Yesterday afternoon (May 11th) we went for a "family walk" and found two baby squirrels crawling around in the grass. One of them was injured, and we took both of them home. After several hours on the internet and on the phone we found an animal rehabilitator who was willing to come get them, but they had to spend 24 hours with us first. A note about baby squirrels...they are beautiful and trusting and wonderful but also a LOT of work! We enjoyed them but they are definitely better off with the rehabilitator. It looks like they're both going to pull through! Travis named the injured little girl Hammie and I named the boy (who was very strong and feisty!) Kermit. Here are our little squirrels!
Hammie curled up against the water bottle
Kermit found his way into the "habitat box" we provided
Feeding time!
So cute!
