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.

Baby Kit B with heating pad and pocket nest
Love this kit ! Perfect for the motherless babies! I am thrilled with the B kit, service and quick shipping of Henry’s Pets. They truly care when I noted on my order that I was desperate! Ordered yesterday afternoon, and the kit arrived early this morning! Whew! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❣️

Baby Squirrel Kit
The kit came fast. Everything included was exactly as described. My only issue is that the measurement markings on the syringes came off within the first day or 2. Otherwise everything is great!

The formula saved a baby squirrel I fostered. I only had powdered kitten formula and it gave him horrible diarrhea. He lost 1/4 of his body weight in less than a week. Within 2 doses of the formula from Henry's he was back to normal. A week later he
I highly recommend this kit. Even if you don't rescue a baby squirrel often it's a great thing to have. The heating blanket was great!
