Urgent purrs needed for baby squirrel
A hawk discovered a squirrel nest in one of our trees today. The
squirrel mom started moving her young to another location, but one of the babies fell from the nest and onto my car. I found it on the windwhield. He's tiny, no fur at all and the eyes are still closed. We put it in a towel on the roof, near where the mom hangs out. If mom doesn't come to get him by nightfall, I'm not sure what we're going to do. I'll do my best to save him, but we don't know the first thing about baby squirrels. The page I found online says to contact a mammal rehabilitator, but I doubt there's one here in Austin that will take a squirrel. We have hundreds of thousands of these critters! Purrs for the little one would be most appreciated. -- Victor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Healing purrs head toward the little one. also, you might do a ping for
Mary (mmmaryinla is her screen name on her server, I think) she's a licensed squirrel rehabilitator in Los Angeles. She might be able to give you some hints, and maybe knows who to contact in your area. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

I know it's the weekend, and you probably won't be able to reach a Humane Society till Monday, but if he's still hanging on by then, they will know how to reach a wildlife rehab place. Good luck.

If the baby fell far and has any injuries or is cold, mom won't take him back. Here is a list of rehabilitators http://www.mary.cc/squirrels Click "find a rehabber" on the left. |
