Have you found a Rehabber? Do you have the little guy in a bin with some blankets and the bin sitting half on a non shut off heating pad set to low?

If you suspect he is dehydrated then offer some warmed slightly sweetened sugar water BETWEEN feedings. He should have been rehydrated, and warmed, before offering any formula. They can’t process the formula if they’re cold and dehydrated.

What is the homemade formula that you are feeding? What are you using to feed. Please do not use an eye dropper or a bottle. We recommend a 1cc syringe. Many pharmacies will give you one if you tell them you’re feeding a baby kitten....more sympathetic too kittens than squirrels 🙁

I have reached out to someone I believe is in your area for help. Please don’t start any more threads. It’s easiest for folks to help you if all the info is contained in one thread.

Continue to check back on your threads for help.

I just messaged one of our admin/rehabbers in your area. I know she is full beyond the max, but maybe....

I should have posted this earlier.
I sent Gayle a message/pm this morning.

I just sent this finder an email with Gayle's phone number.
I only did so because island rehabber said she pm'd the number,
and I knew this member had not come back on the board.
Just wanted to cover all bases. :)

Edit: I just saw that Gayle posted. :thumbsup :Love_Icon

Are you INSANE?? You committed this to PRINT? You have guaranteed at least another half dozen! New England is having terrible weather right now! You don't say stuff like this aloud - or worse, WRITE IT DOWN!
