My cats brought a baby mole (I think) home tonight. It's probably not going to survive the night, but if it does, what next? It's wrapped in a sock on a heating pad. It's about the size of the end of your pinkie finger Help!

We were driving the go cart and we saw something. We went to look what it was and it was a baby mole. We got hay and a bucket and put him in it. We want so badly to keep it because we think our dog killed its mom. But our mom says we have to put it back because we don't know what it eats. Also, my mom says its a wild animal it won't survive. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

I just found a baby mole in the snow. I think it's a baby. It's so small not sure what they eat. It says bugs but it's snowing. I don't know where to find bugs or what else to feed it. We gave him/her some lettuce but it isn't showing interest. I really don't want it to die. Please respond ASAP!

I am pretty sure that moles eyes aren't open and that they just use their other senses to move around. Don't be scared about their eyes not being open, because they aren't supposed to be.

We just found a baby mole so we think. It was running to this fire that we made when my dad saw it but we don't know what to do with it. We want to keep it but we don't know any thing about it. So help.

uhmm I just found 7 baby moles and I don't know what to do I want them to survive and I don't live near a wildlife center.

Editor's Note: If possible, put them back where you found them so their mother can find them and take care of them.

OK, well I was in my yard and I was walking with my dog and it found a family of moles and my dog killed the mother and 5 other babies. I saved one and I've had it for one day. The eyes are not even opened yet I fed it kitten milk from the store. I don't know if that would help but what do I do?

Don't put the baby down the hole! The mother will reject it and kill it. Take it to a wildlife rescue organization. Most places will take any animal.

I just found a baby mole drowning in my pool! I hope it's ok. I hope my mom lets me keep it overnight. She was drying it off and it bit her, twice. I hope it survives, also. It's as big as my middle finger. It's eyes are opened. I hope someone can help me.

I got three baby moles right now. We found 'em in our front yard all alone. they're eyes ain't even open, but they seem to be doing OK. We're feeding them wet cat food mixed with milk, worms, and warm milk out of a hamster bottle. They're in a little hamster cage. Try to keep yours warm for the most part, and give it some grass to sleep on cuz that's what they make their nests out of.

Request: Caring for a Baby Mole

Archived on 04/24/2008

We have a baby mole and we need to know what baby moles eat. We need to know what to keep it in and at what temperature.

RE: Caring for a Baby Mole

Contact your nearest wildlife rehab organization. They'll be able to tell you how to care for the mole. Most rehab organizations are looking for volunteers, perhaps you could help? (03/12/2008)

I had a pet mole at one time and it ate me out of house and home. So be ready. Thats all they do is eat. They love worms. (03/12/2008)

RE: Caring for a Baby Mole

Worms and bugs. I do know they get in my parents' handmade stone flower boxes out beside their retaining walls, each year. They love all the nice handpicked flowers and vegetable plants my parents plant each year, hoping for some nice garden veggies. The moles make quick meals out of the the small plants. I'd say your best deal would be to let the baby mole down into the first hole you come to in your yard. I'm sure it's Mama will find it. (03/29/2008)
