Tragedy has struck.... emergency help needed....

[newmotherofthree?]

Is there anyone in the NY area who is will to take on 3 southern flying squirrelsquirrels that are pets? Come with a large cage, and all food I have for them. They have to be gone within 24 hours. Please it kills me but it has to be done.

So sorry to hear this. I hope we can find someone soon. I PM'd Island Rehabber and Nancy In New York, so hopefully they can find someone fast.

New York is a big state -- where are you? Nancy and I are three hours apart; Buffalo is 10 hours from me. :dono :dono

It is very hard to expect someone to respond within 24 hours to such a request. Do you not have a family member or friend who can take them temporarily while you find another home for them? What is the emergency?

Personal sorry...... and i can give you a county...... Orange. Near or around port Jervis.

I don't know of anyone. Perhaps if more time could be given, a train could be put together so that our options aren't so limited.
24 hours with everyone in the midst of feeding babies, is next to impossible. Most of us have problems even getting on the board lately. :shakehead
Can a relative or friend take them until something can be done?

Holy crackers! Tragedy has been averted. I am sorry to scare you all like this but I received terrible news and had to act quickly and and I knew this was the place to post. All is going to be fine, a terrible miscommunication that almost ended with me losing my squirrels but its all straightened out and fixed. Thanks for all the fast action guys much appreciated.
