Hello, my name is Brooke. I live in Portland Oregon in Ladds Addition. I came home to find the neighbors cat with a squirrel. The squirrel tried to run away but it appears that its left arm may be broken and keeping it from being able to do so. I was able to pick it up with a blanket and have it in a carrier in my room where it is dark and warm. Its alert but appears hurt and scared and is currently just laying in a little ball. It was able to move its tail and back legs when I found it so I don't think its paralyzed but truthfully as I don't know much about squirrels( was referred here by the squirrel guy) I just don't know how badly its hurt and don't know much about how to care for it. I have 4 cats of my own and can't keep the squirrel for rehabilitation because I fear they will hurt it. I need help ASAP. Every vet and other animal resource I've called has either been closed or has said they will put the animal down. My phone number is (209) 601-5011 please call me asap if you can help!
