The SPCA Monterey County Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center is currently caring for 10 orphaned young raccoons and 7 orphaned young squirrels, in addition to 16 other wild patients.
Do you know one thing these growing squirrels and raccoons have in common, besides being in the safe and nurturing care of the SPCA? They all love acorns!
You can help the SPCA care for these growing babies by gathering acorns! Acorns are a natural part of squirrel and raccoon diets.
If you have California Live Oaks on your property (or campus or workplace), you likely have hundreds of acorns on the ground. You can help these little ones by gathering the acorns and bringing them to the SPCA Wildlife Center! Donations can be dropped off daily from 8 am to 5 pm.
The SPCA Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center is the only full service wildlife rehabilitation center serving Monterey County. We operate under permits from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. Your support is extremely important to us, as we do not receive funding from any federal, state or local government agency. Each year, The SPCA Wildlife Center admits over 2,500 animals for treatment and care.
SPCA Monterey County is your nonprofit, independent, donor-supported humane society that has been serving the animals and people of Monterey County since 1905. The SPCA is not a chapter of any other agency and does not have a parent organization. They shelter homeless, neglected and abused pets and livestock, and provide humane education and countless other services to the community. They are the local agency you call to investigate animal cruelty, rescue and rehabilitate injured wildlife, and aid domestic animals in distress.
