Paralyzed tail CA

[Ter-Bear]

Hi I am new here I have a squirrel that's about 4 months old...he was injured on April 1st...I caught him a little over 2 weeks ago...he is doing very well. He does seem to wet himself but I am able to clean him probly from the tail injury... he is non releasable...and I have been trying to get any information I can on options for him...he is happy he plays eats well but is picky....he loves the blocks but not greens he is a sweetie and a first baby of a squirrel I have had for over 2 years in my yard.. any advice would be appreciated on any options for him.

Thank you for helping this special guy. When you say wetting himself is he unable to move his hind end properly? If not that is a sign of spinal injury, my Charley Chuckles had that it's not a death sentence just means he will be a non releasable.
If your happy to care for him it's wonderful:w00t

Methylcobalamin and Adenocobalamin, the latter a precursor of the former; are bio-identical forms of Vitamin B-12, that work together (synergistically) in the body.

These forms of B-12 have been found to improve nerve function in rodents with head trauma, back nerve injuries, B12 deficiency, and to reduce nerve related pain.

The base of this vegan sourced B 12 is organic glycerin from organic mustard seed oil.

Product tastes kind of like tart berry mixed with vegetable oil. Natural red color from the base source.


Using a (1) needle drop from a (1 ml) (1 cc) needle syringe; first practice getting one droplet from the needle syringe.

This best done with the needled pointed down held in front of you, so you can see the droplet come out.

Once you are ready to proceed; take a (1/4) Teaspoon and place one droplet onto the spoon without touching the spoon with the needle.

Now done with the needle, set it aside. Fill the 1/4 Tsp. near to the top with organic vanilla yogurt; then offer it to the squirrel to lick up.


(1 ml) (1 cc) needle syringes are available on Amazon.com

Hi Charlie chuckles...thabk you..his back legs work perfectly fine....he may not feel when he needs to go due to the injury...I'm not sure what to do every person that may take him hasn't been able to...my hope for him is he gets a better home than I can provide

Doggies friend....thank you for the tip I will look into that...I don't know how to respond individually on here
