💞🐿️🌳🍁
Sweet Ranger has welcoming kindness for little Alexander.
Ranger has her latest litter living with her, overwintering, sharing body warmth and safety in her home. They are now a couple months old, and has finished her milk production for them, so she will not be nursing, adopting, raising, or Alexander.
However, the sounds and smells of a squirrel familiar family, daily access will keep him connected to his Sciuridae species while we get his weight up, and prepare him to meet another squirrel to pair with.
Hopefully that happens before too long, but I’m so happy he’s safe.
Still a bit nervous suddenly in human hands, having lovely Ranger is a great gift. She visits both visit inside the clinic and some fresh air near her nest outside helping to keep his ‘squirrel paws grounded in his natural world’.
Eventually, come spring, he will be released to the wild, given a second chance at life he was born to.
