EMERGENCY!!! BABY RABBIT HURT!!?

Question

A baby rabbit, so young it's eyes are not even opened, got run over by the lawn mower. It is breathing heavily and bleeding at a minor cut, and it's fur has been taken off at her back. I took a dropper and she drank a bit of water. I also put a blanket down in the hutch we have and set her in there. My dad said I may try to nurse her back to health, but it's unlikely she'll live, and he is not paying any vet bills! So, can someone tell me what I should do to help it, like, what food it should eat? And just so you really know.. SHE IS REALLY REALLY YOUNG! Eyes aren't even open. And yes, she can walk.

Answer 7

There's a rabbit that just appeared in our yard, so I looked up on the internet if I should take care of it, and how.  It says that baby rabbits should be left where you find them because they can't get along without mom, no matter what the vet does.  And right this minute, his mom is probably out there frantically looking for him.  Put him back and check in a few hours to see if he's gone.  She should come and get him.  If he can't make it, that's what happens to wild animals.  Sorry.  

Answer 8

i'd say baby formula. keep it warm. clean the cut. and pray.

and really, the bunny needs a vet...

Answer 9

Poor little baby rabbit.

Here's what I would do:

Wash the cut

Put a cloth over it

take it to the doctor

Answer 10

Go to the vet right away!! If not the vet there should be an animal rescue like a nature preserve around that can help you out too

Answer 11

Go to the vet now it could die.

go there it has a lot of good information.

Answer 12

By the sounds of it's conditions, it will pass away in the next couple of hours. There isn't anything you can do. The best thing to do is get it to a wildlife center, they'll put it out of it's misery or if I'm wrong they have experts who will nurse it back to help. Even healthy baby rabbits rarely survive even in the hands of experts.

Answer 13

Go online and find a wildlife rehabilitator in your area.  They won't charge you anything to take the bunny.  Until you do keep the baby on a heating pad wrapped in a towel, they must be kept very warm or will die from hypothermia.  Keep the area clean with water and soap.

Answer 14

GO TO THE VET!! AND Y THE **** DID U RUN OVER A BABY RABBIT??

Answer 15

If you cannot pay the vet bills, you should not take care of the rabbit. You should find someone to take care of the rabbit. You want to nurse it, but if it is likely to die, you should find someone who can pay the bill & take care of it as soon as possible. You can save its life!!

Answer 16

Use and antiseptic like iodine on the cut and abrasions. Go to a pet show or library and look for a book on rabbits. Young rabbits eat milk for the beginning of their life. Put in in a box, in a blanket (hand towel) to keep it warm and keep on touching it frequently.

Answer 17

Clean up the cut for a start, keep giving her water and phone the vet and ask them what to do!

Answer 18

Vet! Vet! Vet! Nothing can be solved by computers! Good luck, let me know how things pan out, poor little bunny

Answer 19

OMG! Clean the cuts. Do not use poroxide. Just soap and water. Put her on a heating pad, and put some horse hay(NOT PELLETS!!) in there or her. and a bowl of water. But make sure to give it water every hour or 2 from an eye dropper. I really hope it lives!

Keep her in a cage, and keep checking on her!

You might noy need to go to vet.

But do everything I said and she sould be fine.

I hope everything work out! Poor baby!

Answer 20

GET OFF THE COMPUTER AND GO TO THE VET!
