    Default 11 month old fox squirrel constantly wet?

    Suddenly Georgie is staying wet with urine on his abdomen. Why would this be?

    He is fed strictly according to the pyramid as far as fruits and vegetables go. He gets 2 picky blocks per day, plenty of fresh spring water and only get one or two nuts per month.

    Ok. I'll say it. It might not be urine. Yep. Mine does the same, it looks all wet and crunchy looking. Mine's not a very good groomer but after a few days he'll arrive all cleaned up; he gets around to it eventually.

    You need to determine whether this is urine or not and the best way is your nose. Next time he is wet, grab him and sniff. Squirrel pee is QUITE pungent.
