Are you a part of a scout group?
Do you know anyone with a good heart that works in construction?
Is your church group, coworkers, or civic organization looking to volunteer time?
Are you or someone you know have access to building materials that can be donated?

We need volunteers with experience to build!

Hahahaha

Contemplating life with strawberries......

THERE'S A BETTER WAY!!

Raccoons and other wildlife can be a nuisance.
Their habitats and homes are being destroyed by the tens of thousands of acres daily!
They're only a nuisance because we've made them so.
If you need to get rid of them use light, sound, gentle hazing, or scent deterrents.
Never EVER sgoot them just because their on your property! Don't be a dick!
This helpless juvenile was shot in his abdomen and his rear leg. The leg was shattered.
He made his way through a doggie door and good himself in a linen closet. It was almost like he was asking for help.
The home owners feed him and got him straight to us, but the damage was too great. He was helped along his final journey at less than a year old.
Shame on you! There's no excuse for this, ever!

Do better humans, do better!

Warning, sensitive post!

This is in no way meant to shame or blame anyone. As a matter of fact, I respect anyone who has the heart to help an animal in need. On the contrary, this post is meant to educate in order to save lives.
This precious little girl was rescued by a well meaning, kind lady. She loved her, bathed and fed her for several days until she found us.
Sadly she wasn't aware of one of the most important unknown facts about feeding baby skunks.
They are glutinous little beings who aspirate very easily and can drown or get pneumonia from aspiration.
That's exactly what happened as she feed her her last meal on the way to us.
Her little lungs were full of formula and she couldn't get oxygen from her lungs to her brain and viral organs.
I had to send her on her final journey. It was heartbreaking for us both.
I urge you to find professional help when you can. If no one is available ask every question, do your research, task to professionals, and NEVER fully trust the internet.
God bless this finder for trying, but please seek help from the very beginning.

Thank you for sharing!
