Do not feed it cow or goat's milk. Get some KMR (kitten milk replacer) from a pet store or vet and use a syringe to feed him. Feed only once a day. It's a very difficult job to undertake. IF you are up to it, visit this page and there are great details on how much milk and what to do depending on the age of the kit.

But it would probably best if you found a wildlife rehab place or someone experienced in rabbits to do it since they do require some exacting care.

Look in the internet, or a yellow pages for some good wildlife sanctuaries that may give you advice too. I'm sure there are going to be a lot of good answers here, but I would check that avenue too.

Call a veterinarian and be VERY careful with little bunny. We thought we were helping a baby bunny once by using human medicine on a cut he had, and (sadly) it killed him.

You're reading I recently rescued a baby bunny, and he has been in my house for a day now. He wont drink anything, and i have reason to believe that he is dehydrated. Iknow baby bunnies drink goat milk, and not cow milk, but he wont drink! What should i do?
