27,000 abused and neglected exotic animals are given a new lease on life! This week will be hectic for hundreds of volunteers transporting the animals all over the country to new rescue homes.
Critter Camp will likely be taking in some of the smaller critters!
We are looking for someone in Nashville, TN area to pick up and transport-or possibly just house overnight, as well as someone in the mid southern IL area to tranpsort too- email us ASAP if you are able to help!
Thank you to the Crafty Weasels of GA for the great box of hand sewn blankies, sleep sacks & the new sling to carry the ferrets needing extra snuggling!
(To find our opportunities go to their site, put in our zip 61039 and select 'Animals and the Environment' category- ours should be the first two listed.)
The first 70 or so folks have come to visit us and help with the animals, bringing supplies -and what GREAT Supplies they are bringing!
Gee only about 400 to go and more signing up everyday!
Please note we are booking TOURS on Weekdays into June and Weekends into September!
