Rescued Baby Stoat

Two weeks ago we took in a baby stoat, he was found on a path with a small injury, you can just see the healed wound in this photo.

He was very young, had no fur and his eyes still closed, this photo was taken two weeks after the rescue.

Here he is now at 3 weeks old, we are feeding him about every two hours day and night and keeping him in an incubator and is so far doing well.

It is still early stages but we are hopeful as he is a little fighter and taking his milk well. Here he is sleeping soundly after a good feed.
