QuestionI rescued 2 baby wild mice. their eyes are not open yet but they have some fur. What "milk" can I give them and how?
AnswerDear Llona,
Baby mice should be nursed with kitten milk replacement. You can use an eyedropper or a small paintbrush. After feeding, you should very gently rub their abdomens with a Q-tip to help the eliminate. Feed them every 2-3 hours around the clock. Their mom feeds them every half hour.
It's hard to replace a mommy mouse, so don't blame yourself if it doesn't work out. Thank you for rescuing them.
