you need to put it back were you found it, it IS illegal to keep wild rabbits as pets! if you are unwilling to put it back, then call your local wildlife and game commission.





don't ever feed a rabbit ANYTHING that you haven't researched to be safe for it, some foods that are safe for humans and other animal can be poisonous to bunnies,


http://rabbit.org/


they have tons of info on PROPER rabbit care.





but the best thing to do would be to find it's burrow, and place it back in there so that it's mother may take proper care of the little guy!





and lastly ALL cats should be indoor pets, otherwise they'll continue to destroy our delicate ecosystem, if you would've kept your cat inside like you are supposed to this situation would not have happened, pet ownership is a big responsibility.
i used to work at a wild life refuge and baby bunnies are the hardest to keep alive. if it's real small it may still need to be bottle fed. i think they used kitten milk or something like that, and you need to do it every few hours. if it will eat solid food you may be ok. baby bunnies stress very easily and when they stress they die. contact a wild life refuge in your area and see if they can help
If the rabbit is that small, he is probably still nursing. See if there is a humane society that could take care of him, cause you don't have the proper nutrients that the little guy needs to have a chance of living.
if he wont eat the carets causes hes really small he might eat cat food but if the rabbit is rele tiny and just a baby the soke the cat food in warm water for like 5 mins he might eat that.
There is bunny food at food lion..I use to have a bunny..They also love oats..
pretty much any veggie and i used to feed my bunnie rose petals which they absolutely LOVED! have fun.=D
My rabbit eats carrot, little, grapes and apples. They also can eat bananas.
you could feed it more milk and when it gets older by it some rabbit chow.
BUY SOME RABBIT FOOD!

lettuce carrots basically any left of vegetable
contact the humane society they will know what to do
