We've had a couple of Little Owls brought into the Hospital over the past week or so. One was found in a sorry state, with a nasty head wound. This could have been from a larger Bird of Prey, such as a Buzzard, or from a cat. The wound required veterinary treatment, so the owl was taken to our specialist vet who is providing critical care in the hope that it will recover. The second Little Owl was found on the floor in a skinny state, and had possibly also been picked up by a cat. Cats pose a big threat to our wildlife, and a bite from a cat can carry some nasty infections, so we’ll be keeping a close eye on this little one over the coming days.
