Hello everyone,

I'm in need of a rehabber in Montreal.

Earlier this evening I heard squealing in the neighbor's parking lot and a squirrel making angry noises. I found a baby squirrel on the ground being handled by a stray cat and the parent on the fence chattering at the cat, but the cat didn't leave until I shooed it away. The baby was shivering. I walked away and waited about 30mn. The parent went back to what I assume was the nest under the neighbor's roof, right where the baby was laying but never came down to pick it up. 30mn later, with the baby still shivering on the cool ground and the night falling down, I became worried about hypothermia and I picked it up.
It's currently sleeping in a shoe box filled with soft rags and a hot bottle. It sometimes crawls around, curls up, stretches out... It looks alright, the fur is clean, no wound/blood and it doesn't look dehydrated. I assume there's no chance the parents pick it up tomorrow if I go back and place it back.

Do you know of someone I can contact in Montreal to transfer the baby to? Anything else I can do in the meantime?

Thanks all :)
