@Nonilex When my now 41 year old son was small, a baby squirrel showed up under a tree in our back yard. It's eyes weren't even open yet. My son consulted the then fledgling internet and got some advice about caring for an orphan squirrel. He also found contact information for the local wild animal rescue organization. We contacted them and there was a woman blocks from our house who could foster the little guy. She asked us if we wanted him back after he was old enough to get by on his own, explaining that squirrels are born knowing how to be squirrels. She warned that the only drawback would be that if the squirrel saw us come out into the yard he might jump out of tree on us because he was so happy to see us. "Squirrels have really sharp claws," she said. We left it up to her where to release it.
