Actually, as a squirrel rehabilitator myself, I would suggest that those who couldn't get a rehabber should do exactly as this woman did. Doing research for proper diets, temperatures, amounts to feed, etc is the most important factor for a young squirrel's survival. Vets can sometimes take the animal, but usually won't keep it in the long run, and will seek out other rehabbers.

This is why geobeats is problematic. Squirrels are not domesticated, and they prefer being outside. This is not like having a pet dog or even rabbit. This is actual prison for the squirrel.

​@@AtillatheFunThank u for the judgemental arrogance. No, squirrels aren't domesticated. Yes, they're born to live outside. But these weren't options here. She deserves a medal by saving the tiny creature the best way she could! Animals of all kinds are much more adaptable than you give them credit.

You can tell how much you absolutely adore him just from the tone of your voice, he clearly has a very, very special place in your heart. The fact you knew absolutely nothing about squirrels, yet took this little defenceless newborn in, & cared for him like a human newborn with strict feeding schedules etc round the clock, taught yourself everything there is to know about squirrels.. speaks volumes on your beautiful character. I wonder if Gordon’s mum abandoned him after detecting something was wrong? I’m so glad you found him & you & your family were the perfect people for the job. Sending love & blessings to all of you 💗 xx

Some animals will abandon their babies when they know they are sick or have some sort of physical or nuerological disorder. That's what happened with our Boo. She was paralyzed from the waist down so she couldn't climb but she was so perfect no matter what. We had her for nearly four years before she passed away in 2012. I miss her every day.

​@@anakatsukifangirl2944 You nourished your soul by giving such unconditional love, just like Gordon's rescuer. Sadly, Gordon's biological mom not only abandoned him, its likely she physically removed him from the nest. But to everything there is a purpose, and Gordon's purpose was with this lovely family.

He is so adorable. My brother saved a tiny squirrel who fell out of the neighbor’s tree. He and his wife have saved many animals over the years so they made Suzy their second daughter, made her healthy and happy and took her to their friend’s beautiful farm, condo cage and all. Suzy lives like a queen and has been seen entertaining the neighbor squirrels now and then. Bless all the folks who rescue and heal animals in need. You are heroes.

When I was a kid, decades before you could instantly access almost any info via the internet, I found many abandoned baby animals - squirrels, rabbits, birds, etc. Equipped with little more than "common sense" and a love for animals, I rescued, fed, and rehabbed them as best as I could. Looking back, I'm amazed how well most of them recovered.

Thank goodness for people like this, Gordon got lucky landing in her driveway.

I raised one many yrs ago. My husband found him while at work & he too had fallen out of the nest. My favorite memory is waking up after dozing off for a little while after getting my husband & kids off to work & school & finding him taking a bath on the kitchen table in one of the bowls of milk left from one of my kid's cereal. He had flung milk a country mile & some of the milk on him had started to dry & was stiff. I had a good laugh with nobody else around to enjoy it. They are very sweet, but in my experience once grown they get to a point where nature kicks in & they start to turn wild & aggressive. We returned him to the wild, which I believe is where he wanted to be.

When I was about 6 years old, my dad found a small injured squirrel on his way to work and brought it home to take care of him. Back then we used to boil the milk in a pot to pasteurize it (this was before it was done in the milk factory). Well, one day I was chasing the little guy and fell right into the pot of milk, luckily it was cool already. Needless to say he got scared, ran off and disappeared in our home. We've been looking all over, and finally after 2 days we found the little fellow wrapped up under some blankets in the laundry room. heh I never forget this incident, it was hilarious. :)

Really is a special relationship, and maybe in the grand scheme of things, you were chosen to be his special human! Thank you for being there for him!

GOD BLESS these people for adopting these beautiful animals!!

Thank you for loving him. ❤️

You are one goodhearted person. Bravo for helping this little soul.

There is nothing crazy about loving any creature. What is crazy is that true love is such a rarity today.

Oh my gracious sakes that is the cutest pup ever!

How precious! Thank you for caring for one of God's little creatures. There is a special place in heaven for you. 🙏🧡

Cannot even sit without falling over; also, flies towards you like a terrifying ghost.

My chihuahua brought a baby fox squirrel up from somewhere and gently laid the baby on our back door mat, back when I was a kid. It was so sweet because she knew that baby needed help because she had puppies at the time so she had her own babies to take care of, 9 of them to be exact. We raised Chester to be a big ol, full grown, fox squirrel. He was really a handsome squirrel. We built a big enclosure in my backyard for him complete with a tunnel of wire that led up a big pine tree and way out on a limb so he could lay on his little arms and sunbathe on warm days. He eventually got a bit aggressive because he was a male after all, so we released him as we had planned. He did well. We saw him from time to time.

Your care for his life and livelihood will forever be imprinted on you both. Your dedication is impeccable and so very admirable. Wild animals are unpredictable by nature, for them to survive in the wild. You gave him the beautiful life he needed. You are a kind soul and have given selflessly to make his possible. Utter respect.

It's totally understandable why he trusts you. He knows you're his mother and that you've been devoted to him since the moment you found him. Blessings all around 💕🐾

God Bless u for saving him..he would have died out there that night in your driveway. Gordon had a guardian angel watching over him & u saved his lIfe. You & Gordon have each other now. What a beautiful love story🥰🥰

Did that twice. Mom rarely takes back or already lost her life before they crawl out of the nest. Our last one bonded with me being the two hour feeder and had a great personality. At six months they often bite and leave. They normally return with a partner and babies of their own. Gordon is cute and males are very affectionate with women. Sweet little man.

💕 I understand why Gordon loves & trusts her. He thinks she's "Mom." I also understand why she loves him. Even from here, I love that sweet silly little angel too!💕X🥰O💕X🥰O💕X🥰O💕

I raised a baby Grey Squirrel. Their noses are right next to their mouth as babies compared to Red Squirrels and it was so hard to feed my squirrel without him choking. It was just like raising a baby as far as feeding hours. I wanted to keep him but I ended up releasing him bc he was so bored in the house by himself all day. They are the most amazing athletes and way smarter and loving than some people know.

He is as precious as this wonderful lady who had raised him ❤️ thank you for doing him such a great service of compassion ❤️

You are a great lady. Thank you for caring.

I was a wildlife rehabilitator for years. Squirrels are a lot of work but soo rewarding! They are fun watch play with each other. I’m not sure how many I have rehabilitated and released back into the wild but it was >50.

The squirrel knows how much she loves him! And it’s beautiful to see!

Well thank you for saving this little squirrel. You were chosen to be Gordon's mom. And you helped him grow and become an awesome child. And I think that's great you saved him. And thank you for doing that. When I see squirrels I'm always going to think of this video. 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾💗

Thank you so much for giving this baby boy a chance at life.

Aw he’s lucky he has such a caring person in his life. She’s lucky she was taking the trash out that night!

The cutest video ever of a squirrel & his human tree. Lol! Adorable.

To be chosen by an animal is one of the greatest gifts to have bestowed on you. Gordon is safe and seems well content with his life, thanks to this beautiful lady. ❤

That's great! Very happy for Gordon!

She is his tree, his mom, his nest, his strawberry and his best friend. Perfect!

Awwww. This was so touching. Thank you for taking such kind care of this wee creature.

You have a heart of gold! When it became obivious that Gordon was injured permanently from the fall from the nest; you stepped up and adopted him!

Absolutely melted my heart. He is so blessed to have a mum that gave him a chance to have a good life. I have had animals all my life dogs, cats, birds, rescued wildlife and many others. They give so much love and joy.

Thank you for rescuing a squirrel, love and life to you and your family:)

The way he recovered is just amazing.

So glad he was found in front of your home. You were meant to care for him! He is so cute and special.

Thank you for sharing this with me. I’m so so glad that you went out to the rubbish bins that night. The bond created between a animal and a human is incredible, and is especially so when that animal is injured and totally reliant upon you for their survival. Well done squirrel mumma and thanks to your beautiful family for everything you have done for Gordon. I’m sure that he returns the love 10-fold in his own squirrelly way. All the best from an ever so slightly envious Australian squirrel lover. 🙂🐿🌈❤️ P.s my father was from the United States and he raised a squirrel as well as a chipmunk when he was a young man. Growing up those were my absolute favourite memories that he would share with me. Whenever we would travel to the US and visit with family, my dad would always always make time to take me out to watch the squirrels and other small animals in the area. To this day, my much older sister still sends me pictures of the local squirrels that visit her property. And another relative noticed that the squirrels near her place would travel along a certain route each day - they had even created a little worn path from using it so often. One visit we installed a “Squirrel Crossing” sign that we made during the holidays. I remember sitting back a ways with some binoculars. I’d be out there for hours just watching the squirrels coming and going along their little pathway - I was obsessed. Squirrels, chipmunks and birds are my kind of people ❤

Sweet video of love and compassion. More please.

Incredible

Much respect for you for your tender care for this wild little animal. Thanks for sharing!

That is so good for you that you and the animals genuinely love him! ❤

Какая чудесная женщина.🌷

So wonderful she respects him as wildlife and would never keep him as a pet if he was able to survive in the wild.❤️

All animals deserve the human kindness and help little Gordon got. The love and joy Gordon gives in return speaks for itself.

This video made me all happy inside. It is just great when I c people taking in animals that need help to survive bcuz they wouldn’t be able to live in the wild. I can imagine it being very difficult yet it’s in their hearts to do the work 💯 Within the best for Gordon and his family ☺️

Such a sweet lady.

What a lovely woman. Very lucky squirrel.

A very fortunate squirrel that you found him, it's quite possible he was ejected from his nest because of the problems he has, nature being hard nosed that way, and a very rewarding experience for that kind hearted lady.🙂

Bravo to you lady!! You have become the mama that Gordon didn't know. Squigges are such special critters to me. How absolutely wonderful for your boys and friends to experience raising Gordon. Seeing you rub his belly and him raising his tiny legs is mesmerizing. I so miss all of the squigges where I used to live. There is one lone squigge who comes into the yard from the forest behind. Keeps me entertained as he scurries along the fence, stopping at each post before scurrying to the next one. Thank you for giving Gordon a chance for a happy life 🐿️
