Slappy our squirrel

A baby squirrel raised alone without other baby squirrels has a greatly reduced chance of a successful release, so we need someone that knows, she is alone right now and being raise by volunteers.

If you find an injured squirrel, contact a licensed Wildlife Vet. for assistance, squirrels eat nuts, seeds, dried corn, fruits, twigs, buds, bark, leaves, roots, and mushrooms.

Avoid the temptation to feed your squirrel human treats because the bushy-tailed rodents are not easily weaned off unhealthy foods to which they become accustomed. Squirrels who are fed granola bars, crackers, candies, and the like may refuse the natural diet for which they were created.

 

“She is the fairies’ midwife, and she comes in shape no bigger than an agate-stone… Her chariot is an empty hazel-nut, made by the joiner squirrel… And in this state she gallops night by night through lovers’ brains, and then they dream of love…” – WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, in “Romeo and Juliet.”
