Rehabilitate Wallabies & Other Native Wildlife

This little kangaroo's name is Cloudy, he was found in one of Sydneys Northern suburbs starving, so weak that he couldn’t stand up.

Thanks to your donations and the Volunteer carers hard work Cloudy is now recovering well and in a few months will be able to move into the rehabilitation facility.

To help an animal like Cloudy to survive it takes a lot of care. As he'd had no food for a long period of time and needed fluid injections to hydrate him we needed to feed him small amounts often and the formula needed to be diluted as his stomach would not cope with full strength.

He was kept quiet and needed heat for shock initially even though it was very warm in Sydney when Cloudy came into care.

Once the formula started to work and he put on some weight the formula strength was increased and the feeding frequency decreased.

Now a couple of months later we have an active and much healthier joey that can not only stand but hop around.

We have continued to work on the rehabilitation area with volunteers lifting heavy rubber to finish the walls in the Quarantine area, (which I might add looks great). It is so good to now have a facility to enable us to take in injured adult Macropods where they wont further hurt them selves on hard surfaces while they are being treated.

Maintenance of the area is continuous by our corporate volunteers with planting, weeding and watering of native bushes that provide food for the Macropods, also regularly mowing of the surrounding areas.

We feel blessed to have so many wonderful volunteers helping us achieve our goal.
