Animal Protection Austria Calls for "Nest Warmth - Crochet or Donate Challenge"
Every year, countless orphaned wild animal babies end up at the Vösendorf Animal Shelter. According to a press release on Tuesday, over 1,000 young birds were raised here in 2023 alone. In addition to heat lamps, the crocheted nests are intended to help protect the little ones from hypothermia.
Vösendorf Animal Shelter Accepts Crocheted Nests
Those who can crochet are asked to make nests ranging from egg cup size to 25 centimeters in diameter. Firm, insulating wool is best suited for this. The finished nests can be posted on social media with the hashtag #nestwärmespenden to spread the campaign further and will then be accepted by the Vösendorf Animal Shelter. The nests can either be delivered in person between 8 AM and 6 PM or sent by mail to Triester Straße 8, 2331 Vösendorf.
Those who cannot crochet and do not wish to learn can instead donate 20 euros and thus also complete the challenge.
