August (Gus for short) on the left was Admitted on May 11, 2017 after he and his mom were chased by a dog. The dog grabbed the baby by its neck. We tried to reunite baby with mom but to no success. His wound, however, is healing nicely.
Blossum on the right was Admitted on May 12, 2017 after being found crying alone in a ditch. She was taken to a Vets office in Abbotsford and the Doctor there brought her into Critter Care. She was extremely frightened and panicky but over the course of a couple of days she settled right down with the comfort of the male fawn. She cuddled right up to him.
They are now outside in the fawn enclosure shed until they become stronger. They are given a few minutes of exercise after each feeding where they romp around the fawn enclosure compound. They will eventually be given full freedom in the enclosure once they become more relaxed in their environment.

If you usually donate by mail, the current Canada Post strike may delay your gift. But there are still simple ways you can support Critter Care Wildlife Society and help ensure that injured and orphaned wildlife continue to receive the care they need.
Raccoons are one of the most familiar and adaptable wild mammals in Southern British Columbia. They have established themselves in forests, wetlands, farmlands, and even our cities, thanks to their clever hands, masked faces, and curious nature.
