I wanted to do rehab for years but didn't get my license until this past year. I got started by raising hatching house sparrows that had fallen from a nest that couldn't be reached. From there I took in several eastern cottontails who had been attacked by cats. My favorite case however was an 3 week old eastern grey squirrel, who the finders named Penelope Jane. When Penelope arrived she was barely 70 grams, severely dehydrated, and having diarrhea due to the finders feeding her kitten milk formula. With time and TLC Penelope quickly recovered and grew into a gorgeous fluffy squirrel. After several months of hard work she was released into the woods on my families property. She is thriving and living the best squirrely life. Because of Penelope, I have decided to focus most of my time and resources helping squirrels. I recently started "Serendipity Squirrels" where I will post updates on the animals in my care and share resources. I am excited for another year of rehabbing and an incubator will be a huge help to all the animals I take in.
