Hi.... I want to help

[SquirrellyMom]

I graduated from high school and went through all of the vet assisting program. For the past 5 years I have raised squirrels atleast a few a season. I started when a friend of mine introduced me to it my sophomore year and loved it and them. I do not keep them permanently unless they are not able to be released. I raise them and release them when it is safe to do so and they are ready. I have not yet had any who were unreleasable. I am currently for the first time EMPTY!! and would like to volunteer to help. If you need help contact me and I will be monitoring the board to offer my help when necessary. I can take up to 8 pinkies at once and more as they get older and feedings get less often. I have the space and housing for up to 20 if you include room for "teenagers" and outdoor play areas.

Me too!! I am brand spanking new to TSB and do not currently have any little guys (have fostered squirrels and opossums for the past few years.) I am hoping to get some soon & would love to hear from Jackie since I also live in Tampa. I am also trying to find the post regarding the anti-cruelty petition. Forgive me if I am in the wrong place.

Jackie:What ...with all these new VOLUNTEERS... is there a FLORIDA Squad or maybe even a Platoon forming...??

Squad - 9 to 10 soldiers. Typically commanded by a sergeant or staff sergeant, a squad or section is the smallest element in the Army structure, and its size is dependent on its function.

Platoon - 16 to 44 soldiers. A platoon is led by a lieutenant with an NCO as second in command, and consists of two to four squads or sections.

so what do they call 11 thru 15? lol

[Tara L]

Thanks for the friendly welcome! I think the platoon may come in handy for the petition drive. I was checking some of the older posts (re wildlife laws) and was wondering if we had some sort of coalition to help educate others and create a safer environment out there for these little guys.

ps i'm going home to ny in may & ir can find me feeding the fatties in central park!

[Tickle's Mom]

Just remember where you belong ....we have babies all year long in FLORIDA...where you LIVE.....where you want to STAY...in FLORIDA....where you are needed.......in FLORIDA!!!

[Tara L]

Wow! You guys can be pretty harsh. Haven't you heard of southern hospitality? Just kidding. I can't leave my little guys for too long. I'm afraid they might forget me.

Oh shuga, now don't worry your pretty lil head about nuthin. Bless your heart.

How's that?

[Tara L]

Thanks. I've been trying to work my way around this site, but I can't even put my own name on my buddy list or check out my own profile. What am I missing? ps do you have any opossums? i think i miss them the most.

Nope........no possums but I feed five or six every night on my front porch.

I've been on here since November and I still don't know my way around! I just learned to post pictures - kept hitting the wrong submit button. DUUUUHH! There are plenty of members who have possums.....I'll try to find that info for ya.

Tomorrow.
