It was brought to our attention about a baby deer posted on Facebook by someone saw the post.

We checked on it and planned to leave it however after checking it out,we realized it has blood on its rear and maggots coming out it's rear end.

We contacted wildlife and they suggested keeping it overnight for safety as it's mom will not come back for it. A wildlife center Monday will be meeting us to get it first thing in the morning.

We're cleaning it up best we can with warm water and trying to keep it comfortable best we can for the night along in bottle feeding it.

We will update more monday when we can

‼️It's not the update we wanted.
Talking with Erica a rehabber she gave us helpful information to try to get baby through the night. We did everything,I mean EVERYTHING we could for this baby.

Sadly it passed away this morning as we were getting ready to transport it to Erica, 😢
After talking with Erica,she felt that it's body was pumping adrenaline to keep itself going considering where it was found and that this baby had most likely been maggot infested for awhile it just took awhile for them(maggots) to make their way to the exit by most likely eating through the fawns bowels this would explain all the blood we came across along with the many many maggots exiting that area. Given that the fawn was getting weaker once we found it and took it,it felt safe enough to relax which then made the fawns body stop the adrenaline and from there that explains why it went downhill so fast in loosing it's body temp etc......We did everything we could to help it but it was just too sick to continue it's fight. 😢

Does anyone have styrofoam coolers they want to get rid of that we can use to make a few more cat shelters for the winter?

Our Story

We are under a new president and have new members joining us to help us continue our mission for our rescue. We rescue animals in need that may need help with medical needs and require a vet and once healthy enough we adopt them out. We will take animals of all kinds from hamsters,rabbits,guinea pigs even reptiles. We do take in cats and dogs,which we find ourselves mostly taking in cats right now but we do on occasion get a dog to adopt out. We have a future goal in mind which is get a building so that donations can be droped off as well as a place to house animals we take in. Right now we currently use foster based homes to help care for our animals we take in. Certain people only want to foster a dog while others will foster both dogs and cats and some prefer the odd end animals like the reptiles or smaller animals as mentioned. Each foster cares for the animal like it is there own while we do the rest for them from making vet care appointments,to adoption events. Foster care os import so that the animal isnt kept in a cage all the time like they would be in a shelter. Once we get a building we will be able to have people come in and see the animals to adopt and even sign up to help clean cages and maybe walk a dog or play with one. If interested in joining us fill out a member or foster application online and send it to us.
