I noticed a couple days ago the baby would click while breathing for a few minutes but then stop for a while. They is eating fine still and wanting to crawl and move around but I'm worried this could be developing into aspiration pneumonia. Thank you for the help!!
I believe it is a male grey squirrel approximately 4 weeks old. Has lower teeth and ears open and been blinking with slitted eyes and fur everywhere. I have scheduled with a vet for Thursday for a check up as was soonest I could get him in. He is on fox valley and eats roughly 4ml every 4 hours as was recommended by vet.
Backstory : Rescued about 2 weeks ago. Had seen it fall out of nest and waited for mom to get but she didn't come for first 10 min so put in open box with t-shirt and warm water bottle. She came about an hour later but the neighbors dog attacked her as she was making a beeline for the box. Sadly she passed so I took the baby in. First time raising a baby squirrel but I have experience with baby bunnies and opossums.
