Walking into the orientation in Rock Hill, the smallest attendees were also the hungriest: baby squirrels just a few inches long, cared for by the founders of Nutty by Nature.
The squirrel rescue rehabilitates orphaned and injured squirrels before releasing them back into the wild. For them, it’s about making sure every squirrel gets a chance.
Co-founder Catherine Rigby says they take in squirrels regardless of age.
“We don't discriminate on the age of squirrels, so we take in anything from displaced babies to very injured adults. So we provide a lot of support for all of the squirrels that come into our care”
The rescue is now looking for people nutty enough to help feed, transport and care for squirrels as they continue to house these climbing rodents.
