I was putting some aloe vera plant on my daughter's finger and Buddy was around; he seemed extremely interested in the plant. I didn't give him any, as I wasn't sure if it's good for him. I did a quick search and couldn't find anything from a reliable resource and didn't see anything on this forum either. Is Aloe Vera okay to eat for gray squirrels? What other flowers, wild plants can I give him?
Thank you!:w00t
