Featured Critter 
Willow Willow, a juvenile white dove, came to us covered in feces which made her appear green. She's now a gorgeous white, happy girl who loves her food. She's just starting to coo, after being completely silent for the first two weeks. Willow has learned "Step Up", and will now sit on me for up to 1/2 an hour at a time. She's also enjoying the ability to stretch her beautiful wings. To see other critters in need of homes, click the "Adoptable Critters" button above. Click here for website maintenance issues.

Surrender Form (If you are surrendering an animal to us, you will need to complete this form.)
Rehabilitating a Pet Raccoon Our President, Michelle, was quoted in this article. It contains helpful information on how to rehabilitate a pet raccoon for release back into its native habitat. I Found a Baby Bird. Now What? I Found a Baby Mammal. Now What? Do's & Don'ts For Orphaned or Injured Wildlife What is a Wildlife Rehabilitator?
These care sheets are very basic. Upon adoption of an animal, we will provide more in-depth information. If you have questions, feel free to contact us! Evansville Parent Article on Choosing a Pet (Our president, Michelle, was quoted in this article!)
The following is a list of the vets we use to treat rescue animals, as well as our own. We speak with a lot of people who do not realize exotic pets need vet care too. There are vets who specialize in exotic pets, and it is important to have one available if your pet becomes ill. The following have all supported A Critter's Chance by discounting their services and providing excellent care. Please consider calling on one of them for your pet!
While A Critter's Chance does not accept surrendered dogs or cats, we do work with rescues in order to try to help these animals as well. Below is a listing of rescues we would recommend.
Ruby Ranch Pig Sanctuary is located in the Arthur/Mount Forest area of Ontario, Canada. They provide sanctuary for potbelly pigs and also rescued farm pigs. Please visit their site to learn more about them. We came in contact with them after posting the story of Wilbur, one of our foster pigs that was stolen. They emailed us right away expressing their concern and well wishes for Wilbur's safe return. There is a great need for pig rescues, so we are very happy they contacted us. Hopefully, we can work together in the future in order to save more pigs! |
