Help with baby food (grey squirrel)

I found 2 baby grey squirrel 4 days ago.
I don't know what to give them for food.

At the moment, I give them some cat milk
plus some grapes cut in half, pine nuts,
peanuts, walnuts, oat flakes.

When giving milk to them, they sometimes make
bubbles from the nose which I guess is not good.
I give little at the time so this won't happen.
they like grapes very much.

I don't know how old they are. they are grey,
the eyes are opened, the belly is white. The hairs
from the tail are starting to be fluffy but only since
the last 2 days. Before they were near the tail.

One is a bit bigger than the other and can eat nuts. The other
can eat grapes but has a tough time eating nuts.


PLease, any guidance is welcomed. I live in a city in Canada and
I can't bring them to a facility where they can be raised.
