Feed them Ensure (human dietary supplement) vanilla, once every few hours. Puppy/kitten milk replacer will also work. Keep them warm, body temperature is best (as in, keep them with you, in your pocket or hand). Stimulate their bowels after feeding by wiping their rear ends with a warm, moistened cotton ball.

:I need to get some Help on this fast! We have been trying to catch a mouse in the pantry that had escaped and it wound up that my roomate got the mom in a mouse trap... I had refused to have them trapped like that since its inhumane but he did it without me knowing.... well now it turns out that the mom had 4 babies* I don't want to take them to a local petstore because all they would do is feed them to a snake- I have had a mouse as a pet before and I wouldnt mind raising these if I can make sure they are healthy as infants... Right now their eyes are closed but they have a lots of hair on them they are about 1 1/2 inches long! PLEASE if you know of anything that could help (feeding and such) leave me a message on here! THANK YOU!
