Our Dumpster girl gained her freedom and a restart to her life in Nature!! Huge thank you to her rescuers for keeping her shaded and hydrated until we got there to help her!!
The Stinkers are starting to shy away and avoid us at feeding time which is awesome and sad all at the same time..their enclosure is surrounded by visual barriers to limit their comfort with us coming and going as we do daily chores.
Skunk fact: We have to feed them enough food for them to get full but not enough for them to have left overs. Skunks love to eat and in a rehab setting can become obese very quickly.

⚠️PSA None of our WILDLIFE (RVS/Non-RVS animals) leave the facility(we no longer have educational NRs) or interact with anyone unless it is our vet staff or licensed rehabilitators. They are not viewed by the public at anytime and are not taken to another facilities for any reason. These FIVE are orphaned wildlife who are in the process of rehabilitation to be released at a release site within their county of intake.⚠️
The Baby Bandits moved to their Pre Pre-Release enclosure and enjoyed some frozen fruit treats!!

Happy Wednesday one of our baby opies would like to remind you to get your steps in today!!
Martee had a puppy pad party in his limited mobility cage while we were cleaning cages last night(he missed the memo of limited mobility) we had to wait for him to get done playing before we could put his house and fresh blankets back in...martee had to come back into the wilding hut due to an injury to his gimpy leg so we could medicate the injured spot. Once he's healed he will go back out into the outdoor enclosure with the rest of the squirrels.
⚠️PSA we use these limited mobility cages bc its nearly impossible to catch a squirrel in our big 8 ft tall outdoor enclosure multiple times a day to provide medical care...it can be quite the workout for us and causes unnecessary stress for the squirrels⚠️
When you should be cleaning but the squirrel antics are to entertaining!!
⚠️PSA...The black specs in the straw are sunflower seed shells and thistle seeds not poops⚠️
Enjoy a Wildling Feeding Frenzy...Jelly Bean is growing he's getting his beard, whiskers andfur on his back/tail....He's eating 2 ccs like a champ...he gets some dry skin so we give him a coconut oil massage after every feeding...Martee is growing and gets big mad when he has to eat his food slowly. He is on dexamethasone injections twice a day for inflammation and will be seeing our vet Friday so we can look at his leg and get a care plan set up...Thank you to both of these guys rescuerers, followers and supporters.
PB slubbing his clean puppy pads...opies slub when they like the scent of something, to mark something as there's or because they like the feel of the texture.
