Do you have some sewing skills and a few minutes to help save these poor little guys? Visit ifaw.org/australia/news/koalas-sew-need-you-summer for details. Please share if you feel you know of others who may want to help out. We have already seen rescued koalas coming into care in South Australia and Victoria during the recent devastating fires. Koalas with burns to their paws need to have them treated with burn cream and wrapped in bandages. They then need special cotton mittens to cover the dressings. All this needs changing daily so we’re asking if you can help us by sewing koala mittens – as many as they can before the fire season truly hits. Click here for a special pattern for a special pattern and make your mittens from clean 100% cotton. Old sheets, tea towels or cotton t-shirts are ideal. Each mitten takes only minutes to make, even if you are not an experienced sewer. Send your mittens to IFAW at 6 Belmore Street, Surry Hills 2010 and IFAWwill distribute them to vets and wildlife carers, throughout Australia, who treat koalas. takepart/sites/default/files/styles/landscape_main_image/public/koala_2.jpg?itok=ZXH66FfM
