My neighbor's dog dug up a rabbits burrow and there were three baby bunnies the neighbors are doing construc-

tion and won't let me put them back until they're finished. How can i take care of them until then. How can i get them to drink water. They are only the size of hamsters. Please help.
Answers:
be sure to get them POTATOES, CELERY, ONIONS, CARROTS, and GARLIC.throw the babies in a pot, add water, vegetables.and cook for 2hrs. Season with salt and pepper. YUM YUM
They will need to go to the vet- you can't put them back after construction, because the mother won't take them back.

I'd call the vet and see if they can take care of them until they are old enough to be sold.

good luck :)
Don't get too attach to them. In reality, They are not going to make it.
take the bunnis 2 the vet and tell them what s happening! if there wild they will proberly relese em if not then they will sell em or put em up 4 give aways.
Sounds like you've already touched the bunnies. Sorry to say wild rabbits will reject their young once they have been touched or handled by human beings. Your only option now is to plan on feeding them with an eyedropper (water and milk) until they can eat grass and clover which you will have to provide them. Do not introduce the greens until their eyes have been open for about two weeks. Do not be hurt or suprised if the bunnies do not survive. You will be doing your best. Also, remember to keep the bunnies warm.
go to the vet and get a baby bottle for kittens,and kitten formula. I raised 3 baby squirrels like that. they will probably tell you they wont live but if you feed them every 3 to4 hours, they will .there milk has to be refrigerated, but warmed a little above room temp.it will take alot of practice till you teach them to eat but don't give up. you can do this.
hello :) ive been raising baby abandoned bunnies all my life. you need to get a stick syringe. i get mine from the pharmacy for a quarter each. then get a can of kitten formula. i get mine at petco. i cant tell how old they are with no picture but if there tiny, start off with 1 to 1 and 1/2 ml kitten formula for each bunny. at least every 4 hours. you can go 6 hours at night but there going to be hungry little guys in the morning. its really cute when they do the kitten pushing thing with there paws. you wont be able to return the babies. your scent is covered in them. you will have to raise them for at least minimal 6 weeks. you can start watering down formula and weaning them at 5 weeks. they open there eyes at around 14 days so this can help you figure out there age.start offering a little alfalfa and little bunny pellets at 2 and 1/2 - 3 weeks old. (you can find all of this at petco if you have one around you.) they will nibble. at 4 weeks i offer bunny pop corn treats from petco. they will kick in there natural instinct and start not wanting you to pet them or hold them. this is good when that happens , it means you will be able to let them go when they are big enough. keep them in an isolated room if possible. the less noise from people the better. only hold them for feedings. helps keep them wild. hope i could help :) christine

This site has a lot a helpful info. My family and I cared for 4 baby skunks for awhile, and I just researched online, called the shelter, and called the wildlife rescue place on my town.
You can call your local Wildlife Rescues and they will take care of them. If you put them back the mother may never return now.
The mother may not accept them after being with you for so long. You need to call your local shelter and ask them who they use for wildlife rehab.
