Walden's Puddle

Walden's Puddle consistently admits and provides top quality care for over 2,000 animals of 100 different species yearly. We now have our Walden's Puddle Education Center at fontanel mansion in nashville, Tennessee, with programs at this location, as well as at schools, social groups, church groups and other groups throughout middle Tennessee. We send out four informative newsletters/appeals yearly and, through generous donations, we have been able to clean and repair our facility's infrastructure, repair existing animal enclosures and build new pre-release enclosures to accommodate our increasing animal admissions. Finally, we have engaged the boy scouts, the honorable judge norman's dc4 participants, interns from area colleges, senior citizens, hands on nashville/clarksville for volunteers, various civic and church groups and many local businesses which have featured us as their charitable cause for mixer nights and other creative business oriented events. Our goal is to balance four factors: the number of animals admitted and rehabilitated, the facility's size and structure to accommodate them, the number of staff and volunteers to care for them, and the financial prosperity to support all this as we grow.
