Squirrel update: Am arranging cage purchase via Criagslist. Today we pulverized some rodent kibble and mixed it into their formula. Booboo's doing great. Sticky got another bath. Sticky's future dad started feeling :/ because a squirrel is 10-20 year commitment and the longer you have them, the likelier they are to fail in the wild if you decide to let them go. BUT Sticky would probably fail in the wild either way so he feels absolved of future-guilt with that being pointed out.
Sticky would probably fail in the wild, even with SquirrelMom, because she is runty (~2/3 the size of Booboo) and can't nurse competently (Doesn't suck, so we have a special bottle with an extra hole in the nipple so it dribbles out for her; bites and yanks, so maybe mom would have kicked her out; makes a mess, hence 'Sticky')
