Should I keep the shrew, yes or no?
Hello, today I found a dead shrew family, and there was still a small baby left, so I took it home and fed it with cat milk and kept it warm. She's doing brilliantly well, but I googled it, and it says that shrews carry a transmissible and deadly virus. Of course, that scared me, and now I don't know if I should keep her, because without me, she'll die alone in the wild, but if I keep her, I might get a deadly virus. Does anyone know more about shrews? Please reply, thanks.
You probably wouldn’t have to eat or pick the mouse raw, would you? Then just use disposable gloves to supply or wash your fins, ready.
I’ve already touched dozens of different kinds of mice (forest mouses, robes, house mouses and ever-in-law mouses) because you have dragged Kater. So far absolutely followless for my health.
“I’ve touched dozens of different kinds of mice.”
Did you wear good gloves, or were you just not afraid they were eating?
When my cat drags a mouse and I save her, I look very dirty when I try to shove her with a stick in a bowl.
Since then I had a bat (I thought she was dead in the rainbow) and then bite a nicking mouse into my fingers I wear the thick fireplace gloves to get the biesters out.
Only if they are already completely or largely I do it and wash your hands afterwards.
Turn to the local animal welfare association, which will give you any desired information and a bunch of tips!
It would have to bite you first, and then it’s not sure that this baby has the virus (which one?)
I wouldn’t go crazy and take him up and let him free after 1 week
