Radish the Rabbit
This poor rabbit suffered from temporary paralysis after being shaken by a dog. After some a full medical check-up and some much needed TLC, Radish made a full recovery and hopped off back into the wild.
Sushi the Black-Headed Gull
Sushi was found unable to walk at the Aquadrome in Rickmansworth. On examination we noticed he could not move his legs but could not support his weight. X-rays showed no fractures so we started on medical treatment with antibiotics. 48h after his arrival, Sushi started to show improvement but it took him three full weeks…
Peanut the Fox
Peanut was found really weak in somebody’s garden. All her front teeth were rotten – most likely from a traumatic injury – and her mouth besides smelling rotten, looked very painful. She was started on fluids, pain killers and on a soup like diet so she could eat. And as soon as she was strong…
Olive & Oreo the Tawny Owls
Olive came into our care after being found facedown in a puddle and Oreo was found cold and alone on the floor of the woods. Several weeks of hand feeding and they were old enough to be rehomed. Due to being hand reared from such a young age they couldn’t be released into the wild…

After two days of intensive treatment, instead of improving like his sister, Crouton was getting worse. His blood work showed severe anaemia, putting him in desperate need of a blood transfusion. At that…
