Hello! I'm Rebecca and I help my Mummy and Daddy at "Roger's Wildlife Rescue" in Woodingdean. I'm four now, so I'm going to be a really big help this year. Here are some of the things I helped with last year.
Daddy let me help him feed baby birds from his pen knife - baby blue tits and also these little swifts. I liked the swifts. When they were old enough we all went and released them. Daddy threw each one into the air and we watched them fly away.
I helped Daddy bottle feed Valentine the badger cub, and also squirrels and rabbits. Of course, I had to have a little help, but maybe soon I'll be able to do it myself. Then I'll be a really big help!
When I can't feed them myself, I help by carrying birds and animals carefully to Daddy or Mummy, or holding them while they clean out. I know how to be gentle. I love holding animals and birds, the wild ones and my pets too.
Sadly, my special house bunny, Foxy, died just before Christmas. He was nearly ten, which is very old for a rabbit, and we all miss him a lot.
I even fed some baby lambs at the Sheep Centre near East Dean. I still love sheep, as well as puppies, disney princesses, Peppa Pig, Thomas the Tank Engine, dinosaurs, dressing up, reading and telling stories and, of course, helping with the animals.
We had about 300 baby gulls in last year, and I helped Mummy clean them out. Well, I sort of helped. It took Mummy a long time to get the sawdust out of my hair and boots!
One of our favourite animals last year was Valentine the badger cub. I wonder what this year will bring?
One thing is sure, now that I'm four, I shall want to help more than ever. You can be sure I'll be around if you come to our door. I'm really looking forward to meeting lots of new animals and birds and helping to look after them all with Daddy and Mummy.
