I just found that the little guy didn't make it through the night.
******************
I was downstairs in my basement, which is finished, but really not used much, changing the water in the cat fountain and checking their food when I spotted a tiny little bunny. I know nothing about bunnies, but I think this could be a pet. My daughter-in-law put on a glove and picked it up and we put it in a cardboard box. My daughter brought over a kennel and bought a water bottle and some food. We put a towel on the floor of the kennel, and then put in a shoebox with a hole cut in it so the little guy (or girl) could have a place to hide. Then I put the whole thing in a room that the cats can't get into.
I just don't know if this little guy just came in the cat door or if one of the cats brought him in. He's pretty small. He kind of looks like a dwarf bunny. If he came in on his own, he probably fell. I have cat trees by the windows, but it doesn't seem like a bunny could just hop down off of them. I don't know if he's hurt. He moves around, but not very quickly. Maybe he's in shock, or just scared. Honestly, I don't even really know how bunnies are supposed to act.
I sure hope we find his home tomorrow, if he actually has a home. I really don't think I can keep a bunny. I've got the four cats, and they're all hunters.
If anyone can give me good advice, I'd appreciate it.
