You should contact your local Division of Wildlife and keep the baby squirrel safe until they can come pick it up. They will take it to a rescue center for wild animals, rehabilitate it and release it back into the wild when it is ready.





Good luck!H.E.L.P.!.!. okay i found a baby squirl.outside.. my cat was over it. idk if its hurt i haven't touched it yet?
Okay, take a pair of gloves and and pick the squirrel up GENTLY. If he moves or twitches, that's GREAT! Now put him in a shoe box or something similar. Put some veggies in there and watch if he moves to get the food. If he doesn't, pick him up and look for some injuries. I would just take him to a vet or someone who knows what they're doing.
You're going to have to be brave, put a pair of gloves on, and take it inside. I'd keep him in a shoe box and put some vegetables in there for it. With gloves still on, check for scratches, bitemarks , or broken bones. if there's any of those, the squirrel needs to be watched carefully. You might want to take him to the vet. If he doesn't seem to be hurt too bad, I'd take him somewhere away from your house where there's trees and wildlife and let him free there.
Call your local animal controll, they will help it for sure!!! The wqild life association's number you can find in a local phone book. Save the baby squirl!! They will make sure that the squirell is safe and is cared fopr properly. Good eye, and if you call, you can feel good about yourself for you just saved a baby squirrel!!!:-D
