Dear Squirrel Board,
I have been visiting a wild squirrel name Miss B in the park. She has been nursing three baby squirrels since end of February.
I see her everyday but didn’t see her for 2 days. She finally came out of her den yesterday looking very sick. She picked up half of open shell walnuts and went back in her hole. She walked very slowly, her eyes were watery, her jaw looked swollen. Then she urinated uncontrollably on her way down to get food. This never happened before. She lost weight. I couldn’t check color of the urine.
I was not able to take video then. I went back again with soft boo balls and fresh water. she didn’t came out. I’m extremely worried. What do you think she is suffering from? And How can I help? I don’t want to take her out of her nest because of the baby.
