We Need Your Help!

It is a common misconception that the state pays for wildlife care. In reality, the rehabilitator pays most of the expenses associated with wildlife rehabilitation. Happy Feet Rescue relies on the contributions and donations of people like you to ensure our goal of providing every animal in our care proper treatment and release into its natural habitats.

Wildlife rehabilitation typically involves caring for injured, ill and orphaned wild animals. Each animal brought into the program is evaluated, diagnosed, and treated through an individually tailored program of veterinary care, hospital care, feeding, medicating, physical therapy, exercising, and pre-release conditioning. Once ready, they get released during the appropriate weather, season, habitat, and location.

We receive no city, county, state, or federal funding and rely solely on generous donations from the public to finance our operation. The costs of each animal rehabilitation vary due to the individual treatment options we provide. The more severe the injury or condition, the more expensive it can be to rehabilitate.
