Dear friends,

OOWR will be temporarily closed until after the Thanksgiving Holiday. Somehow I have hurt my back and am unable to do much. 😩 While I am recovering, you can find other rehabilitators by visiting the Ohio Wildlife Rehabilitators website here.

If an animal is sick or injured, seek out help from Metropolitan Vet Hospital (free) 330-666-2976 or visit their website here. – Fran

It’s been an insane year so far for animal admissions! As of yesterday, we’ve had 564 animal brought in. Whew! No wonder I am tired! 🤣😂

Thank God that I have my husband Ron to help me answer the phones (we can literally get over a 150-200 calls per day during baby season or bad weather) while I am doing all the things that need done to care for, feed, clean and house the animals. Not to mention running back and…

BABY BEAVER UPDATE:
Back in July, we posted a video of a baby beaver, appx 4 weeks old, that was found but should have been left alone as mom was not far away. Well, that baby beaver is growing like a weed!
