His name is Mouse.

While we work on setting up an official Rando Critters 501c3, if you want to donate towards rando critters milkies, you can use the link in the bio of @RandoLand_us

Mouse the opossum thanks you.

[Critters @RandoCritters]

No luck finding sweet Mouse. He escaped out into the world. I'm hopeful he returns but if not I hope he enjoys his freedom and doesn't struggle. We live in a pretty remote wooded area... so he has a chance of surviving for a while. I will post any updates if there are any 😩

[Oilfield Rando @Oilfield_Rando]

Mouse is missing. We are utterly devastated. It’s insanely unlikely but please pray that we find him.

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@TheSciencePhD @Oilfield_Rando Set traps. Hoping for the best 🙏

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@Elumin_8 Depends how clean you can keep their environment. He has an enclosure.

Chronicles of bathing Mouse 🛁 He got lots of treats after this.

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@Nomad66843968 @Oilfield_Rando Im a professional wildlife rehabber and Mouse didn't meet release criteria with his 11 siblings. We love him but i'd never intentionally seek one out as a pet 😅 Messy, needy and often stinky.

[Critters @RandoCritters]

Mouse is having a post bath time nap in his pod 😴

[Critters @RandoCritters]

Today is bath day 🥲

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@PossumPatriot He is a grackle!

[Critters @RandoCritters]

Kermits first bath 🛁 Only about a week longer and he will be sent out to the big wide world.

Happy Mothers Day!

[Critters @RandoCritters]

Good evening my mom just washed my butt bc it was kinda dookily - Mouse

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@BowTiedGSV Oh he is good! Lots of things happening at the homestead so not as much time for social media 😅

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@Beezerally @JakeThirteenth Great job 👍

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@koo_doo2 @Oilfield_Rando Its a grackle. Starling have wide, bright yellow mouths. Very different.

@koo_doo2 @EmperorBasilisk @Oilfield_Rando He's a grackle. Starling have wide, bright yellow mouths

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@Beezerally @JakeThirteenth The pedialyte is absolutely something a rehabber would do! Just a little is fine. They can go quite a while without food/water but not very long without warmth. You're doing everything right! If you have trouble finding a sanctuary call some local vets. They usually can help!

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@JakeThirteenth @Beezerally Hard to say based on a photo, but #1 for a baby squirrel is heat! Get it on a heating pad set on the lowest setting or a sock filled with rice and heated. Google your local wildlife rescue. Generally advised not to feed or offer water till rescue. Very easy to drown a weak baby.

@AngelaL15908072 If you cant find him a rehab until monday, cat kibble soaked in water works in a pinch short term.

[Critters @RandoCritters]

@AngelaL15908072 Keep quite and dark in a box with a towel. You can offer a shallow dish of water for lapping. If you live in a state where it is legal to house opossums, in theory you could... but even though they are cuties I don't recommend it. Lots of dietary requirements and health problems
