Help!! Found 4 baby squirrels!?

My mom and dad found four baby squirrels tearing up the roof an hour or two ago..We don't know how old they are(we think they are 4-5 weeks old though) and every person we've called to help won't answer..My mom and dad don't want them in the house because we have no where to put them except for a giant box with many holes for breathing...what do we do?Help!! Found 4 baby squirrels!?
keep them as pets so they can bite off your face.Help!! Found 4 baby squirrels!?
you can't really do anything for them if they lost their parents and if they arnt full grown and still need milk/other source of food and cant get it on thier own then their screwed pretty much
look up how old they have to be till they can be on there own and take them to the park?
my friend had 4 baby racoons and they had a huge cage the size of a shed made out of chicken wire and wood with giant branches in them and when they got older (and aggressive) they took them to a animal rescue place
Even if you cannot get ahold of them tonight, call animal control IMMEDIATELY!!! they will help the baby animals and do not kill them


Dont keep them in your house! a garage or shed or porch would be the closest you should put them to you and your family. I understand they are cute and its sad their mom is gon but they also are imfamous for deadly disease. You should risk your familys health for the comfort of some cute squirells!!! I advise leaving them in the box with an old sheet or t shirt until u can get them to animal control.
get rid of it, it could be full of diseases
buy some pet bottle at the pet store
We also find baby squirrels all the time...and we don't have to time to raise them...sometimes there are squirrel rescue facilities that will take them and raise them....thats what we usually do if we find any of them...so i would look around in the phone book or online for the nearest one to you..good luck
take them to a vet, or animal hospital! they will know what to do
Take them to the woods and turn them loose. They are animals and wild and they will figure out what to do. They are tearing up a roof...so they already know.





We catch ground hogs and turn them loose..even the babies...they survive much better than YOU taking care of them. They are wild and need to be so.
We took in a baby squirrel after seeing her brother being taken away by a hawk. We had her all winter and let her loose the following spring. Here is a good website to look at for information -

Throw them up into the trees. Mommy will find them eventually by their calls.
I know they are very quite, However they are rodents, They also know how to do a lot of damage if they get into the house. Call the Humane Society they should come and take them of your hands.

a squirrel rescue site that has some useful information on it...may point you in the right direction to help em...
You can keep them in the box but you will need a baby bottle to feed them with. Call a conversation officer and he will link you with someone that can help.
Where do you live?





Can you describe them to me? Are their eyes open yet? Are their tails already fluffy?





I am a wildlife rehabber and I rescue squirrels all the time. I have 7 right now actually.





For now, just put them in a box and keep them quiet. Don't try to handle them or anything. If you tell me what state you live in I might be able to find you some help.





DONT try to feed them anything!
call the humane society
