What to do if a rescued baby squirrel won't eat or drink?

Question

I'm in Texas and there was a really bad storm I found a squirrel baby on the side of the Street onSunday. We've been sleeping ever since he won't eat or drink

Poor thing. These babies can be really tough and chances are he may need to be tube fed or bottle fed. This needs to be done by a certified rehaber. I know your region is pretty devasted but try to find a veterinarian or a rehaber right away. This is not something that should or can be done well at home .
