Hello I'm new here & have never rehabbed a squirrel before
The story is we seen mom (grey squirrel) move her babies under our deck for some reason a few months ago during the summer
A month or so goes by & my daughter found 1 of the babies dead in our driveway no marks or anything on him.
A week goes by and we found another one alive on our deck just laying there hardly able to move.
We suspect mom abandoned them or got hit by a car as she never came back.
We brought him in & re-hydrated him & slowly got him/her healthy, feeding goats milk with heavy cream & water.
We've fed him fruit veggies & some Lara bars for treats.
2 days ago his heat pad somehow got unplugged & same with the heater we have in the room, he was super cold to the touch & again could hardly move
I warmed him up but since then he's been lethargic and dehydrated I just gave him sugar water which he drank about 6ml & then pee'd a really dark pee
Which is why I'm here now cause it freaked me out.
His back legs have always been a bit weak as he cant really walk or hop/run at a quick pace
Is this because he's gotten cold or is there another reason for the dark pee..?
Thank You !!
