Nashville rehab

[luckyrabbit]

I found a hurt squirrel in my yard. He can't move his back legs. Is there anyone who knows someone I can contact in Nashville?

This person is not a rehabber, but I found them on TBS as a resource. Maybe he/they can help.

Did you get the squirrel inside to safety?

If you check in the rehabber forum, you will find the Sticky of a National list of rehabbers, which includes a convenient link. When you call, ask if they are willing to treat the squirrel with this condition, not put it down without trying.

Take a look at this list to see if there is anyone on here that is close to you. Just be sure they don't euthanize!

Thanks for helping this little fella. Let us know if you find someone as soon as you can and we'll keep looking for you.
