Sorry it's blurry, it's the best I could do. Introducing you to Diggory, a baby Pipistrelle bat I found on my living room carpet one day and I have been hand rearing. Here he is about 11 days old, and drinking Whiskas Kitten Milk off the end of a paintbrush.

  • I checked your blog aswell :), very thorough and detailed account of your time spent caring for him.

    Was this in rural Manchester? or closer to the city center?.

  • I'd say it was city centre. There isn't much greenery around where I live (except a river a short way away) so I was pretty surprised to find I had resident bats. I've since gone bat spotting locally...they're all over the place (several different species). I feel a new hobby coming on...

  • Im so glad you kept it and fed it appropriately, You should apply for a handlers license, were you interested in Bat's before you found the Pipistrelle?.

  • Yep, I've already attended mammal identification and surveying courses and had my own bat detector. And believe me...after looking after the lil darlin' I was certainly tempted to make it a more regular occurence.

  • You're right. This guy should've probably thrown him out into the wild without any food, ability to fly, or mother. As opposed to here where he seems to be receiving the attention it deserves.

  • i rehab bats they need all the help they can get....keep up the good work

see all
