Wow, i am so sorry i did not have antibiotics on-hand to give him last night.

i am not sure if it would have all ready been to late.

i need a kit, one that has a general antibiotic, fox valley milk replacement, those food block things. nothing dramatic - i am not trying to be a re-habber but a first aid for squirrels kit.

i'm sorry little guy

i am a bit worried about the little red i have. i did not use the same feeding tools or double dip into the food but i did not wash my hands after handling the grey.

i do have human abs.

the red shows no signs of infection but is there a way someone could put some in the mail for me. i will pay, shipping included. or if i get the names of the abs i have on hand would someone feel comfortable advicing? am i asking uncomfortable questions?

I'm sorry he didn't make it - there was probably nothing that anybody could do....


You might want to give your other guy some immune boosting drops.

Chris, from Chris's squirrels & more carries something called vetri-MDG (? letters) for immune support. She also carries Fishmox (amoxicillian). I know that she has shipped items to Canada in the past.
