Insult to injury, she was moved with me into a new home (apartment rather than the house she was raised in). She has enough sight to navigate, and I know squirrels have well-developed hippocampi. It’s just hard for me to know how much she does and doesn’t see.
Is it possible to deprive a squirrel of nuts too much? They were rare treats. But they are also in the Henry blocks so I didn’t feel like that deprived her?
She’s never had MBD symptoms. And she’s such a chill, non-picky eater. I freak out anytime she seasonally loses fur and then remember it’s seasonal. Sometimes around fall she stashes food rather than eating it and is overactive and loses weight but she always balances back out.
I don’t know. It makes me feel like a bad squirrel parent and it sucks to see her with impaired vision.
