Squirrels make awesome pets, but only if you are willing to take the responsibility. If not, definitely stop feeding it (unless you are sure it is abandon and can't feed itself)


and call animal control. there should be some local people working through your county to help animals like that. my best friend does that (she has three of those cuties right now) But if you keep it, find out some info on them so it has a balanced diet.Good Luck!

Call Animal control. They'll know what to do.
shoot the hell out of it with a; a bebe gun b; a paint ball c; a real gun d; call the police and they will contact animal control.( hint; if u do a ,b or c do it from long range but first open the door)
I'm partial to batter dipped and deep fried. Yum!
My husband says squirrels are glorified rats. They dig up the yard and plant peanuts everywhere. I think they are cute though. If you want it to live then just continue as you are doing. If you don't then ignore the squirrel. Good luck
Animal control they might come and get it just make sure it hes no way into the house
u shouldnt feed it unless ur sure it has no mother. if it has no parents 2 feed it, call animal control
This is very simple you should stop feeding it. Once you feed animals they stay there because it knows it will have a food supply. But you can call your animal shelter or maybe a squirral/pest catcher.
Leave him alone and stop feeding him.





You feed him, he thinks you are family, that's why hes trying to get in.
It's illegal to pick up abandoned/injured wildlife in most states. And in many animal control and rehab places won't deal with critters like squirrels. Plus you don't know if it has any diseases so you shouldn't risk yourself or your pets in finding out. It's sad to say but like the others have mentioned you are best to leave it. It's a part of nature's cycle...
well if you are thinking about keeping it take it to the vets and see if they can check it out for anything wrong with it or if it needs any special food or anything
depends on if u wanna keep it?! ;)
animal control will euthanize the poor rodent. if you do decide to feed it, make sure you feed it hard food that it would normally eat because it's teeth grow and grow. if you feed it soft food all the time, it's teeth will grow too long, it will starve, and die
If the squirrel has a mother or another squirrel living with it, do not disturb it. It is a wild animal and could pose harm to you if threatened. If it appears abandoned after observing it from afar for several days, call your local animal shelter or wildlife rehabilitation center for further instructions.
Squirrels do make wonderful pets, but one thing to think of .. they will never be ';tame'; they will always have their wild instincts!


We had one for about 3 years. He was very cool! His name was Mr. Nuts! But he got to where he was always wanting outside, and if we let him out it was hard to get him back. But he once bit my cousin, and my mom. He became partial to my brother (who found him) Anyone else that got near him he would try to intimidate!


If you do not want to keep him, just put some food out there for him, feeding him will not hurt. He will not do damage to your yard.


If he does get inside your house, get some pecans, and coax him back outside!


They love nuts, especially ones they can crack open themselves!
