Squirrels are definitely one of the most entertaining Naperville creatures to watch. They are active and have a playful nature that is a delight to see. In case you heard a squeaking sound, you may want to look around your property. There is a possibility that you have a baby squirrel. On the off chance that you noticed that the mother squirrel is not around, they may require some assistance from you to stay safe. However, intervening should only be treated as your last resort.

A Complete Guide on Feeding the Baby Squirrel

When the Illinois squirrel has been orphaned, the first thing you have to do is to keep it warm. You should not immediately feed it. Feeding them with formula milk can be dangerous to them. To help you properly take care of the abandoned squirrel, you may follow this guide while waiting for the wildlife rehabilitators to come.

Rehydrating

Keeping them rehydrated is more crucial than providing them with Naperville food. Instead of using milk, we highly encourage you to use a Pedialyte. In case this is not available, you can simply mix an equal portion of sugar and salt to water. You should then feed it to the squirrel using a syringe. The pedialyte is excellent solution to rehydrate their body. We recommend you to look for the unflavored type.

Feeding syringe will not come with a needle. This will have a cone-shaped appearance on its top. This is normally used to administer liquid medications to various animals. It also works similarly to the regular syringe. Simply dip the edge of the syringe on the liquid and pull back the plunger in order to completely fill the vial. Gently and slowly press the plunger to drop a portion of the liquid into the mouth of the baby squirrel. Feeding the baby squirrel too fast will make the fluid enter their nasal passages that will make it difficult to breathe.

If the squirrel is having difficulty in ingesting the solution, support their body in a manner that they will assume a standing or sitting position. You should not feed them while they are lying on their back since it has the possibility to choke them. In case the baby squirrel is a bit active, you should hold them to restrain their movement while feeding them. It is recommended to wear protective gloves when holding the squirrel. 

A Squirrel That Refused to Drink

There are instances when the Illinois squirrel will refuse to drink. Wild animals will need to feel secured and safe first before they can pay attention to their hunger. You need to secure them first before feeding them. In case the baby squirrel still refused to drink, try to stimulate its genitals using warm piece of cloth. They will probably need to urinate before their body can take liquids. You need to place them in a warm and dim environment to simulate the setting of their hidden nest.

Finally, you should have the dedication and the patience when you are nursing an abandoned Naperville baby squirrel. You should never rush things since the squirrels will be able to feel your stress and discomfort.
