Christy you hang in there for Twister, sounds like you are a very good mommie and you will get lots of help and support on The Squirrel Board. Give him a good healthy start to life and lots of love and if you so choose to let him back into nature both you and Twister will be much better for all you will go through. You have already experienced the bond that grows so quickly with these little furry guys, it only gets stronger and better. Keep us posted on the progress and snap some pictures if you have a way to do so. Thanks for being there for him :thankyou
