Duckling Rescued

ByJon

She’s so sweet,  how could we not take on this little girl!

This little duckling was brought in by a cat, fortunately the owner retrieved her from the jaws and took the duckling to a vets before later bring her to us.

Cats mouths are very infectious so it’s lucky that this duckling got away with minor damage.

Here you can see her in our pond with another duck we rescued a month ago. The duckling thinks she’s a human so she needs to spend time with her own kind.
