let them stay wild. peace!
Most squirrel species are not endangered, and it is legal to keep them. They do not, however, make good pets. They need huge areas to excercise in or they develop behavioral disorders. They pee and poop on everything, can chew threw most materials, and can inflict severe bites. It doesn't matter how sweet and loving that little baby you've hand raised seems, he/she WILL change--have no doubt! Release humanely when the time is right.
Check. different, states, countries and provinces have different laws. I don't know where you are! They can carry the plague, Hantiviirus, rabies and a list of things. Unless you gave them shots, kept them indoors and collars I wouldn't even think of it.... But please check
Check with your local fish %26amp; game dept. Most times

keeping a wild animal, like a squirrel, requires a permit.

I know you wont like this but squirrels don't make good

pets. They just aren't domistacated.

Try Sugar Gliders which do make good pets.

Sometimes called Australian Flying Squirrels,

there actually not a squirrel. Sugar gliders are

small marsupials. They look like squirrels so maybe

check them out %26amp; see what you think.

Hope this helps.
