That's sad. I thought they made good pets. You know lots more about them than I do...but in this case, I hope you are wrong.
He is doing much better, eating different things, He will squeal to let me know he wants some attention, He's training me well. I will try to post a pic tomorrow.

Does he have a name yet?
Yes, Jimmy
I hand raised 1 orphan squirrel. Syrigne feeding, snuggles and cuddles. I was so sad the day he started biting and within that week was darn near totally wild.
It's cute to see these updates. Brings back memories.

Yes I’ve rescued many. Cute until they come into their own lol
Here are some pics from today,
I love that kitty!!!! Beautiful!
If I just saw the first picture with the cat, I would not think that ended well. Lol
That's Kasey, shes harmless, she doesn't even know shes a cat.
Jimmy is still doing good, Getting more adventurous and getting to know the other animals.

At what age do they suddenly revert to a wild state? On average?
I don't know.
Jimmy is still doing fine and growing, But I think he may be deaf. When he's asleep and I'm going to get him out of his cage for awhile I call him and whistle and no reaction. He doesn't wake up until I touch him.This may be normal, I don't know. Here's a couple pics from a little bit ago.

Could it be he was rejected from the nest because his mother detected his hearing impairment?

Sounds like a real possibility to me. Mama animals are so good at detecting things like that!
Jimmy can hear, He is just good at ignoring me when he doesn't want to be bothered. He is old enough now that his survival instincts have kicked in, If a sharp noise or strange noise or a sudden movement by something or one of the other animals happens he freezes for a second to check things out. He still wants to hang onto me most of the time, but will venture off onto something else (except the floor).
He goes to the floor but hasn't stepped off onto it yet.
Took this pic last night, don't know why the background came out black, wish i did, could use that effect sometimes to get a better pic.
