Babies, Babies, Babies!! – Important Information

Babies, Babies, Babies!! It’s that time of year again where OOWR is full to capacity with baby animals so we will be TEMPORARILY CLOSED until we have room to take in more animals. (But we will be back soon!)

In the meantime, you can find other rehabilitators by visiting the Ohio Wildlife Rehabilitators website at: http://owra.org/. If the animal is sick or injured, seek out help from Metropolitan Vet Hosptial (free) 330-666-2976 www.metropolitanvet.com

REMINDER:

The warmth for baby wildlife, especially those that have not opened their eyes, can be a matter of life and death. Keeping the baby warm until you can get it to a rehabilitator is critical. One way to do this is to wrap a bottle of hot tap water in a towel or other material and set it in with the babies. DO NOT USE ANYTHING THAT HAS FRINGE as it has a way of wrapping around the legs and the torsos of the animals.

For more rescue information visit the OOWR website here.
