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.

Squirrels
Very useful for baby squirrels, they take it right in and the instructions on the package help a lot. It is also easy to mix.

Squirrel kit
So happy to have found Henrys! We found a baby squirrel and were not sure what to do. Henrys instructions are perfect, such a life saver for how to care for baby. The syringes work so well, much better than the bottles we were using. Baby squirrel Todd really lives the cozy pocket for sleeping.
Thank you! -

Super for baby squirrels
Wonderful that Henry’s pets has a fast shipment choice! This kit is wonderful ! My two babies had been abandoned by their mother in the cold due to loud and busy construction. Estimate they are about 2 weeks old, so this kit is fine for them now, and in the coming weeks. Adore Henry’s Pets. They care!

Baby squirrel kit
My baby squirrel was a little older so I got the kit with stage 2 formula and squirrel blocks. It arrived promptly and I'm very happy with the quality of the food, though I have to say my squirrel shreds the blocks and a lot of it goes unconsumed. I love that it came with the squirrel guide, but I wish I had had some choice in the syringes. I got ones threes and fives. I'm not comfortable using a five even when his appetite increases, and the ones are too small. I would have preferred more threes.

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 ❣️
