| | | Would love to help raise/look after/release british wild animals
Is there any way that my home could become a place to raise an abandoned cub for releasing or an injured bird? abandoned animal, baby rats or mice? I read of volunteers helping look after animals that need it and its on my list of things i want to do to help wild britiain |

Try your local bat group, and hedgehog group. If they are anything like my local one's they will be grateful for other foster homes. |

You could apply to go to 'Tiggywinkles' to 'train' then go on from there. you can google it. |

Seriously, where abouts in the country are you. I wouldn't pay for an expensive course from Tiggys, just start off on a very small scale and do your research. |

Why do you think my idea about Tiggy's was so useless. Your post really hurt my feelings.why do you think you have the right to flush what someone else says straight down the toilet......Why could you not have said that you had an alternative, a cheaper option.I could have happily accepted that, but to dismiss my suggestion out of hand was in my opinion,non constructive and DISCOURTEOUS. Posie. |

Not sure why my comments provoked such an outburst. Posie, when did I say your idea was "useless"? I just offered another view - jeez!
Anyway, all I said was that I wouldn't pay for an expensive Tiggy's course in order to save the OP wasted money. In this instance, taking such a course would be a sledgehammer for a nut. I agree with the more... rational ... members that you should get involved volunteering with wildlife hospitals and then if you gain experience and enjoy it, you could consider taking a course as many volunteers lose interest early on.
I'm sure that Tiggy's courses are excellent, I was in no way suggesting otherwise.
Just an opinion!  | | | |
