Some Recent Patients

Young Blackbird
This blackbird was attacked by a cat, it had no tail feathers and a small injury to one of its legs... Unfortunately it died after a few days with us.

Hedgehog
This hedgehog was only a baby when it came to us. It was so young it still needed toileting and hand feeding. One of our dedicated volunteers took it in and she is now doing very well. She's munching her way through 2 packets of cat food a day!



Pipistrelle Bat
This common pipistrelle bat was brought to us by the SSPCA. It had been caught in double glazing. The poor thing was very cold and hungry but after a night in a nice warm box with all the mealworms it could eat it was successfully released back in Castle Douglas.


Whiskered Bat
This bat was found on the bottom of a tree in the Barony College. It took 2 nights of feeding and warmth before it was ready to go.


Young Rabbits
3 young rabbits where brought in by the SSPCA. Unfortunately we are now down to 2. However they are eating well - we all have our fingers crossed for them!
