Baby squirrel keeps on screeching!?

I know it's because it's hungry, but it does this constantly. What should I do? It can't be hungry because its every hour or so. It's usually around 4 hours until its hungry again. Oh well.





P.S YES i'm going to release it once its cared for...Baby squirrel keeps on screeching!?

It could be scared, cold, lonely, or having separation anxiety from its mother. Noises could also be scaring it to death. Put it in a cage, with a small stuffed animal, and a heating pad underneath a a baby blanket (heating pad on low). then continue to feed it. For more help, play a little soothing classical music or something nice (like talking to it quietly).
Do you stay around the house a lot? If you don't, it could just be looking for extra attention. Are you keeping it warm enough? It could be cold. I am an expert on dogs, cats and horses... I don't really know much about squirrels!
Yes, he could be hungry every hour if you aren't feeding him enough. He could also be lonely or cold.
