Feeding the baby rats.

So my dad found six baby rats in a plastic bag outside of our house that had been abandoned by their mom. Since they weren't opening their eyes yet, we brought them inside and took care of them overnight until we were able to take them to a wild life center the next day. As the title suggests, here's me feeding them....jixer, stitch, sleepy, dopey, cyclops and wolverine. XD

@MysterLool last one. lol Also, very important: do not let him bite you. If he bites you before you have had him checked by a vet, go to a doctor as soon as possible. Thats about it. Hope that helps!!!

@MysterLool Oh, and they eat every four-to-six hours, but I would recommend every four. Better that he get fat than starve. Next, you could check online to find the nearest wildlife center to your house and call them ahead to make sure they take rodents. Unless of course you want to keep him...in that case, just take him to a vet when he's a little more active. But be prepared for the worst case scenario that he may have rabies and they may want to put him down :(

@MysterLool

Hi :D first thing you want to do is find a small cardboard box or container for him and put an old shirt or something soft at the bottom. Then, put him somewhere he won't become dog chow. lol Next, you could buy some similac infant formula and a water dropper to feed him with. The milk should be warm when you feed him, so if you're using it out of the fridge, warm it up in a cup a little bit first. If you're using it off the shelf, it should be warm enough. -

what formula did you give it?

[isayyo305]

@suiteangel45 similac infant formula. They loved it too XD

why would you want to feed and nurse these freakin rodents? they get into your food supply and spread diseases, buy a snake and feed them to it.

You guys are so nice. :D
