She was taking <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/pets\/dogs\/how-a-rescue-dog-helped-her-heal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">her rescue pup<\/a>, Cassie, for a walk in her Winnipeg, Canada, neighborhood, when a loud caw startled her. Some crows rose up in a flurry of black feathers. One of them had snatched a baby robin, but as the crow took flight, it dropped the baby to the ground. Kara rushed over.<\/p>\n<p>Cassie took a closer look, sniffing the tiny creature. Kara knew she couldn\u2019t leave him there. Gently, she carried him back home and settled him in a box lined with grass. \u201cHe looked like he was in shock,\u201d she says. The fall had injured the robin\u2019s feet, and he wasn\u2019t able to curl his toes to perch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always been an animal person,\u201d Kara says. She has worked with <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/pets\/she-founded-north-americas-largest-elephant-sanctuary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rescued elephants<\/a> in Sri Lanka and monkeys at a sanctuary in Guatemala. \u201cI have also rehabilitated <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/pets\/dogs\/how-an-injured-bird-helped-her-cope-with-grief\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">injured birds<\/a>. But this robin was different. He couldn\u2019t fly yet; he needed a mom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/health-and-wellness\/life-advice\/finding-life-purpose\/a-veterinarians-devotion-to-birds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">veterinarian friend<\/a> recommended that Kara feed the bird dabs of wet cat food using a tiny paintbrush. \u201cIt was like having a human baby,\u201d Kara says. \u201cI was feeding him every hour, changing the water, changing the grass and leaves in his box. It was a lot of work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After a week together, Kara started bringing Squeaker\u2014named for his talkative nature\u2014out to her yard, where he would hop in the grass. He needed to learn how to perch and fly. In the beginning, he was able to get only a few inches off the ground. He would practice inside by flying up each step of Kara\u2019s staircase. Soon his foot healed, and his wings grew strong enough to take him up to low branches in a tree. Kara always stayed close because several <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/pets\/cats\/the-good-cat-samaritans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cats prowled the neighborhood<\/a>. Within a few weeks she knew he was ready to spend the night outside in the tree.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat first night was such a milestone,\u201d Kara says. \u201cI was excited for him but sad he\u2019d be gone.\u201d In the morning, Kara heard chirping. She looked out to see Squeaker\u2019s head poking through the branches of the tree. \u201cHe was like, \u2018I\u2019m still here!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the next couple of weeks, every time Kara went outside Squeaker would fly over and land on her shoulder or head. He\u2019d even stand on her forehead while she sunbathed in the yard. When she went into the house, he chirped for her. And when she taught him how to dig for worms, he\u2019d stand on her foot\u2014always as close to his rescuer as possible. \u201cI really became his mom,\u201d she says. \u201cWe bonded. I loved this little creature.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One day, Squeaker decided it was time for him to explore on his own. He flew off, out of sight. Kara had known for some time that this day would come. She just hoped she had done enough to prepare the robin for the big world out there.<\/p>\n<p>One month later, Kara was outside with Cassie when Squeaker swooped down and landed on a branch right near her head. \u201cI was so happy to see him and to watch him flying so well,\u201d she says. \u201cI think he wanted to show me he was okay.\u201d They chirped back and forth for a few minutes, Kara holding back tears.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t think of the common bird as anything special, but Squeaker taught me so much with his love and his determination to recover. It was inspiring. It\u2019s a reminder of how connected we all are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Did you enjoy this story?
