COVID-19 Response Update
Huntington Beach, CA – March 20, 2020
Huntington Beach, CA – March 20, 2020
The COVID-19 Pandemic has forced us to make a few changes in our day to day operations ensuing Governor Newsom’s Shelter in Place order. Veterinary hospitals are considered essential and we are therefore exempted from the mandatory business closures. This exemption will allow us to keep caring for the numerous injured, orphaned and sick wildlife that we currently have in care. We will remain open daily with the following change in place:
You may also get further guidance and assistance from your local animal control.
While it may be easy to become overwhelmed in these challenging times, we will continue to work with our injured, orphaned and sick wildlife, one day at a time. As we all try to navigate this crisis together, we will continue to share any updates as soon as possible.

- Injured, orphaned and sick wildlife may be transported to us for treatment and triage. However, the drop off procedures have changed. Rescuers are asked to enter the Butler Building, one person at a time and ring the bell. A staff member will be out to greet you to collect the information necessary for animal intake. Please wait to enter until the person in front of you leaves the building. We have an area for you to wait until it is your turn to enter the Butler Building.

Look deep into Nature, and then you will understand everything better.
-Albert Einstein
"There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before."
-Robert Lynd
"Those who wish to pet and baby wildlife love them, but those who respect their natures and wish to let them live their natural lives, love them more."
