    Separation Anxiety

    The baby mouse I've been bottle feeding opened her eyes yesterday and now she hates to be alone. Whenever I set her in her cage she squeaks frantically until I let her crawl on my hand again. She suckles on my fingers and then falls right asleep.

    Re: Separation Anxiety

    I bottle fed a rat, they sell bottles for it at Petsmart and we used thinned goat's milk. I've bottle fed baby rabbits too.

    As to the separation anxiety you're just going to have to stay there and comfort that mouse 24/7. Your other responsibilities will just have to wait.

    You could also use eye droppers, or an empty food couloring bottle.
