Not a new pet, just visiting
I was brought this little fellow yesterday by a friend, their cat had brought two inside to them, sadly one passed away several hours afterwards, possible due to infection,
I know he is not out of the woods yet, but I will try my best by him, over the years I have hand reared numerous birds & animals, but this little sparrow is the smallest yet, I have called him Jack, then I suppose if he is a girl, I can call her Jackie, I will release him as soon as he can be independent, my garden is quite the haven and still have wildlife from previous years, who have stayed around for food and protection

That's a shame 
But young chicks are very frail and sometimes they just don't make it
