Napa Nector ™

[Sara in NW MS]

Can anyone tell me if Napa Nector is safe for squirrels? I know it's safe for mice and rats but I'm having a hard time finding the actual ingredients. I have some pouches of this and I was wondering if it would be safe to leave a little bit in a shallow container for TW? It's basically a "water gel pack". It's used for shipping mainly but a lot of places use this instead of water bottles. I don't want to stop giving him water, I just want to have something in his cage he might be able to get to while I'm not there. He might not be able to get to it and he might not try to lick it... but if he could that would be awesome.

Can't see any reason why not unless the packaging might present a choking hazard to little TW
if he were to chew it.:dono You would know if that's a concern or not...
Napa Nector is a sterile product, no chemicals, no sugar. Moisture content is 99.3% by volume.
It was developed for a less costly way to provide water for laboratory animals in transit and on special study.
