Baby Squirrel
My search for proper employment still leaves me emptyhanded. Everyone is looking for kennel help, but that’s not necessarily what I want. I’d like to do Vet Tech work, and if I have to move up a chain to get there, then I guess that’s what I’ll have to settle for. I want to know how help animals moreso than taking care of them in everyday procedures. I’ve done that all my life so I’m quite aware of how much to feed an animal and what to look for. But medicines and fecal floats and urine cultures, that’s where I want to expand myself.
The hours are going to have to be a factor too. I don’t think I can handle another 3pm-10pm 6day a week job. Especially one where there are weeks that I don’t have a single day off at all. Lets hope I get lucky.
I have been blessed with another gift. Some of you may remember the Baby Hawk, “Comanche,” I found last year. Which by the way I do see every so often dive-bombing the neighbors for fun. Well this year it appears to be a baby squirrel. Due to our neighbors we have an excessive number of felines running around and there was no way that this squirrel was climbing any tree. I saw him earlier this morning around 10am and decided to sit outside for an hour or so to see if I could catch him. Unfortunately he didn’t return but later on my father found him while feeding our rabbits. As I type this, he is nestled comfortably on my bosom, sleeping like a baby. My father is out buying puppy formula, a cc marked dropper, and some gatorade (in case he is dehydrated). I spent a good portion of an hour doing some research on squirrels since this will be my first. My Vet experience comes in handy too, which is good. I just wish I had more ![]()
Anyway, I haven’t found a name for him yet, any ideas?
I think my poison ivy is finally dying off. I hope it’s completely gone by the time I go camping. My friend Sati sent an e-mail to the Druids list talking about how this camping trip is going to be an escape from our mundane lives where we get to forget about bills and electronics and the internet and just dig our feet into the ground, enjoying life and spring. It was really inspiring and has me even more psyched. I am going to cheat though, I’m going to keep my cellphone in my truck for emergencies, and so I can talk to Ex #4 ![]()
I found this story about an amazing death-defying dog from Teresa’s site. Absolutely amazing.
