How to care for a baby rabbit?

Lindsey K asked:


My parents found an abandoned baby rabbit. Part of one of its ears is missing, but the injury has healed. The rabbit’s eyes are open and it hops around, but it’s very small and they can’t get it to eat or drink. They tried feeding it grass and lettuce. They can’t afford to take it to the vet, but obviously want to take care of it and make sure it lives. So what should they do to take care of it? What will it eat or drink? Please help!
Thanks for your concern, but they are going to keep it. I am asking what to do for this bunny, that does not involve them getting rid of it. How can they take care of it at home?

    The rest of survival is different than domestics and they visit them only once or twice day to feed baby rabbit and will likely kill it httpwwwgeocitiescomfourlittlebunnies httpwwwrabbitorgfaqsectionsorphanhtml.
