Ohio Wildlife Center’s Hospital

My girlfriend found 9 baby ducks in the trash by her work in gahanna. The people who threw them away deserve to be in the trash not these cute little guys. We took them home overnight and on my way to work dropped them off here because I was referred by many sources. This place is great and deserve any donations for the work they do on a daily basis. Stop by and donate or help them out. Thanks again for helping these ducks. Appreciate it!

So what do you do when your two pet cats and two of your neighbor’s cats are circling around a captured 2″ long baby rabbit? YOU MOVE FAST!
Fortunately we were able to take it off their evening menu and it was uninjured.
The next problem: Where’s the mother rabbit and would she take it back after smelling cat and human on her baby? We couldn’t find the nest anywhere in the area. So the next day we take it to The German Village Animal Hospital on S. High who referred us to the Ohio Wildlife Hospital in Dublin.
Duh. That’s when I remembered Liz. M’s reply to the talk thread about the injured duck. I should have checked Unilocal first and saved the time and gasoline!
Long story short, go in the side door behind the hospital and go down the stairs. They took it in without much ado. They just asked a few questions and asked for a donation. $ 10 did the trick.
They said they’d take care of it and would let us know the status of what happened.
We’re thinking positive thoughts here.
If you have an injured, orphaned or ill critter that needs help, these people will help you out. They do ask for a donation to help with costs as they are staffed mostly with good hearted volunteers.
Good people, good organization.

This is a great place to know about in this city if you encounter injured wildlife.
A few weeks back I was walking to work and noticed a red figure twitching in the distance on cobblestone lincoln street. As i approached i heard severe squawking and realized it was an injured cardinal, not an elmo doll that had been cast aside as I initially suspected.
I went up to my office got some work gloves and a box to put the little guy in. I called the OWC injured wildlife hotline and they told me to bring in the feathered little patient.
Upon arrival I was a bit confused because this place actually operates in the basement of a vet’s office. As i entered, i expected to find a non-​profit dungeon rehab joint, but it was very clean with several animals in clear view behind the desk. The all volunteer staff was quick to help me but also quick to get me out as they were very busy. I was asked to give a donation and felt a little weird, wondering if my 2 bucks (all i had on hand) would hinder our state bird’s treatment.
I was relived to find out later that the cardinal had a bum wing that was treated and he was ready to be reintroduced to the wild. My only complaint is that I had to call several times to get this information when I requested and was told that they would call me… guess i don’t have that much going on in my life right now.
