Patient Profiles

Every day new patients arrive at our facility. We see over 3,000 patients annually. Over 135 different species come to us for care. In an effort to tell their stories of survival and highlight the diverse number of species that we rehabilitate, we try to share some of their stories here. You can also see posts on our social media pages.

Red-breasted sapsucker

He was brought to us after being attacked by a cat. He was a bit disoriented, but did not suffer any serious injury. We are treating him with antibiotics.

Predation of wildlife by domestic cats is a serious problem all over the world. Some reports claim that "billions of animals are killed each year by domestic cats" - certainly this would be caused by both pets and strays.

Our records indicate that over a two year period (2016-2017) we received 533 confirmed cases of cat attacks.

PLEASE keep your cat inside, or consider installing a catio. Many species of birds are beginning to build nests - spring is around the corner. Status: released.
