All animal and rescue related questions, please call the wildlife care hotline.
We DO NOT take domestic animals of any species. For domestic animals, please contact your local animal control agency.
We do not provide a pickup service. We are run by volunteers and rely on the public to bring us the wildlife that they find.
Please do not mail donations to this address. We do not receive mail here and it will be returned to you.
Intake Hours: Every Day, 8am – 6pm
Due to state and federal regulations, members of the public are not allowed beyond the intake area – facility tours are not given.
For information about sick, injured, or orphaned wildlife and rescue information, leave a message on WCA’s hotline at 916-965-9453 and a volunteer will return your call as soon as possible. You can also find rescue information in the Found Animal section of our website.
Place the animal in a box, put on a heating pad in half the box set on low, and place in a safe, quiet area away from drafts, children, pets, or any other loud/distracting noises. Do not give the animal food or water.
