Squirrels don't like to go into the water because they live in trees all year round and are not familiar with the water environment, so they don't like to go into the water. After a squirrel enters the water, it will quickly wet its body, which can easily cause it to catch a cold or get sick. Domestic squirrels are likely to drown if forced into water. If you want to give a squirrel a bath, you can provide squirrel-specific bathing sand. Squirrels will use the sand to remove dirt and bacteria from their bodies.

What to do if a squirrel goes into the water:

1. If it is submerged in water, you can wipe it clean with a tissue after rescuing it, and then press its chest.

2. Wrap in a towel and blow dry with hot air at the lowest setting of the hair dryer. If you have a runny nose, take some Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.
