Appalachian Wild is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to coordinate the needs of wildlife rehabilitation in Western North Carolina by providing care for injured and orphaned wildlife, support for the wildlife rehabilitation network, and conservation education to the community.

FOUND AN ANIMAL, NOW WHAT?

Determine if the animal truly needs human intervention or if its wild mother has it tucked away for safekeeping while she is out foraging. Click the “Found an Animal” tab at AppalachianWild.org for educational flowcharts on birds, mammals, and reptiles to learn what action needs to be taken to best serve the animal.

YOUR SUPPORT SAVES WILD LIVES!

The number of injured and orphaned wildlife is increasing significantly each year due to increased human/animal interactions, including lot clearing, traffic collisions, food/plastics litter, etc. It is projected that more than 2,000 animals will be cared for at our wildlife care facility in 2020. Please help us provide care for them by donating today at AppalachianWild.org.

Asheville Cat Weirdos Emergency Fund

http://ashevillecatweirdos.org/

Asheville Cat Weirdos is a registered nonprofit organization serving people and their cats in Western North Carolina. Our food pantry is stocked with donated food, litter, and non-prescription medication that is sealed in its original packaging and has not expired. Some packaging may be damaged in the transportation process.

Our pantry can offer up to a three month supply of cat food (divided into biweekly installments) before re-application is required.

In 2018, the Asheville Cat Weirdos Emergency Fund Emergency Veterinary Assistance program helped 132 cats, with a total of $38,814.52! The more we do, the more we realize our program is desperately needed in the area, and we’re expected to grow in 2019 and beyond.
