I have a young squirrel i want to release safely.i belive he is about 12 weeks old.i didnt get him as a baby a girl who stayed at a hostel passed out on the bank and ems and cops got called then this young squirrel was running up there legs and climed in her shirt so he kept it.its tail wasnt fluffy yet and still had the baby look slept a lot.i got it hydrated and fed good,he became more active as the days went by she left and left him with me.hes very active now a lot bigger i would like to release him theres a lot of cats around and a lot of other squirrels.he is very tame has been from the the begging so i figierd some one must have had him as a small baby and put him out.it getting very cold here is it safe to release in winter or what should i do to make this possible no squirrel rehabilitation here.

Before this squirrel can be released it must spend a month outside in a release cage getting wild away from you and acclimating to the out side sounds and animals.

*Where can you do this at? ..... you will still feed daily.
