    Exclamation My son stepped on our squirrel yesterday

    Our son accidentally stepped on our 4 month old female squirrel yesterday and she has been still since. Not eating much, but still drinking and going to the bathroom. I’m worried her leg might be hurt and she might be in pain. Can I give her liquid Tylenol or ibuprphen. I plan on taking her to the vet tomorrow but wanted to check here and see if I could help her in the mean time. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    She can have infant ibuprophen. Can you weigh her?

    She weighs 470 grams. Still no change, just laying around, drinking but not eating.
