RBWS and Wildlife Veterinary Centre

Wish List

We cannot possibly achieve our goal to provide free veterinary care to wildlife and their rescuers, carers and shelters without a little (ok, a lot!) of help from our friends and supporters. We are frequently in need of items to keep the clinic and storeroom stocked.

You can purchase and donate an item to send to us (email us for the details) or donate funds for us to purchase it.

Our postal address is:

PO BOX 55
Elphinstone  VIC 3448

 

Thank you for loving kangaroos!

Scott, Nikki and the El-roos 

HERE IS A WISH LIST OF THE ITEMS WE CURRENTLY NEED. 

DOG LEADS

These are needed to tie kangaroo legs down rather than us holding them. Kangaroos are sedated when we do this so there is no fear but it frees up our hands. Recently Dr Mark needed these and not having them, we used a long pair of socks 🙂
Two are needed.

$5.49. Click  HERE or the image for where to buy link.

SANDBAGS

Placed alongside the animal whilst on the consult table, sandbags help secure the animal when ties are not necessary

50ML BIG MOUTH LUER SLIP SYRINGE

50ml glass syringe to help us make up bottles.

$47.88. Click HERE  or image for link.

NATURAL RAW ALMONDS

Natural raw unsalted almonds. The kangaroos love their almonds and these are a real treat for them. They are also good to hollow out to slip tablets into!

$12.40  – $14.40 per kg HERE  or from your preferred place of purchase if you would like to send us a smaller quantity.

THE PETLAB ECO LAUNDRY LIQUID 2L

Free from chemicals, plant based, scent free and organic, this is needed to wash the babies pouches and bedding in. It is also skin friendly.

$48. Click HERE or image for link

ESSENTIALS SUTURE KIT

This is a necessary ‘quick grab’ item for Dr Mark and the clinic  – everything in one place. 

$50.00 Click HERE or click image for where to buy link

HEATED THROW BLANKET

These blankets are needed to warm up those in shock or not mobile, so need help staying warm.

ZEBRA VET WRAP 10CM X 2.4M BOX12

It takes close to one roll to wrap the arm of a big man and then they pull at it so it’s rewrapped. We are currently going through a LOT of this item.

PETLAB HEALTHY HABITAT CLEANER, DISINFECTANT & ODOUR ELIMINATOR

This is used to complete a deep clean on the huts once patients have returned home. Floors are removed and panels individually scrubbed down. This agent is Australian made and owned, plant based, vegan and devoid of chemicals. Perfect for our huts that house precious patients 

$79.95-$89.95.  Click HERE or image for link 

3 IN 1 STEAM STERILISER

We use this 2-3 times a day to ensure all the babies bottles are cleaned between feeds.

$149.95. Click HERE or click image for link

8-9KG FRONT LOADING WASHINE MACHINE

Help us buy a new front loading washing machine!

Whilst this item may not attract many donors, it is one of the most necessary items a shelter can own.  Our washing machine runs non-stop throughout the day. Linen, pouches, towels, blankets and bum-rags all need to be cleaned, dried and put away within 24 hours to avoid a backlog. We opt for a front loader as they do not un-balance and scare the joeys as it is plumbed outside. Nice and close to the washing line!
 

Click HERE for an example of what we need, but it does not necessarily need to be this one. It just needs to be a big one (8-9 kg capacity)!

An extremely valuable and wanted item. Thank you for even considering this.

SUPPORT RBWS
Donate for our much needed hay run! 

Supplement feed and hay is very popular during the wet season. Our kangaroo family, both free and in care, come “home” for shelter and a snack. No one ever goes hungry here thanks to our donors xx
