I thought this might be something worthwhile to do. I already have at least one rehab per state, and a few international ones that I follow, so with some of you becoming interested in supporting the owls directly recently, I thought it may be helpful to make an all-in-one resource for the owls.

I can break them out by location, and have if you can visit, how you can get in contact with them, donation links so you can support who services your area, and if they have an online store for owl merch.

I got started using Google Sheets, but before I got too far, I wanted to see if that was the best way to do this. Is this going to be usable for the most number of people, or should I do the list some other way? Do these items seem to cover everything you’d want to know or am I missing something? I felt this was pretty full coverage, without having to break down everything, like if they have a Chewy wishlist in addition to an Amazon list, you can still find it on the donation page, or you can get the street address from their main website, etc.

I don’t think there is any resource like this out there. Finding some of these places was difficult for me doing the 50 States of Owls, so this could be an important resource with benefit outside of Lemmy even.

Let me know your thoughts on how we can best do this or if you know a facility near you that you want to see on the list.

    This is a great idea! Doing it on Google Sheets is fine as a resource for this community, but it wouldn’t really have discoverability outside of it if that’s where you want to go with it.

    (Also it’s spelled Wisconsin btw)

      My brain isn’t doing its best work today. 😪

      It also seems I’d need to make an alt account to keep my name off of it. I couldn’t figure out how to make it so you can’t see my name while sharing.
