A young bunny is in a cardboard box with grass and a paper towel in my room, partly covered by a shirt. I did a quick examination (I didn't want to handle it too long) and I only saw one injury, near its tail.
I don't think it's bleeding anywhere, or if it is, it's not bleeding badly.
I'm pretty sure it's in shock, but it has moved since I managed to get it away from my cat.
I have not fed it yet, because it may be too cold still, but I don't have a formula recipe. Isn't it:
2 egg whites
1 can of evaporated (or condensed?) milk
1 cup of milk
1 tablespoon of Kairo
?
If that's not right, if someone could give me the recipe or a URL to a helpful site, I'd be very much obliged.

Call your local vets and humane society for the number of a wildlife rescue org. It's really hard to raise wild animals successfully.

This was the answer on House Rabbit Society's Website:
What If the Baby Bunny Is Injured?
Either call or take him to your local humane society or animal shelter/animal control. Call first as often they will come pick up the baby. If they don't have a wildlife center, they will refer you. If after hours, contact a local emergency rabbit vet or Rabbit Veterinarian.
The best thing you can do for an injured wild baby bunny is to get in touch with a skilled rehabilitator.
Great info on local rehabilitators can be found at The Wildlife Rehabilitation Information Directory
Hope that helps!

If it is old enough to be out hopping around, it is weaned from its mother and on its own. Bring it some grass and dandelion leaves, not milk, and keep it quiet for a day or so. If it seems OK after that, it'll probably be all right and can be let go. Rabbits are prey animals and not designed to withstand major trauma to their bodies.

You may also want to check and see it you have a wildlife rehabber in your area. The bunny could have internal injuries and an infection.
It would be safer for wildlife (and your cat )if your cat didn't roam outside. Your neighbors would probably appreciate it too...
Good Luck.

Well what you can do is get someone to take you and the rabbit to the vet and then the vet can check him/her and then hell tell you what wrong
