Figs????

[momma2boo]

I was unable to locate figs on the pet squirrel allowables. Can they have figs as a treat?

I was wondering about figs too. Also if anyone now if they can have dates I'd appreciate knowing.

My grandmother is always ranting to me about the squirrels raiding her fig tree. One of them will always take exactly two figs and sit on the corner of her porch and eat them in front of her, then he'll leave the remains there till the following day when he'll push them off and eat two more. :D Anyway, I asked her if I could have a couple for Jester, he loves them. I'm pretty sure they're safe as long as they're clean..at least in moderation. They're very high in calcium but I think they're also high in oxalates which can eventually lead to kidney stones if too much builds up. Don't know about dates, sorry..

don't know if figs are "officially" allowed, :D but this little "two-fig" :D fuzzer suggests they are ok and yes, they are high in Calcium
