Many landscaping centers keep hardy outdoor bushes and trees in their pots year round, even during the cold winter months. These plants are often covered in berries, which are beneficial for wild animals when they are foraging for food. If you are planning to plant new berry-covered bushes in your garden this spring, consider buying now and leaving them outdoors in your garden. The birds will enjoy them, and you can often buy them at a discount.

When shopping for pet toys, there is no added health benefit to choosing organic instead of conventional cotton toys. However, there is the helpful knowledge that no harmful herbicides, fertilizers or pesticides were used to grow the cotton when you buy organic. Be sure to avoid toys made with PVC, which can be harmful to pets if they tear apart the toys and accidentally ingest small pieces. Look for natural rubber or recycled plastic toys at your local pet store.

Even if your lawn isn't the envy of your neighbors, you'll be a hero to small wild animals if you keep a brush pile of twigs, branches and rocks in a section of your yard. Animals and birds need places to bury, hide and be sheltered from chilling winds and winter storms, and a tangled web of natural brush provides needed nooks and crannies for them. Even keeping a pile of firewood in the yard can be a safe haven for many animals.
