Hi, my name is Scooter the Squirrel. Last week an elderly couple dumped me on a backroad; I don't remember why. Moments later another younger, hipper couple pulled up. I cried louder than anyone thought possible. It worked! They bundled me up and took me home.
Now I have a really stylin' cage, full off stuff to climb on and nest in. They've been feeding me esbilac, but recently heard that was bad, so they ordered some FV -- rushed delivery!
Dad built me a nesting box, and Mom takes really good care of me.
They figure I'm about 6-7 weeks old. My tail is just starting to get bushy.

:Welcome Scooter! Glad you had some great parents come along at just the right time. You are one lucky squirrel and we look forward to seeing some pics of your cute fuzzy self when you parents get all settled in. Eat your FV so you grow big and strong!
edited ~ You are a little cutie and what a great nest box. You must feel as snug as a bug in a rug.

I will never understand or even pretend to understand how some people can have such disregard for a living creature, especially a baby anything! :soapbox
Thank you for hearing his cries and rescuing him from a sure death. :grouphug
Glad you switched his formula, now be sure to include a rodent block in his diet. It is essential to his nutritional needs. :thumbsup
Excellent job on the nest box! :bowdown

Awww.... :Welcome aboard little Scooter the Squirrel.
I, too, had a little Scooter. He passed away nearly a year ago and I miss him terribly... so I'm really, really happy to meet you little fella, his namesake ... I already love ya :Love_Icon May you have a long and happy life little Scooter. Your parents are going to read everything up on nutrition, I'm sure, and you'll become a great big strong boy... I just know it :)
