Help injured and orphaned wildlife get a second chance.
When fragile animals come in cold, hungry, or hurt, donations help cover formula, bedding, medicine, transport, and emergency vet care.
Make a gift that goes straight to animal care.
Small gifts add up fast when babies need round-the-clock feeding and injured animals need help today.
Real support turns stressful intake calls into calmer care.
Community support makes the practical work possible: safe warmth, steady feeding supplies, clean bedding, transport, medicine, and calm guidance when someone finds wildlife in trouble.
What your donation helps cover
Wildlife rehabilitation is practical work: feeding, cleaning, transporting, treating, and keeping fragile animals stable until they can return to the wild.
Formula & feeding
Tiny babies need frequent feeding, clean syringes, formula, gloves, and patience around the clock.
Warm bedding & habitats
Clean bedding, safe enclosures, towels, heat support, and habitat materials help animals stabilize.
Medicine & vet care
Medication, exams, and X-rays help injured animals get treatment instead of waiting.
Transport & intake
Rescue work means fuel, carriers, towels, calls, and long pickup days across nearby counties.
Recent intakes came from West Point, Mathews, Gloucester, and Barhamsville.
Recent calls brought in a baby raccoon from West Point, a baby skunk from Mathews, baby groundhogs from Mathews and Gloucester, and a baby fox from Barhamsville. Community help keeps animals cared for during the hardest weeks.
Help the next intakeHelp cover vet care when an animal needs more than rest.
Some intakes need X-rays, exams, medication, and clinic support right away. Donations to the vet-care fund help keep treatment moving when an animal cannot wait.
