let it go back into the wild it could be inffected with rabies and god only knows what else its not a good idea at all to keep a wild bat

Tried several times to release it, but with a torn wing membrane it isn't working out. Somehow my cats keep finding it and bringing it back.

OR you could find a local bat specialist of some type, if there's anything like that in your area :3 it'd probably be better to consult professionals to take the baby and bring it back to health rather than do it yourself, since it's a bit complicated and might be costly to attempt to do it yourself.

(p.s. don't handle it barehanded is the best advice i've seen when looking stuff up)

Tried to find a specialist, phoned the only rescue center in my area and they din't answer my calls nor my emails. I also don't think he is a baby, fully grown from what i have read up.

Been using surgical gloves to handle him and I use a cloth to make a barrier bwtween his teeth and my flesh

He's a cutie :) Maybe he was dehydrated, give him a bowl of water and then maybe set him outside?

But if he's the same batty that was almost kitty snack.. I'd visit batworld.org and give them a call for advice.

More pictures of cute batty :D

First thing. i would figure out which species it is. Looking around, there seems to be around 50 different species of bat in south africa.
This way you will have a good indication as to it's diet and such. Second, i would minimize contact with it unless you are wearing gloves. It very well could have been sick, which maybe why your cat caught it.

here is a interest group for south african bats. They even have some contact information in the section of the page that deals with finding injured bats.

*hugs*
i wish you and your cute little friend the best of luck.

Batworld.org can help you out :)
