re: Baby squirrel advice

As some have mentioned, it is illegal to keep it. Here are a list of rehabbers in La, I encourage you to contact one in your area—if you’re in La—and pass it along or at least follow their suggestions. They are cute but are a good bit of work to raise, especially if any medical issues arise. I’ve had to clip teeth, treat infected eyes, pneumonia, etc. Please keep it away from domestic pets. Squirrels raised with cats and dogs—“oh, isn’t it cute” Facebook posts—cannot be released since they’ve lost fear of natural predators. To keep a full grown squirrel caged for life is a cruel act. Thanks for saving the little guy, here is the link.
