Need info... Baby squirrel doesnt want to eat!

[nikki]

Hi there... My neighbors brought us over a baby squirrel last Sunday. It fell out of a large oak and was bleeding out of its nose and mouth. He seems to be fine (amazingly!) and was eating his formula and all was well but this morning he ate half what he normally does and put his head down and wont eat. We managed to give him another feeding and this time we got just a little in his tummy before he turned away and wont eat! We would so appreciate any help or information out there. Also, any rehabbers in this area willing to help. By the way, he looks to be aboyt 6 to 7 weeks of age.
Thanks so much
Nikki

:Welcome to TSB
I have a few questions that might help. What are you feeding your baby? How are his stools? Are they runny or formed?
What are you using to feed him with ... syringe, eye dropper, bottle?

Also, you mentioned a rehabber. Are you looking for a rehabber to take the little one or are you looking for help in raising him?

One more question while we're waiting here.
Hold your baby to your ear. Listen VERY carefully for a clicking sound. Even a faint click is significant. Let us know because this will need treating.

I think you need to refresh your screen to see that there are replies to your question. I have to step away from the computer to feed my fliers. Others will be here to help also. :tilt
