my dog brought up a baby squirrel bout 2 weeks ago eyes still closed,my daughter bottle fed her and now her eyes are open and shiny very active...what all does she need as far as a cage and food???Help with a baby squirrel...please???
Ok,
Cage: Large rat cage w/ toys (bird toys work well, just know they will eat everything!! so stay away from the toys with metal objects)
Food: Stick with large seeds, so a seed guinea pig/rat/hamster food works fine.Help with a baby squirrel...please???
A life outside in the wild where she belongs.
you need a plastic Rubbermaid box leave the top off just make a crib for him for now he's not big enough for a cage yet . get a under tank heater. get a adjustable thermostat with probe. a thermometer . and a old towel. set the thermostat to 78 degrees f . and feed it a couple of cc's of milk every 3-4 hours with a small syringe or you could use a eye dropper. kitten milk is good. cow milk is to thick they can't digest it properly. may take a damp cloth or cotton ball and dab him a few times a day to help from dehydration. good luck with your little squirrel they make great pets but they get into everything
I'd take it to a vet and let them work with it and then release it back into the wild.
if you put it in a cage and stuff it will prolly die honestly my friend got baby bunnies like that and they died but its prolly gonna die anyhow now
I hope the best for ya try a ferret cage
