Has anyone ever had a pet squirel.......how do I tame it? Does it go to the vet? What do I do.
And what does this scripture mean...
Mat 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
Is there reward to come? Or is the fact that they are showing themselves and others see them, is others seeing them there only reward?
anyway had to make it a R&S .........DO YOU KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS A SQUIREL?

We had 2 when I was a kid. Nursed them to adulthood after finding them as babies. It is not a good idea to keep a squirrel. They can bite like few domestic animals. I know. I still have the scars. In some states, it is not legal to keep wild animals as pets so you need to find out. Really need to let it go.
Mathew 6: 5
Rewards, as I have been taught, are ours according to how we do in this life. This verse is telling us that if we make a show of our selves being 'religious', we will have already have gotten the reward since others may admire us, or we may have the satisfaction of showing off -'look at me, aren't I a good Christian?'. Whether it be the admiration or, more likely, the assumption of admiration from others, that is all we will get out of showing off.
If you read on, it says "don't let the right hand know what the left hand is doing". Meaning do good deeds discretely or in complete anonymity. A greater reward will be waiting in Heaven.
After reading your explanation about the squirrel, I suggest that you continue to feed it and spend time with it. Let the squirrel decide how friendly he wants to be. Don't try to force it to do anything. If it wants to interact more you will know it.

Sorry but you can not tame a squirrel. Yes you and the squirrel may get along and he might seem tame but if something really challenges it it will be just as visions as any wild one.
I lived where there were a lot of them when young and many would come eat from my hand. I took one in as a pet when it was three weeks old but later I knew it was not a pet like a cat is. I let it go be with the others. When they bite they really bite hard. They can actually splinter a bone in the finger.

If you found the squirell in the wild and it looks a little older it cant be tamed.
The passage means that you shouldnt pray because you want people to see you and think that you are very religious. The people who do that do it to feel good abuo themselves. You should pray because you mean it, not to impress anyone, thats why it is better to pray alone.

I have had family members try to raise wild animals, but if it is an adult I wouldn't try to keep it. If it is a baby you might can make it work and a vet visit would be in order to make sure it get it shot like any other animal. You also need to check your local and state laws on owning wild animals as well. Some vets can help answer your questions. Some vets will refuse to see wild animals.

I knew a woman that had a pet squirret once, but it was a baby when she found it wounded under a tree. I don't think its possible once they have matured. Also, many of them are rabid, so please be careful.
This scripture is referring to those who today would be known as Sunday morning Christians. They make a good show of it, but only for the recognition of men, not God. God sees what is really in the heart.
God bless you.

Ferrets does not be a stable decision, and that they do no longer seem to be nocturnal, this is in basic terms a fantasy. they do no longer see stable at evening the two. first easy and nightfall is terrific. even if, snakes and ferrets do no longer blend additionally ferrets are no longer caged animals, they choose extra desirable than 4 hours a time out of the cage. they're smarter than cats and canines so they're very unhappy restricted each and all of the time. The ferrets could certainly attempt to kill the snake and frogs and could spend all their time attempting to ascertain the thank you to do it. additionally, i could difficulty on the subject of the snake eating alot of smaller pets. Budgies are worried birds so they're no longer likely snuggle acquaintances for alot of persons. i could flow to a stable puppy keep with alot of categories of animals and spot who you bond with the terrific. purchase the "____ for dummies" e book approximately that animal, and spot if it could paintings on your kin. (or in line with risk you ought to lease it from the library even) yet I completely do no longer propose a ferret immediately. I even have 5 and that they are somewhat costly and time eating. we don't cage ours in any respect and we've 3 cats, a canines and a bunny. The bunny won't be able to additionally be seen with the help of the ferrets, it could have a coronary heart attack and die precise there. stable success, pets are stunning.

hypocrites love to be seen in the public eye prayin' and goin' to church .."look how pious and religious I am"...you know, the ones who booze it up saturday night and go to church and criticize everyone else on sunday...
squirrels are wild creatures and shouldn't really be used as pets. i knew a guy who had flying squirrels, but he was from alabama and i think his family ate them one night.

my family found one at the park before and tried to keep it as a pet. They can't be tamed I don't think. Trust me you are better off letting it go.
