I need a rehabber! I want to give the two orphaned baby squirrels to someone. I am in Manhattan. Is anyone out there a rehabber who can direct me to someone nearby? Thanks!

How do you become a rehaber? I'm probably going to retire in a couple years, and taking care of squirrels is something I would like to do. Other than the cages I have everything you listed, FV, heating pad, etc. I live in the Peoples Republic of Maryland.

Happy to update that sfreel found someone to take the two little ones, in NYC. And that I still have 10 altogether and half a dozen on their way soon from Flo, but not these two as well.
