Baby rabbit in cat's den!

[Catherine]

Cats have a strong mothering instinct. They just sometimes randomly pick up something and treat it like a kitten. At least this was a baby. I have never heard of a cat bringing home live food for later. It seems very much an un-catlike action.  It des seem very much like a cat to pick up a baby and carry it home. She probably would have tried to mother it somehow. I wonder how long it was there before you found it?

If it couldn't find its own mother I am sure other rabbits would take it in. There must have been a number of rabbit dens around the area. There would still be food around. We will hope for the best.
