Meet Some Of Our Rescues
2.5 years old, 80 grams, Maggie is an amazing part of our Sugar Glider colony, she is stubborn and can be feisty but we love her all the same. Maggie came to us with a broken leg. Her previous owners loved her dearly and did not want to give her up, but the medical bills to care for her in this condition were starting to add up. This is when she made her way into our lives. We took in Maggie and got her to the vet. They tried a cast on her but after a few days she wasn’t healing, and that’s when our only option was to get her leg amputated. To our and the vets surprise, Maggie didn’t skip a beat!
1 year old, 55lbs. Scarlett is one of our most recent rescues. Her story starts in the home of a hoarder & a suspected drug addict. Scarlett was found in a tiny cage inside of this home and was locked up with an array of other animals. Scarlett and a dog were taken in together by a kind Calgary family and they had been so starved that when they were rescued and given food the dog attacked Scarlett and would not let her close to any of the food. Initially Scarlett was terrified of people and for good reason, but her rehabilitation and her new owners nursed her back to health and happiness. She was then given to us so she could have a safe and comfortable place to spend her life. Scarlett is now living happily with other animals here at the rescue.
47lbs, 18 years old, Since a Sulcatta tortoise can live up to 80 years old, Marleys story is a long one. Marleys original owner got Marley when he was the size of a twoonie. He was a gift from his girlfriend in high school. Fast forward 15 years later and things had changed, Marleys owner had planned moved to the USA but he didn’t want to get rid of Marely, but he couldn’t take him with him! So his parents kept Marley, they loved him so much they used to polish his shell. As Marleys new owners were getting older they wanted to downsize and wanted to make sure Marley had a good home where he would be taken care of. And that is when they called us. His old owners even come to visit Marley every summer.
6.5 years old, 44 lbs. Odie was initially bought as a pet in Idaho. When the family realized that wallabies are not that cuddly as they get older, they decided to get another pet for their child to play with. A dog. They then put the dog and kangaroo in the backyard together and the dog attacked Odie and ripped a chunk out of his ear. This is when they realized that they had made a huge mistake and needed to do something fast. This is when they donated Odie to another farm in the US that has kangaroos, and they called us to come and get him. We are so glad to have Odie and he is happy, and healthy.
