Hi, I'm Nancy

[2ndHandRanchRescue]

I'm new to forums and posts but not to squirrels. I'm a licensed DNR Wildlife Rehabber in Illinois with a great relationship with our County and Village Animal Control (they are so awesome they bring me injured squirrels) and local vets that are super wildlife friendly. Visit me at www.2ndhandranch.com and look forward to 'chatting' with fellow squirrel lovers. Add me to your rehabber list in Illinois.
I actually have 2 non releaseables from car strikes. A boy that is so old he has no top teeth but the sweetie (even though born wild) lets me trim weekly. TTYS Nancy

Hi again TSB. Now that you guys know me a bit I had to share what the Spouse got me for Christmas last year. Yep an original art tattoo. This guy is great-in Chicagoland and loves animals (weird small world - he grew up with a mom that was a vet tech and had squirrels and raccoons around all the time) well I explained what I did. Set squirrels free or if they needed they went to heaven. Then my real job I save trees and work mostly with Oak trees (Gypsy Moth USFS). Well he came up with this. In person - its amazing you can see the fur detail and whiskers! And no it didn't even hurt AT ALL. Ok, now you know I'm a dork.

OMG!!!!!

He does AMAZING work.

What a great present.

I've been wanting one myself but the ones I've seen don't quite look right. Wish I lived closer, I would have to get his name from you.

Enjoy.:thumbsup
