Sara’s Sanctuary is a Federally Licensed 501 (c) 3 non profit Animal Rescue Facility & USDA licensed.
Sara’s Sanctuary is not open to the public. We are often asked, “Why Not?” The answer is: Sara’s Sanctuary is not a zoo. We are a rescue facility that was created to provide animals in need a quiet, predictable, safe and loving home, something many of them have never known before. Because of their backgrounds, many of the animals that are here, can be unpredictable and react negatively around humans they don’t know. Many of animals were illegally purchased, according to Washingston State laws, so subsequently confiscated by city or county agencies before they were brought to us. These animals, are innately wild animals and many need to be protected from the stress of further human exposure and interaction. The animal’s daily care and well-being is our number one priority. We hope that reading their stories and viewing their pictures, you will learn what we are all about. You can take a peek at many of our wonderful babies, and hope you will better understand our mission for the animals that come to us. Have you found an orphaned baby? It is baby season… there will be many baby critters out there, trying very hard to survive with nature and us HUMANS. There are many baby squirrels, baby cottontails (wild baby rabbits), raccoons, and fawns (baby deer), which might seem like they have been abandoned. Please stop – before you make that decesion to pick them up! Usually, the situation is OK, and the mother has just been scared off by humans or other animals, or typically they are off feeding themselves. They are probably waiting nearby to continue to care for their babies until you go away! Please resist picking them up! If you truly think they are injured or orphaned, only then – pick them up and intervine, and then you MUST take them to a licensed rehabilitation facility. Baby bunnies are the first that people seem to pick up when they don’t need your help – Please read the Baby Cottontail Information located on our “Contact” page before you try to make that determination. If you feel any that there are any wildlife in danger, please call a wild life rehab center – just click on the links for WA. state (wild life) |
