this morning waiting at the bus stop,i noticed on the other side of our wall what appeared to be an empty margerine tub with just a bit of grass. kids playing i thought so i emptied this tub only to see four tiny pink bodies tumble out onto the grass
sadly three were already dead
but one of them was still alive and wriggling about on the grass,omg i had to do something. i was going into town anyway so i called into the vets there and they recommended condensed milk and warm water and they gave me two syringes.
i've since done a search on baby mice and puppy/kitten milk was suggested also and to use an eye dropper instead of sryinge as it would be easier,one post said every two hours another said four
he/she is now snuggled up in a box in my kitchen,he's had three feeds this afternoon and i'm hoping he can hold out until i get home. he was really cold dispite the hot weather.
i've christened him mickey,wish us both luck that he'll make it through the night.
no tsure if i can do the night feeds i'll have to see. i'm sure he's more than a week old as he has some fur on his back and tail but his eyes arent open yet
