck and God Bless You. You are a Wonderful Person to take this Little Helpless Baby. |
