Episode 2 of 10

Wildlife assistant Juanita attempts to hand-rear the tiniest litter of red squirrels ever admitted to the centre. Meanwhile, Kaniz and Gaby struggle with a pair of feisty gannets.

The orphan season at the SSPCA Rescue Centre continues with the admission of a brood of tiny orphaned squirrels. With bald skins and closed eyes, they are among the smallest that have ever been admitted to the centre. It’s down to wildlife assistant Juanita to take on the job of rearing them by hand, but there is help from April, the acting head of large mammals. Juanita names them after birds, and soon, Goose, Puffin, Noddy, Dodo and co are off on their rewilding journey at the centre.

Meanwhile, in the sea-bird area, the team are dealing with a pair of feisty young characters - Noodles and Big Mac are a pair of orphaned gannets full of ‘teenage’ attitude. However, that doesn’t phase their carers, Gaby and Kaniz, who are determined to get them back to the wil.
