я на кончик пальца ложу кусок пищи и даю птенцу, он захватывает палец вместе с хавкой, с пинцетом долго игратся

I am in Toulouse, France and my aunt's cat brought her home a baby swift. It had a crooked tail so we're thinking maybe the mother threw it out of the nest? We'd been taking care of him for about 2 months and he was healthy and would hop around trying to fly but couldn't. We'd take him to the park and were all in love with the new member of the family. Two days ago he died. He woke up with diarrhea and while we got ready to take him to the vet he died in my hand. What happened? Were so sad.
