Please do not call animal control. Most will just pick it up and kill it.
Where in NJ are you? If you want I can come pick him up tomorrow or even tonight if you can meet somewhere.
I am a new member on the squirrel board and I'm just learning how to post. I'm looking up information about a squirrel that is in my yard that is falling over and can't sit up when it eats and can't run properly and fits the description that you guys are speaking about in this thread. I live in New Jersey And called Animal Control for three raccoons which were orphaned and they pick them up and they said that they were compromise too much because of Maggot infestation and they euthanize them. But now that I'm reading that Animal Control may not be the best choice for rescuing an animal, given what happen with the raccoons, I don't want them to kill the squirrel either. So I'm wondering if this person lives anywhere near me, in New Jersey, to help catch the squirrel and treat it. I live in Woodbury in South Jersey across from Philadelphia. Please let me know if you can help.
