Attention: After an incredibly busy spring, LRWR is struggling to keep up with community demand.. While we’d like to help every rascal, proper care of our current animals is top priority. As a result, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to temporarily limit intakes to a case by case basis.

Our rescue relies on donations for operation, but this revenue doesn’t cover salaries for volunteers on staff. Most of us have full-time positions and choose to dedicate our free time to helping animals in need. As baby season slows down and we’re able to release some of our critters we hope to be able to return to normal intake procedure soon.

Until then, please continue notifying local rescues when you find an animal requiring assistance. Even if we’re at capacity we always try our best to provide alternate resources! We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we rehabilitate as many little rascals as possible.

Please consider looking at our wishlist. We have taken in more animals this year than ever before. We are so proud to be able to support our native wildlife, but it comes with large costs.

There are some cheap items such as paper towels, baby wipes, p*e pads that we are running low on.

There are larger items / higher price items that are needed to be able to take in more animals such as caging, Capstar for triage, and dog houses for “dens” as I don’t have the time to build them right now.

Update post! Things are moving fast for many of our little rascals. Here’s what they’ve been up to:

(Pics 1&2) Baby opossums are doing well and gaining weight. They’ve grown from 60grams at intake to a whopping 95 today! Oppies are now big enough to graduate from tube feeding and have begun lapping on their own.

(Pic 3) Kiki, the emaciated baby raccoon, is progressing rapidly and will be ready to join her littermates in the indoor enclosure next week!

(Videos 4&5) Our outdoor gang is well on their way to learning to be wild! The babies hiding in video 5 are doing exactly what they should, becoming indifferent to their human handlers. While it’s always a sad time for us, we know a bit of fear towards humans will help keep them safe once they’re released.

(Pic 6 & video 7) Our newest rascals, a raccoon litter admitted from Kent County last week, are beginning to stabilize. After a rough start they were lucky enough to be adopted by, Momma Mia, a current intake raccoon who came to us in critical condition herself.. and as you can see in video 7 she takes the role very seriously! Here she’s trying to protect her new babies. Since intake, the little ones have been able to gain some weight and energy. We expect Momma Mia will be ushering them into full chaos stage very soon!

(Pic 8-**warning semi-graphic before pic & video 9-after) Chewie, our raccoon who was admitted after being struck by a car, is recovering as expected. With his injuries healing and vision improving, we’re hopeful he’ll meet the criteria for release at his vet appointment this week!

Stay tuned to see how the rest of our little rascals journey back to the wild unfolds.

Interested in helping our native wildlife, but don’t have the space or ability to rehab?

Little rascals wildlife rescue has the perfect opportunity for you! We are currently looking for experienced board members for our non profit organization.

Skills we are searching for: record keeping, fundraising experience, donor management.

We are also looking for someone with some time on their hands to handle calls while I’m at work. Training will be provided.

If any of this interests you, please reach out! (Feel free to share).

Alfalfa: Why am I soaking wet?
Porky: Don’t worry, Alfalfa. I used to have the same problem…

As the original little rascals so compassionately taught us, we’re all a work in progress. No one is perfect (besides in our slightly subjective opinion, Quagmire-the less than fully litter box trained raccoon in question). He clearly has the right idea, hasn’t quite mastered ex*****on. So let’s take a moment to cheer him on; as he learns, grows and progresses through the rehabilitation process back to the wild. You got this, Quagmire!!

**LRWR relies on donations for our continued operation. Right now we’re in need of Capstar and dog food! If you’re able to give to our cause please check out our wishlist or follow the links in our bio.

"OH look, he's just like me when I'm hangry"

Cue the munches 😆

A little update regarding the Kent County little ones....most of them have moved to outdoor enclosures!!! They’re working on their wildlife skills and forging skills before release back into the wild!
