Read the post about racoons as pets.

These are wild animals and need to live in their natural environments and not a cage in your home.

Comment #3 Elaine (82.41.240.49) -

George......are you mad? Why on earth would you want to cage a wild animal as a pet. I suggest you but a cat /dog or better still don't buy anything. You do not sound like the right person who should be keeping ANY pets.

Elaine or jimmy... either of you guys know where i can find baby rabbits to slaughter and cage? or how about some ferrits, why don't you people take your green peace crap, save the whales comments to yourselves. He said nothing remotly wrong.

So we can cage cows and chickens and pigs right? im sure u like tasty chicken on the grill dont you? or are you a salad shooter...

In any event, if you have nothing better to do, but nit pick somones comments on a site such as this, then you might be better off drowning yourself in a shallow mud puddle.

I know that sometimes the nature center in our area has small baby squirrels in April and May. They typically want people to take them and nurse them, but maybe they would allow you to adopt one? check and see if there is a center in your area.

Is he raising the squirrel for food?

I have to agree with Elaine and Jimmy, and its not Green Peace crap -- its thinking about what would make the animal happier.

so does anyone happen to know how much flying squirrels are???

Comment #8 John (152.163.36.178) -

Enjoy the squirrels in your backyard. Feed them. Treat them well. But they are not pets.

Comment #9 Kim (142.166.242.188) -

I really have to agree with these previous posts. Squirels or any wild animal for that matter do not make good pets. Leave them outdoors and enjoy them in their natural habitat. You can still enjoy them without caging them.

Yikes! Relax everyone! He was just asking! I wouldnt want to cage one myself because they are not domesticated. I have a hard time with ferrets as well because i think they are still to feral for my liking.

Comment #11 Nick (68.112.236.104) -

Ferret's too feral? Ferrets have been domesticated for thousands of years, even by the egyptians...and they make incredible pets if trained correctly and given enough attention. Squirrels also make awesome pets...my housemate has two southern flyers which are great. Red squirrels look fun but i hear they're big "chatter boxes" and grey's i'm just not sure of. They need ALOT of time and care as you need to get them young and have them on you constantly for a few weeks so they form a bond.

Go here and don't listen to these strange people ;-)

Nice words Nick. Ive been around a few ferrets and they all nip and bite unless they are handled all the time. To me that doesn't indicate a long history of domestication. I wouldnt recommend a ferret or a squirrel to a family.

I have a pet squirrel abd I would not recomend it. He is 2 years old now and although he was very nice when he was younger he is now he is not very nice. WHen he started to get mean I neutered him thinking that it would help but I was wrong. If I had to do it all over Again I would not have gotten him

You want a grey squirrel come over to my house and take your pick! I would be happy to get rid of them. They ate a hole the eave of our house and now they live in our attic. They are eating every thing. The chewed all wires in my xmas tree lights and I had to go and buy new ones!! Sorry to vent, but why in the world would you want a squirrel as a pet?

Comment #15 Sandy Hagopian (24.178.255.144) -

I raised a gray squirrel that was orphaned after a tree was cut down. Her eyes were not open yet. As soon as she was able to eat, I released her in my yard, making sure that she had a squirrel box to sleep in if necessary. I figured she would just run away. However, I have had a lot of enjoyment out of her. She is very territorial and protective of the property. I can go out to the yard and call her and she usually comes. I feed her nuts several times a day. At first she was very loving. I could actually pick her up and often petted her. Now she is wilder. She still jumps on my shoulder, takes a nut from my hand but sometimes growls or grabs at my hand with her front feet. I have never seen her with another squirrel and there are a few in our neighborhood. I myself would gladly raise other orphaned squirrels but I would never keep one caged. They do take a lot of a person's time but the end result is worth it.

What is your peoples problem????? yea i see why you can put up an argument about keeping them caged, but your talking like he plans on setting up a trap in his back yard, catching a squrril, then throwing it into a shoe box to live in until it dies!!! you would be surprised what makes good pets! you have to remember that all animals were wild at one point in time! you talk like having a racoon is a sin or somthing but im sure every one talking crap has a cat or dog or bird or somthing that was once a free animal!!! have any of you ever been to key west? the roosters and hens run free in the streets! so are you trying to tell me anybody who keeps a chicken as a pet is a horrable person???

now george... defintly go to www.ratkateers.com. they are awesome and very friendly. all their animals are hand raised. good luck!!!
