A friend found a baby on his sidewalk after the storms blew through in North Raleigh NC. He's unable to take care of the baby but didn't want to leave it there. Is there help to be found in this area with any rehabbers that can take on another little one? Baby's eyes are open and looks to be about 6 weeks or so old. I have the man's contact number and will send via private message if anyone can be found to help. He has nothing on hand to help this little one, I know card board boxes are a no-no but it's all he could find and had to borrow from a neighbor.

Until a rehabber can be found, warm blankets and a quiet safe place and cardboard box is fine.

Here is a useful link, anything he can do would be much appreciated until a long term carer can be found.

This link will take you directly to the NC Wildlife Resources Commission Wildlife Rehabilitator Contacts page.

Scroll down to the section that says:

"Find rehabilitators in your county by selecting from the drop-down list below."

There is a note that pop ups have to be enabled.

"POP-UP REMINDER NOTE - When a county is selected, the page will open in a new window and sometimes be recognized as a pop-up page. On some devices and browsers, pop-ups must be enabled for the drop down menu to function properly. For information on how to enable pop-ups, see browser or mobile device documentation on how to enable pop-ups."

Enter the county and small mammals and a list will appear.

Thanks Cava, I have given him info for squirrel care and told him it may be a bit before someone can be found.
