You can try stimulating the puppy's instinct to nurse by gently stroking its mouth and face with your finger. If the puppy still won't feed, you can try using a syringe to express some milk and gently feed it to the puppy. It's important to seek advice from a veterinarian if the puppy continues to have difficulty feeding.
The pup may need to be tube-fed....your Vet can instruct you on what to feed, how to feed (so you don't endanger the pup) and how often to feed.
more then three times a a day
Preferably by it's mother... but failing that, I'd say the same way you'd care for a pup. Bottle feed it puppy milk if it's still young, if it's old enough to eat solids, just feed it puppy food or raw meat.
i will not tell you because you may not feed that baby squirrel the food i was about to give . ask a vet . ask its mother . but do not ask me . i am not a squirrel expert . neither is my dog . she eats them .
No, a baby rat is typically called a pup, kitten, or sometimes a pinky if it is newborn and hairless.
