Mice/Voles/Moles Etc.
If you find a small rodent that has been injured or caught by a cat/dog, please pick it (whilst wearing gloves) and place into a plastic box. Alternatively if you are not confident to handle it, place a towel over it. If you have the rodent in a box, give them something to hide under as it helps to reduce stress.
Once you have container the rodent, if the injuries require, please take it to a vet, if there injuries are minor please contact us.
Young Rodents
If you find a young rodent, which does have fur and its eyes are open, unless it has signs of injury or illness note where you saw it and monitor, do not touch them. The parents are likely nearby and will return. If their nest has been disturbed the parents will usually move them onto a new nest so monitor them for a while before seeking help.
If you find a young rodent without fur, with its eyes not yet open, it needs help, so please contact us.
