koala hospital

Earlier this week Will and I visited the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie. The Hospital rescues 200-250 injured and orphaned koalas annually. We were too early for the 3pm tour hosted daily by one of the volunteers, but it was lovely to see the adorable little things doing so well (or, rather, sleeping so soundly!) after experiencing trauma, such as a motor vehicle accident or a dog attack. Click here to see some of the cutest furry faces you have ever seen! It costs $50 to adopt a koala for one year.

It would be fantastic to adopt a koala for a year! I've always loved koalas, they look so furry and cuddly!

awww, they are so cute, what a great cause and it only costs 50 dollars! I once held a koala, they have sharp claws, but they sure love to cuddle (as long as they are eating)

A great cause and a great gift, too.
