It’s a Wild Baby Shower and You’re Invited!

MILWAUKEE - For the entire month of July, the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center at the Wisconsin Humane Society is throwing a virtual wildlife baby shower to help care for the animals currently in our care.

  • What: Orphaned baby wild animals – cottontails, raccoons, gray squirrels,   opossums, mallard ducklings and baby birds – being cared for at the   Wildlife Rehabilitation Center at the Wisconsin Humane Society. 
  • Where: Wildlife Rehabilitation Center at the Wisconsin Humane Society   4500 W. Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53208
  • When: Tuesday, July 23, 2013, 2:00 – 4:30 p.m
  • Why: The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center is funded entirely through donations.  Last year, the Center treated nearly 5,000 wild animals; 60% of them were  orphaned babies.

The Center is asking for the public’s support to help these baby animals. Here’s how you can help:

  • Purchase a wild baby supply basket Baskets can be purchased at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center (4500 W. Wisconsin Ave,  Milwaukee) or online (simply enter the name of the basket in the "Animal Name" field, and enter  the appropriate dollar amount.) For every basket you donate, your name will be posted in  wildlife gallery. Visit www.wihumane.org for more information. 
  • Donate an item from our Amazon.com Wish List Please be sure to put your name, address, and/or email address in the "message" line of your  order so we are able to send you a donation receipt and thank you note! 
  • Make a monetary contribution Every penny we receive will help us save more wild animals in our community. The Wildlife  Rehabilitation Center receives no government funding and relies completely on donations.
