Duscha

Mom thought I should write about this...

Yesterday morning mom found a little baby bunny, she went to check on it later in the day to make sure it was still okay and she found 2 dead ones and 2 live ones (1 of them was the bunnie from earlier in the day). Since the bunnies are old enough to live on their own, when wild baby bunnies aren't old enough to live on their own the have a white blaze on their forehead, that is how mommy knew. Mom decided to take the two live ones and put them in a box with water and different grass and stuff from in the yard. These babies both looked like runts of the litter, they fit in mommas hand. The one didn't make it through the night, momma didn't think he would make it he wasn't very active.

Here are two pictures of them from yesterday.

Both of them together the one that is kinda stretched out is the one that is still alive.

Another picture of the survivor.

Mom named the survivor Duscha, it means divine spirit. She thinks that Duscha will make it. Mom wants to hold onto her till she gets a bit bigger and is more capable of getting away from predators. Luckily wild bunnies never really become tame and revert back to their wild selves when they are released. Mom has been letting her lick kitten formula off her fingers, Duscha seems to like it but also eats the grass and is pottying by herself.

Pictures from today. In the last picture Duscha was falling asleep in moms lap.

Hopefully Duscha will make it to adulthood, mom read that up to 95% of bunnies don't make it to 6 months old. :(
