His fur has come in nicely but he still has a little rat tail with a lion's tuft.
He's also decided that I'm not so bad. He will gently take his grapes from me now. ❤️

She's one of the most joyful squirrels I have ever known. She doesn't like to come out of her cage though. It's her safe space and panicks if she can't see the bars over her head. Otherwise, life is good for her. ❤️

You can see he is losing fur - something that often happens in cases of malnutrition. He's going through treatment for internal parasites and hopefully after that he will start gaining and regrowing his coat.

A squirrel with her disabilities - vision impairment and a neurological condition - wouldn't last long in the wild. Crumpet lucked out. She's got a soft warm nest, plenty of food and toys and no predators to fear.

Elliott is scared little guy. Imagine getting your face fractured and then getting picked up by a scary human.

She may not see very well and she may wobble a bit but she knows how to party. ❤️

Elliott was found on the road this morning in Claremont. Initially mistaken for dead, he may have been clipped by a car or he fell from the nest. His mom was around but he was injured enough that he needed medical intervention.

Crumpet is not completely blind - she can't see very well but she can see if it's close to her face. She actually prefers her small cage probably because she feels secure and can see the whole cage. She plays, is active and eats well.

Last week she went out to The Janet L. Swanson Wildlife Hospital at Cornell University for a thorough examination to determine what exactly was making her walk with difficulty.

Once again, Stonyfield to the rescue!
Can you tell that Crumpet likes her Stonyfield Whole Milk Vanilla Yogurt?
I guess Stonyfield goes well on, I mean with, Crumpets.

But somehow, the stars aligned just right. I think it was with the help of a certain smiling blind squirrel that helped Danielle bring this little girl, now named Crumpet, to my door this afternoon.

Generally porcupines aren't all touchy/feel-y for obvious reasons but they can be affectionate.
Peekaboo is very independent and can be rather grumpy but he waits for me by his enclosure's door every afternoon.

The squirrels that remain are Emmett, Brian and Grasshopper. Brian's teeth look better so there is a good chance he can go free too soon! ❤️

Grasshopper was rescued as baby last year and was living happily as a pet until the landlord found out about him. After threatening to call law enforcement, Grasshopper was brought to Fourwands Wildlife.

Peggy appears to be responding to treatment at home so for the time being, she is staying home. At some point she may need to go for x-rays but she certainly seems to be walking better even if it's still not quite right. She is eating better as well.
