Squeezle, Rikers, and Folsom: Squeezle was discovered running up to dogs at a training class at a local park! She had been orphaned when a storm destroyed her family's nest. Mothers often reject babies if the infant's body temperature gets too low. Squeezle was too young to understand the dangers of the world so she was taken in and cared for until she was properly weaned. Since squirrels do better after release if they are raised with other squirrels, so a kind rehabber from Wildlife Welfare transferred a pair of orphaned baby squirrels to us to keep Squeezle company. Folsom and Rikers grew to be two proud and playful boys. All 3 were returned to the wild in May. We wish them loads of luck and happiness.
