Can anyone go and pick up the baby that was found in someone's driveway in Waltham mass? She currently has him in a box with a warm rice sock but doesn't have any expertise in this area, and I am up in Temple New Hampshire right now. Her cell is (781) 354-0846 and her name is lauren ... Thank you

Lauren has him in a box right now with a warm rice sock in the blanket but that's about it and I told her to just keep him in another room with the box covered

I just feel like a squirrel newbie since Ivan was my first squirrel...I want to make sure I'm telling her the right thing to do, so if anybody else wants to call her or text and just let her know what else to be helpful. And I'm talking to text... Forgive mistakes

My friend Joann (licensed rehabber) is going to call her today, she is very close to her. I will keep you posted.

rocky63
04-27-2014, 07:51 AM
thanks Mary, I'm about 40 minutes away and I was making arrangements to pick up this baby. If Joann is closer I will wait.
keep me posted

pappy1264
04-27-2014, 09:02 AM
I just spoke to Lauren, she has not heard from anyone. I told her about Joann and she said she could bring him to her. Waiting to hear back again from Joann. I told her if she had not heard from her in two hours to let me know.

Is she at least giving this little one some hydration? Can whoever is in touch with her tell her how - eyedropper will work in a pinch - you can even empty and thoroughly clean an eye droop container and use that...

SammysMom
04-27-2014, 09:52 AM
She didnt get my message last night?

JLM27
04-27-2014, 09:56 AM
Do you want me to get it and once I have it where do I take it?

I hope who ever can get this baby, does it fast.
This is a LONG time to go without hydration or food.
There are people willing to help, let's not wait. :imp

Here's the info on the finder.
Let's just do this, and figure out
later who should have called or whatever.
If someone calls this person they will tell you
if someone else has been in contact, we will at least
have answers. This can't wait a couple of hours.

She was going to get pedialyte and give him fluids. Joann had an emergency of her own but would call her later. I will call her back in a bit, but she was going to go get fluids and a syringe from pharmacy.

Hi all
Lauren sent me a text and let me know the little one had a full syringe of pedilyte and is happily eating Cheerios! Thank you to Pappy and Joanne for helping out! I'm so grateful for all of you.

Baby is here, name (from finder) is Mikey. Just got fluids in and he has already snuggled up with the nine, same age. Looks good, pee very yellow. Just took about 9 cc's of homemade pedialyte.

Thank you Jill for getting this little one. I was so worried with all the time that went by.
I can imagine he was starving, poor little peanut! Thank you again! :grouphug

He is! And his new family readily accepted, with his two older 'sisters' grooming him and then snuggling up with him!

Jill, thank you for picking him up and delivering him. Although was not planning on it, he is more then welcome here and has already happily become one of the family!

How about a pic of that? TSB does such a great job. A very big thanks from us to those that made this happen.
Pappy you are the best. And one of the luckiest too.

I love that his sisters are grooming him. What a sweet little puss! Everyone: the whole trip was worth it just to hold his little wiggly self. Big kudos to Lauren and hubby for rescuing him and keeping him safe.

pappy1264
04-27-2014, 07:14 PM
Yes, they did a great job! I sent her his pics and she is very happy he is now part of a squirrel family!

Mykie's adorable, chubby robustness is what saved him, I think, from all those hours of dehydration/starvation. He had a little to spare, thank goodness! Yaaaaay Mary -- your heart is always open and so is your door :bowdown :Love_Icon

pappy1264
04-28-2014, 08:40 AM
Thanks guys. He actually was alot more dehydrated than his appearance shows. Gave him fluids every 2 hours last night. Late night feeding thougth I would just try a little diluted formula. Nope, vomited it right back up. Back to fluids. Will try again later today. But he loves his homemade pedialtye! Well, thirteen is an unlucky number anyway...lol He is the exact age/size of most of my nine, so it was meant to be!:Love_Icon

Heres something kinda funny to add to the story, or a perhaps a little bit of kismet. I do 'those' parties for Athena's ; hence the name 'Goddess' .. Lauren (the finder) booked a party with another goddess and the other goddess couldn't do it so she gave it to me.

Since lauren knew about my Ivan, she contacted me right when she found mikey and well.....the rest is history!

funny how it all came full circle in a crazy way and I'm so thankfuk for this page!

:thumbsup
