We thought the fab 5 was headed to a colleague but that hasn't happened just yet, so we qre in need of some food stuffs! Some of this is for our kits in care, some for Romeo and peanut and some for our residents!

We are also due for our rodent pro order so would like to offset this.

Paypal or venmo, please!

"Let nature take its course."

I hate that saying.

Somehow we've convinced ourselves that watching an animal suffer is more "natural" than helping it.
If an animal is injured, sick, trapped, orphaned, or dying, why would we choose to let it endure days of pain, starvation, infection, or predation when there are people trained to help? That's what wildlife rehabilitators are for.

What's involved with "nature taking its course" is often not a peaceful death. It's days or even weeks of suffering. It's flies laying eggs in wounds. It's maggots consuming living tissue. It's untreated infections, dehydration, starvation, exposure, and animals becoming easy targets for predators. It's prolonged pain that most people never actually witness.

Not every animal can be saved. Sometimes the kindest outcome is humane euthanasia. Sometimes the kindest outcome is treatment, rehabilitation, and release. But allowing prolonged suffering simply because it happens in nature is neither compassionate nor respectful.

Nature is full of hardship. Animals die from disease, injuries, parasites, starvation, and exposure every day. The fact that suffering occurs naturally does not mean we should stand by and ignore it when help is available.
When people say, "Let nature take its course," what they're often really saying is, "I don't want to get involved."

I disagree.

If we have the ability to prevent unnecessary suffering, we should. Whether that means getting an animal to a licensed rehabilitator, reuniting babies with their mother, providing medical care, or making the difficult decision to humanely euthanize when recovery isn't possible.
No animal should suffer simply because helping requires effort.

If i believed in "letting nature take it's course" we wouldn't have Jax, visenya, or Roo, or any of the kits in care. Peanut would ne long gone and Maggie would have been eaten alive, and cupcake would have suffered overnight.

Compassion should never stop where convenience begins. ❤️🦊🦝🦉

Unfortunately our Maggie Girl is being hospitalized overnight. We are hoping with 24 hours on IV antibiotics she will improve.
