Baby Squirrel need info plz help?

I found a baby squirrel this morning because it was following me so i took it back home, left it in a tank and gave it bread and water to live on at the moment. Do u think that it will live as a pet or will it die because its used to being out in the streets.Baby Squirrel need info plz help?
Depends on the age. I am guessing that it would be 20 times happier outside, free, without staying in a cage. After all, how would you feel if you coulden't ever leave your house when you wanted too. It will probably live, but I would let it go. If it is so young it doesn't even have hair yet, you should keep it, and feed it baby milk from an eye dropper every 2-4 hours.Baby Squirrel need info plz help?
well if it is a baby, you need to give it milk. got to the baby section in wal-mart and look for premie bottles. or they may have some at the local pet supply. they are very small bottles. it will need to eat more than just bread. i would suggest calling the vet and asking them what to feed it once it is bigger. people find baby squirrels all the time and keep them as pets. but to keep it healthy you really should contact someone who knows about animals
it needs to live outside, you can keep it till It grows a bit. and btw if it is very small you need to bottle feed it. It will get restless, and angry the more it lives in a cage, so it would probably scratch and bite. but if you keep it to long it will not learn how to survive alone.
I think it'll live as a pet because it's getting food more and more easier than it used to. Suggestions, put it in a hamster cage, feed it nuts.
I think it it depends on the cage and you need to take it to get IT shots or you will get rabies. Make sure it is a big cage so it has room to Move it will get bigger
Wild animals need to be outside unless they are injured then they need care by someone trained to help them. Squirrels will do what squirrels do. They do not belong in a house.
