Wanna guess who got sprayed by one of these cuties a few days ago?? I’ll give you a clue: it’s start with M & ends with E … 🙋🏼‍♀️

Wanna also guess who’s turning this recently donated catio (meant for squirrels) into a new temporary skunk enclosure? Also 🙋🏼‍♀️

I’m not sure who donated this catio, but THANK YOU!! This will be my saving grace until I get the skunks’ larger enclosure secured (hopefully by this weekend).

Once their permanent enclosure is ready, they’ll be transferred over and this catio will then become a luxury resort for squirrels!

Again, I’m sending out a HUGE thank you to the person who sent this brand new catio! What a generous and MUCH needed gift!! This donation is a blessing in so many ways!

P.S. I’d also like to thank the person who discovered the wonderful “de-skunk” concoction- hydrogen peroxide, baking soda & dish soap!! 🙃

🤗 Edited to add a HUGE thank you to Nicole Mckim for helping me put this massive structure together on Sunday in 90°+ weather. The instructions said 1 hour to build .. it took us close to 2 hours, but we had fun learning (for the most part) as we went🤣

Three MORE baby squirrels came in this afternoon.

Their finder and her dog were outside when they heard the babies’ high pitch cries. When the dog went to investigate what was making the sound, the babies & their nest were found on the ground.

The finder wasn’t sure how long the babies had been grounded. She scooped them up in a towel along with some of their nest and left them out to see if their mama would come back for them.. sadly, she didn’t retrieve them ☹️

Two girls and a finally a boy 🩷🩷💙 .. all snuggled up in the incubator with the army of other baby squirrels that came in over the weekend.

Within a 3 hour time frame on Saturday morning, I received 6 calls for baby squirrels. Apparently there was an awful wind storm that had passed through parts of Middlesex & King William, knocking nests and babies from the trees.

6 babies in total came in… ALL girls 💗

Sadly, since they all ended up with bumps and bruises (some major), trying to reunite them with their mamas was not an option.

Thank y’all so much for playing along with “caption this photo!”

Choosing a winner was tough- there were SO many great captions! I went with the caption that matched what first came to my mind when taking the picture.. if you knew Pearl, you’d know she’s an attention seeker and doesn’t like to share…

“Mommm...Do I have to let her swing too”

The winner is… Elizabeth Taylor 🎉🩷

Elizabeth, you get to choose one of the following as your prize: (I’ll send you pictures to choose from- message me- FB won’t let me message you first ☺️)

- MWR T-shirt
- Wooden shelf sitter (your choice)
- Wildlife Notebook (your choice)
- Tote bag (your choice)

This was fun!! Who wants to do it again? I have so many pictures that need captions… and I love giving away prizes!

This sweet little girl came in last night after having been caught by a cat. Luckily, the finder found her when he did. She has a few scratches but no visible puncture wounds and, luckily, nothing appears to be broken.

I know her mama is missing her and her siblings are wondering why she isn’t there. She never got the chance to even see their faces💔
Her eyes should be opening soon…

In lieu of her arrival last night, on the day the world lost a beautiful soul, choosing a name was very simple.

Everyone, meet Dolly 💛

Right when I thought I was done taking in babies for the season…I got a call about these 4 precious little angels. My heart skipped a beat..

Sadly, mama skunk had been hit & killed on the road. These babies were with her, still trying to nurse. The officer who found them scooped them up into a carrier and called me immediately. He moved mama out the road & walked around to make sure there wasn’t more babies in the area before leaving.

During my entire wildlife rehab journey I’ve only taken in 2 skunks- one my second year and one a year later. Sadly, they both tested positive for distemper during intake and passed just days later.

These animals are so misunderstood, are disrespected by so many, and are extremely under appreciated. They are beautiful, peaceful, beneficial creatures 🩷

It’s sad to think of the heartbreaking experience these babies went through yesterday, but I’m thankful to be able to help give these little ones a second chance at life. They’ve always been one of my favorite wild animals (even though my daughter and I were both sprayed about 20 years ago during a late night atv ride🙃)

3 boys & 1 girl (who happens to have a solid white tail! ). All weigh approximately 225 grams (about 1/2 pound).
