Squirrels don't really make a good pet.

And if you * caught * her - and just yesterday? - Then she isn't a pet - she's a wild creature that you are trying to keep in your house.

Put her''bed''near an open window or open door - and give her 5 minutes or less. She'll head to her own recuperation program.



Enjoy squirrels in the trees - not so much in your house.



(Have had''tame''squirrels that lived by our house - and would come up and beg for treats - and even would climb up in my lap or lay sprawled out near me. They were still always wild.)
How do you know it is sick?

It may simply be terrified of being in captivity.

Better if you return it to where you got it.
Put her back where her Mother can care for her. You shouldn't catch wild pets.
Maybe you should be in captivity.
Wow, umm try letting her go. that would make her SO much happier!
