Featured animals: Rosemary and Thyme
Rosemary and Thyme are a cute pair of bonded kittens who came from a feral mom, but have gotten used to being around people at the Bloomington Animal Shelter. They’re both still shy and tend to hide with a lot of socialization. They would do well in a home that gives them time to warm up. During the day, they like to act like comfy kittens and curl up and sleep. With patience and time, they can relax, it’ll just take the right adopters who are willing to give these under-socialized kittens the chance that they deserve.
Featured topic: WildCare
WildCare is a nonprofit organization that provides professional care to sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife so that they may be returned to the wild. They provide care and rehabilitation services to all native Indiana wildlife species, with the exception of deer, and also strive to help protect the next generation of wildlife through education and community outreach programs. WildCare provides treatment for about 1500-2000 animals per year, and they have taken in thousands of animals since 2001. They also do approximately 75 educational outreach programs, reaching up to 3,000 people every year. WildCare holds permits through the Indiana DNR, USDA, and US Fish and Wildlife Service. They do not receive any state or federal funding and rely only on donor support to save the lives of injured and orphaned wild animals. WildCare has very limited staff and mostly relies on volunteers who generously donate their time.
