Then maybe look into getting help taking care of it. There are lots ofthings that you probably can't find on the internet that might beessential for keeping this baby alive. There are lots of things anyonecould do that they don't think would harm them that could. I stillsuggest getting help in taking care of it. If it was me, I would letsomeone who knows about wildlife to take care of it, it would probablyhave a better survival rate, but that's just me.

You are doing a good job and rescuing the rabbit from the cat was good,I just wish you might want to get a bit of help from as you said, yourwildlife friend for advice.
 
a wild rabbit need professional care ..it is notright to try to do it yourself or to keep the rabbit for yourself . youneed to find a wild life rehabilitator..Is it possible for you to keepyour cat inside for awhile and put the rabbit back outside where youfound it??
 
I am down in the southeast of oklahoma in hugo!
Thats cool both of us from oklahoma!
Anway from now on I will ignore all comments or give a strong rebuttal about giving it to someone or letting it go.
ITS NOT HAPPENING!
And as my fellow oklahoma said
if it lives it lives if it dies it dies
 
Has the rabbit pooped or peed yet? I love allrabbits, and this rabbit has a chance at life that you, if you don'tget advice might loose it!

It's not just a thing of if it lives it lives if it dies it dies. Ifyou release it, it can still live a full life. Take it to a place whereyour cat can't get it and release it. If you really cared about it'swell being you'd do that! If you don't feel like letting it go atleastturn it over to SOMEONE who knows what they're doing. You don't want tohear these remarks? Well it's our opinion and I feel it's best for thisrabbit!

This has turned into someone who was sincere who has turned selfish! :banghead:rant

Yep, this kid definitely has issues....

I am truly amazed that someone would allow their pride to decide the life and/or well being of an innocent animal.

ITS NOT OLD ENOUGH TO BE ON ITS OWN YET! I MAYLET IT GO LATER! I MAY NOT! If it dies i may get a domestic rabbit! IMAY USE THE ADVICE ON THIS SITE! I MAY NOT USE ALL OF IT!
 
Yes it is. At that age that it ventures out ofthe nest it is usually old enough. The mother stops caring for them ataround 4-5 weeks old. I know you don't want to get rid of it but youhave to have the rabbits best interests in mind.
 
I now know how to take care of the rabbit. Thecommunity here is great and I realize you have the bunnies bestinterests in mind but people do this succesfully all the time. I justwanted extra advice!
 
i would also say take it to a wildlife place orsomewhere they can take care of it...but if you can't do that/ dontwant to do thatthen maybe you could at least call them andask them for some advice?

if it live it lives if it dies it dies???!!!!! this is a living thing your talking about, not just some toy!!!!!!!!!!!:no:
 
i realize that and whole heartedly pray it lives
you dont understand the hours I have spent crying over it
if it gets sick i will DEFINITELY take it to my friend
if now i will keep it
they can be tamed easily and this one will be a good pet i think
it loves being handled after 2 days
and it has peed and pooped some yes
but guys please dont be mad at me for keeping it
 
Im the one that started the "if it lives, itlives, if it dies, it dies" most of my life i havebeen around animals, my grandmother used to have a kennel, and a sortof a farm , we had chickens, ducks, rabbits, cats, dogs.... thechickens, when they had eggs, we eat them, when we are low on money tofeed ourselves, we eat the chickens, we used to raise and sell rabbits,and sometimes if we have to.. we would eat the rabbit too... we used toraise dogs, sometimes the pups dies,

back during the parvo thing in the 80's, we lost half of our dogs, ourrabbits.. to parvo, we took some of the dogs to the vet to find outwhat wrong with them ... it was too late, so we cared for them as bestas we could at the time, and had those that didn't get sick vaccinated..

my grandmother accidently ran over a couple of kittens, they weredying, so she took slede hammer to them to put them out of mistry..

when i was little, i accidently killed a baby duck, i was running and accidently stepped on it, it died instantly..

when i was teenager, i accidently killed a pup.. i didn't closed thegate very well, and all the other dogs mobbed the pup... i don'tunderstand why they did that, even the pup mother mobbed the pup, thepup was 4 months old, my grandmother was very upset with me.. the pupdidn't die instantly, my grandmother put the pup in the box and made mewatch the pup while she was trying to find a place open... it was toolate by the time she find the place open

that is life, critters lives, critters dies..
but in the meantime, we try our best to care for them, and give them the best in life...

I can certainly understand that it is not always easy tofind a rehab person when you live in a very rural area. Thisbunny may live if you can get it to pee and poop. It won'tstand even that chance with the catoutside. I've always used evaporatedmilk, so I can't say what kind of results you will get with thecondensed. Have you got hay ... dried grass ... oreven straw that it will eat? Don't give it lettuce, and Iwould stay away from much of anything real wet for food, like yourcarrots, till you see if it is going to pee and poop. I wouldcontinue with the milk. Is it drinking any of the water outof the dish? If not, you could give itsome water with your dropper.

The survival rate of wild bunnies in a domestic situationmaynot be all that great, but it's even worse out in thewild.Thank you for trying tohelp a little critter.

I really have to agree with Dolores here. The average lifespan of a rabbit in the wild is 11 months atbest.More bunnies die in captivity thanlive, but it's the same in the wild.

I thinkthe domestic rabbit community always over-reacts whenthey hear about people taking in wild bunnies.Itsextremely important to return tiny babiesthat haven't openedtheir eyes to thenest, butonce their eyes are openand they're running around, their survival isa 50/50proposition. As long as somebody is willing to do theresearch and do the best they can, they should be commended for givingit atry even though they know it's far more likely than notto be a heartbreaker.But there's an equalchancethey'll beproviding that cat, orahawk or acoyote with dinner if they let it go atthis point.

Good luck with the little one, Palm. :pray::clover:And welcome to the world of bunny love. :inlove:



sas and the warren
 
Thanks pipp
You understand what I mean. I have studied for hours and hours andhours! i love rabbits and really hope this one lives. I found small(ant size) black things in the box
is this poo?
not sure about pea though it may have been absorbed by towel or maybe by the box itself
and i wipe its hind end with warm water and i also feed it milk still and gave it a little clover

it seems to be very happy and runs around and hops about a lot
i hope i dont lose him

Read over this site and have paitence........... after all the call aspecialist stuff it tells you how to care for the rabbit... goats milkor the kitten formula already mentioned but pls look at it and do yourbest. I know how you feel. Has your friend had any good info?
Well, I will let you get back to your reading and surf the web as well,maybe a local rehab site has good care info on it. Oh and it said themom only feeds them once at night and the reason most of the oneshumans try to rescue die is from over feeding or over heating so if youdo put a warm pad under it's box leave the other end of the box forhim/her to go to if it is too warm. good luck and keep us informed.
I have always heard not to touch wild bunnies unless you planto care for them, their mom will not come back if they have the humanscent on them. THis was yrs ago and could not find anythingfor you on it now, sorry


 
I think I should apoligize. It's just, somepeople only want a baby bunny because it's cute and something to lookafter. At first, I thought this was your goal but now my perspectivehas changed. Sorry for me getting a little T.O'd :D

How is she/he doing?
 
thanks spring
i am sorry for getting angry also
i am not (i sware and promise) a sterotypical "OOOH FUZZY BUNNY CAN I KEEP IT???" person.
I care very much and will do my best to care for this little animal.
Also I bought it some small yogurt treats for rabbits and it licks andnibbles them. And it is still drinkin milk and water and is veryplayful and active.
It has used the bathroom some also which I am so glad of! My cat is a bit angry at me right now but I dont care.

Called local pet shop and they said I should come in and get some hayso I might do that sometime soon. they also said theyre bunnies are forsale at 21.99
good price?


 
Its all fine guys! He just got fed and such and so he is doing good
anyone that wants to see him on webcam or pics pm me
