Squirrel update

Nine days since I got the little flying squirrel.  He's now about 1/2 ounce.  He still hasn't opened his eyes--I expect that to happen in about a week.  Cute as he is, I am *so* looking forward to that.  When they're old enough to open their eyes, they're also old enough to go overnight without eating.  As it is, he's getting 2 a.m. feeding.  I have it down to a fine art--I can get up, warm up his milk, feed him, wash the syringe, and be back in bed in 12 minutes.  But I'm still feeling a bit sleep-deprived.

But don't you think this is worth it??
