:Welcome to TSB
It would surprise me if you have an "issue" we haven't heard of...
Explain your issues and hopefully we can either ease your mind or
help you through them.

thank you. all figured out, i think. of course, its never all figured out. smee caught some hair loss thing and she had a little bald patch. think it was mange since it was also a little red. ordered some ivermectin, was unsure about the dosage. ive now heard from several sources a drop the size of an uncooked grain of rice, every 7-10 days for 3 weeks. Although I do have one totally unrelated question: do squirrels need organic food? ive always given her organic but i was just wondering if this was nessessary because it is very expensive!

Of course organic is always the better option, it is not necessary IMO.

Edit: Your other thread does explain why organic is the better option.
