23.01.2022 Read this first! FAQs & Answers Hi there! Thanks so much for joining this group and lending a hand we rely on the amazing skills of volunteers to produce pouc...hes, wraps and more for orphaned wildlife. What’s most needed? See the attached image with items rated by our need. Joey pouches of all sizes and styles are MOST needed, koala mittens are NOT needed any more. Please only follow information shared by admins. This will prevent confusion and misinformation. We work very closely with our carers and know what they do, and do not, need. Where can I find the patterns? Many patterns are shared below. Other patterns can be found in the Files tab in the group: Animal Rescue Craft Guild Sewers: Welcome! We desperately need bat wraps, joey pouches of all sizes, and hanging joey pouches. All of these are in need and can be made with a sewing machine. (No hand sewn items.) Crocheters: Hi! We need your birds nest making skills! Crocheted nests of various sizes are needed for orphaned birds and small rodents. Also blankets. Knitters: Bonjour! If you can knit you can make some sweet blankets and jumpers that'll keep our fellas warm. We have some great knitting patterns that can be whipped up for our joeys, lambs, penguins, and other animals. Knitted joey pouches are also needed. Not a crafter but still want to help? Donations are VERY welcome to cover supplies and postage costs. Make a tax deductible donation here: https://mkc.org.au/donations/arfsncrafts The Files section has our APPROVED patterns. We recommend you do not vary from these patterns as they have been checked by our wildlife carers and meet their requirements and preferences. Have a question? Message us! Joey Pouches FAQs How many are needed? Carers need a constant supply so as many you can make. They will be needed over the next few months and are distributed to carers all around the country. What sizes should I make? All sizes are needed from tiny pouches for sugar gliders all the way to large sizes that fit older kangaroo joeys. Whatever you can make is needed. Sizes do not need to be exact because joeys also come in all sizes :) What fabric should I use? That depends on which part you’re making. Inner pouches: 100% natural fibre only (cotton, bamboo, linen, silk). Flannelette or plain cotton are great, some carers love stretchy t-shirt cotton. Upcycled bed sheets and doona covers are perfect for these. Fabric should be very soft (what you would give to a baby). French seams are a MUST for all joey pouch liners. Outer pouches: Cotton, flannelette, polar fleece, wool, jersey, sweatshirt material, etc. Poly blends and synthetics are OK. Carers have their own preferences based on their experience and environment. French seams are not needed for outer pouches.

Bat Wraps See the files section for a great pattern. 100% cotton flannelette is preferred. Crochet Nests A variety of sizes are needed. Our recommendation is to use one thread of a cotton 8-10ply and one thread of 8ply acrylic with a 5 to 5.5mm hook. See the files section for our preferred pattern. Rescuers! Please fill out this form so we know who you are and what you need: http://bit.ly/ARCCGRescuer Note that we are not approving posts saying 'thank you for adding me' or to do with the fires. We often turn off commenting on posts once an answer has been provided to prevent any confusion. These policies are to help reduce clutter on the group so we can focus on our crafting. P.S. A reminder too that everyone here is a volunteer and most of us also work full time jobs and have other responsibilities. We aim to get back to everyone, answer all questions etc. but as with all volunteer run groups, we aren’t available 24/7. Thank you for reading and for your hard work! We're all here because we love the animals and want to help.

23.01.2022 Spring has well and truely sprung this is a busy time for shelters as wildlife start to have babies It’s important to remember that most baby birds called ‘...fledglings’ when ready to leave the nest learn to fly from the ground. Please keep your cats inside, especially at night, and keep your dogs on a leash when walking. Do not pick the birdies up, their parents will be around to feed them. Parents will come back to the fledglings usually within a couple of hours so if you do find a baby bird, keep an eye on them and look out for mum and dad. You can also pop them in a safer area close by if you feel they may be in danger. If they have no feathers or look injured be sure to give us a call. See more

22.01.2022 What are we doing!!

21.01.2022 Millions of hectares of land have been devastated by bushfires in the past weeks, and it doesn’t look to be easing anytime soon. It is heartbreaking to see this... catastrophe unfold and our native wildlife dying, injured and losing the land they call home. In response to this emergency Aussie Ark, in partnership with Global Wildlife Conservation, has launched the Aussie Wildlife Bushfire Appeal. The appeal has been kicked off with a whopping $50,000 donation from GWC. Funds raised will go directly to communities worst affected, wildlife worst affected, Aussie Ark critical refuge habitats, along with bush fire prevention, rehabilitation and species/habitat recovery. Australia needs your help. Our ask is simple dig deep and donate to help stop these fires and save our native wildlife.

12.01.2022 How to help the wildlife!!

09.01.2022 *A SAD BUT IMPORTANT MESSAGE* Please take the time to read it and share so that more lives can be saved. A tragic but common sight on our roads especially durin...g the holiday season. The horrible fires that are still burning are also forcing animals out of their normal habitat and into traffic. Our female marsupials have pouches and often their babies can survive a vehicle collision and in some cases stay alive for days. When safe to do so, PLEASE check any deceased animals for live young. Animals with pouches include possums, koalas, wallabies, kangaroos, wombats, bandicoots, echidnas etc. WHAT TO DO: Remember to be aware and extremely cautious near the road Park in a safe location and turn on hazard lights Safely move the animal off the road Search the belly of the animal and look for boy bits (very obvious testicles towards the tail) If it is a female, thoroughly search the belly for the pouch opening and carefully stretch open and look inside Place your hand gently inside the pouch to feel for a baby (pouches are deeper than you'd expect!) If there is something inside it is important to remove it even if it appears lifeless (dehydrated/cold young can be alive but appear dead) A good idea is to transport small animals with a baby in its pouch to a carer or a vet so an experienced person can remove the baby. But only if they aren’t too far away otherwise the baby can get too cold. Call for advice. REMOVING A JOEY FROM THE POUCH: At this point it is best to call Sydney Wildlife on 9413 4300 or your local wildlife rescue for assistance/advice EXTREME care is needed as a youngster can be easily injured by a rough handler, call for assistance/advice NEVER pull the baby animal by the legs, tail or head Gently move your hand to the base of the pouch and, with a scooping motion, carefully bring it to the opening of the pouch *NOTE* some babies are too big to fit through the opening and so the pouch needs to be cut to allow room, call for advice to avoid injury to the baby The baby's mouth will be firmly attached to the mother's teat and injury can occur if you try to remove it so best to call for advice at this point. If you have no other option, the teat can be cut as close to the mother as possible so that the baby doesn't swallow/choke on it (a safety pin can be carefully put through the cut end of the teat to stop this happening too) Put the joey immediately into a pouch or beanie and keep warm. The best option in most cases is down your top for your body heat Don't use this as an opportunity to update your instagram or get cute photos of your kids with it. You are a predator and the joey will be fearing for its life IMMEDIATELY get it to an experienced wildlife carer by phoning your local group, or take it to a vet NEVER EVER feed or offer any liquids. The wrong foods (such as cow's milk) can be fatal. Wildlife carers have specialised marsupial formula and rehydrating fluids Once checked, use a can of very bright/fluoro spray paint to make a LARGE 'X' on the animal to show other passing motorists that the pouch has been checked. The bigger and brighter the 'X' the better! Some helpful things to keep in the car: Hi-vis vest Gloves Torch Bright spray paint Towel Surgical scissors Pouch or an old beanie Safety pin DOWNLOAD the IFAW rescue app so that you can find the details of your nearest wildlife rescue group wherever you are in NSW: https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app If you want to become a licensed wildlife carer or want to help with fundraising, answering calls in the office, etc, sign up for our next Rescue & Care course held 15-16 Feb 2020 at Centennial Park: http://www.sydneywildlife.org.au/upcoming-courses.html Our wildlife thanks you!
