First of all I already have a squirrel who is almost 3. My friends friend found a baby squirrel and took him in, since I I have one she would ask for advice. Well I was asked to squirrel sit while she goes on vacation. When she got back she wanted to know if I wanted to adopt him. I said yes. I don't think Seymour and the new sqwee will like each other. I kept Groot in our playroom in Seymours old cage so they wouldn't see each other. I could use some advice on caring for 2 different unrelated squirrels.btw Seymour is a fox squirrel and Groot is a gray.

I don't think Seymour will like Groot encroaching on his territory. I would not worry about them seeing each other as much as being out at the same time. It might wind up in a ball of fighting squirrels causing injury to one or the other or to you if you intervene. Make sure you use proper sanitation until you are sure Groot doesn't have parasites or fleas. You obviously did a good job with Seymour if he made 3 so just follow the same excellent care with Groot.

Welcome to your new baby!
