At Rafiki's Rescue, we rehabilitate and give a loving, temporary home to all animals in need, but we have an emphasis on the special needs cases that most would find "undesirable." Special needs animals come in all shapes and forms and the conditions vary greatly. Simply put, a special needs animal is just one that needs a little more help or attention than your average one.
