It is baby bird season!

We get quite a few calls during baby bird season as the consistency with which members of the public interact with baby birds increases. To help, we put together this very simplified guide with some basic steps.

The most important things to remember when interacting with baby birds are:
- Use a licensed rehabilitator as a resource! If you are unsure what do do, it is always best to speak with a professional to get some advice.
- It is a myth that birds will not care for their young if handled by humans. Birds will still care for young that are handled and returned to nests!
- Fledgling birds naturally spend time out of the nest on the ground and mom and dad will still help care for them. It is best to just keep your distance from fledglings and give them the time they need to gain flight coordination and strength.
- Do not attempt to feed baby birds! Improper feeding and improper food can cause a host of issues for baby birds.

If you find an injured or orphaned animal after hours and are unable to reach our team during our operational hours 9-5 daily, keep animals in a ventilated, enclosed carrier and keep them in a dark, quiet space. Reduce your contact with animals as this can cause additional stress. Leave a message with our hotline and if they are an animal we accept at our facility, bring them to us for care when we reopen.

Thank you to all brave rescuers out there!

It is turtle crossing season! It is important to stay vigilant while driving this time of year as turtles increasingly require crossing busy roadways to reach ancestral breeding and nesting sites.

There are some very simple things to you can do to help turtles crossing roadways and we have listed just a few of the basics here!

Whenever it is safe to do so, we encourage assisting turtles found in roadways by either moving them in the direction in which they were headed or transporting them to a licensed rehabilitation facility should they be hit by cars.

Thank you to all you turtle crossing heroes out there! Show us your best turtle crossing photos from this season in the comments and do not forget to use our Wildlife Emergency Hotline as a resource (207-361-1400).

There is a definite difference between FIV+ cats & FeLV+ cats.

FIV is Feline Immunodeficiency Virus
&
FeLV is Feline Leukemia.

I have never had FeLV cats at my house.
If I had, they would be totally separate from other cats,
** as FeLV can be spread from cat saliva during grooming, sharing of food & water dishes, or any saliva contact sharing activities.
** FIV may weaken a cat’s immune system. If a cat gets ill
from something, an FIV+ cat may have a harder time fighting off an illness or wound. & stomatitis (of the mouth/gums —- look up stomatitis in cats),, is another tragic & varying degrees of severity, IF FIV+ presents with stomatitis symptoms.

A heads up🌸
In almost 2 months on Mon 11/6/23, I will be having a total right knee replacement. I have bone on bone osteo-arthritis & shredded meniscus, that has progressed along the past 10 yrs.
I will be unavailable (most likely)for the months of Nov & Dec 2023.
I will have to see how I’m doing!
Feel free to check in with me re cat care visit requests that are for after mid Dec.
Our friend/pet sitter, Molly, who stays at our house when we go away, is covering cat care requests for me during my recovery time.
You can text or call Molly’s cell 603-944-1515 to request cat care, probably at least for the 1st 6 wks of my recovery = up til mid Dec. She will most likely want to meet with you before doing any visits. If I hold your keys, she can use the ones I have if that is easier.
I AM available up until Sat 11/4 though😁 if you want to send me any cat care requests up til then.

🐾Thank you🐾
