All the animals are getting so big!

Well hello!  Its been a busy week at 2nd Hand Rescue.  We've had a new Coonie orphan join us, his name is Buddy and boy is he a character.  He was not impressed with moving into a troop of coonies but 1 thunderstorm changed his mind.  In the morning he was the best of friends with his new family- that's a good thing cuz they will need to stick together this winter if any want to survive.  Well the baby bunnies are all free - I see them all over the yard - its wonderful.  The squirrels have moved into the woods - the trees are full of nuts, but I sure miss the little nutters!  Rexy my runt of a grey squirrel returned after 2 weeks of freedom very thin and tired - guess she's just not ready - so she may overwinter - she is sooo tiny.  We had many visitors this week too - My friend Patti from Chicagoland brought her 2 granddaughters, as well as my friend Mary and her 2 daughters and 5 grand children.  Its always wonderful to share the beauty of Illinois Wildlife.  Then I have to give a HUGE shout out of Thanks to Devin, Hannah and Catalina who had a lemonade stand that also sold shells and rocks and donated all their hard earned money to support their little Jake.  Kudos kiddos - you are top knotch!!  I'm going to buy 2 big bags of puppy chow and a bag of marshmallows - Jake will be one happy boy!!  Ok so here's a quick video of Buddy & Jake. See ya next time -
