I heard a shrieking noise last night and checked outside to find 2 cats harassing a baby rabbit. I took him in and put him in a box with some water and carrots and called the spca but they told me to just let it go because it will die if put in the van to take to the rescue centre. I have some concerns about just letting it go since it's very small, about the size of a fist. It doesn't appear to be injured and it did munch on a bit of carrot so it looks like it's weaned. No visible injuries but it was very traumatised when I got to it. What do I do with it? It is a wild animal as I've seen the big brown rabbits occasionally sitting next to the road. Do I release it or is it too small to fend for itself? Any advice will be appreciated!
Thanks.
Thanks.
