Your Baby Squirrel Kit will ship via USPS Priority Mail or FedEx within 24 hours, and should arrive in 2-3 days.

Important: First you warm them, then you hydrate them (1 cup warm water with a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of sugar), then you feed them. While you're waiting for your Fox Valley Formula to arrive, please use Homemade Goat's Milk formula (3 tbs goats milk, 3 tbs plain yogurt, 2 tbs heavy cream, 1/2 egg yolk). Never use human baby formula, plain milk, scalded milk, Esbilac, KMR (kitten formula), or any other store-bought puppy or kitten formula. Feed very slowly to avoid aspiration.
