Puppy milk replacement. I know it seems like it should be kitten formula, but its not. I raised 3 orphaned baby red squirrels from about 1 week old till they were old enough to be on their own. They're adorable, and very quick, babies! After they're to the point of being able to eat solid food, give fresh fruits and veggies native to your area, so when they're released, they'll be use to the native food. Good luck!

I worked doing wildlife rehab for a number of years. The best thing you can give baby squirrels is goats milk, it is most similar to that which they get from their mothers.
You can buy it at any natural/ organic food store.

what state are you in? In most states, what you are doing is illegal. Bring it to a rehabilitation center, or you could get jail time and fines depending on the species.
