We have a BIG vet day today! ❤️‍🩹

After weeks of tummy and p**ping problems, Cinnamon is finally going to get a surgery today to help correct the problem!

Long story short, scar tissue from the surgery she received as a tiny baby has caused part of her re**um to become too narrow, making it increasingly difficult for her to p**p. We have been keeping her very hydrated, providing enemas, and trying to encourage her to be as active as possible to help with digestion!

Unfortunately, it’s gotten to the point where the issue is getting worse instead of better ( it should be naturally stretching out as she grows but is not). Our brave unicorn princess will need another surgery today to repair it 💖

We’re always nervous about surgery, but we’re also incredibly relieved to understand what has been causing her discomfort and to finally have a plan to help her feel better!

Cinnamon has already overcome so much in her short life, and we know she’ll face this next challenge with the same strength, sweetness, and determination she brings to everything 🦄🩷🐷

We also have a few other major procedures happening today. Newest rescue Sebastian will be getting his neuter so he is one step closer to being out with the goat heard!

One of the cows, Rosie, has had an ongoing limp and OCD fracture which we have been managing conservatively. However recently her mobility has decreased quite a bit and she seems to now have an issue with her front leg as well. Our hoof trimmer Mike will be coming to do cow nails and after the visit when rose in the the shoot we plan to get lots of imaging and try to come up with the best plan to help her get back to her normal 💖

Barbie, one of the Idaho pigs, will be getting a lump removed and tested. Firecracker will be getting a re-check for his back injury. Flounder will be getting a full work up due to some recent p**p and mobility changes. And a couple other little things like always 😂

Please keep everyone in your thoughts today, it’s going to be a very long day and night but we will update on stories as much as we can and will be trying to go live Wednesday or Thursday night this week 🫶🫶

Sherman’s new orthotics from Bionic Pets arrived! Helping Sherman with his mobility while looking back at just how mobile he was seemed almost sad for a moment. But then we quickly remembered that making sure the animals live a WHOLE life is the goal of sanctuary. Aging is part of that, I know we are all a little older and more sore since raising Sherm ❤️.

Pasley was returned to shelter for “not being good with other pigs”. When we met her it was clear she had recently given birth to a littler of piglets, she was tiny, underweight, and untrustworthy of humans (rightfully so!)

We didn’t have any information on where her piglets went but we knew we could help give her the second chance at a life she deserved! ♥️

Now she spends her days exploring and grazing with all her pig friends and running up to great you and to beg for snacks! Thank you for helping make second chances like Pasley’s possible 🫶🫶

The face of a pig who has kept us VERY busy this week!!

Sorry we have been a little MIA online the last few days! Miss cinnamon has been having on and off p**ping issues again, we even had to drive her up to LA for an exam late last week. She is stable and eating but is still having issues straining and getting all her p**ps out! Dr.Rosen will be out again soon to do another exam but in the meantime she has had round the clock babysitters/ p**p watchers! 😂

We will be live later today to name the new rescue! We will see you around 6 💖

New segment… lessons we’ve learned over the last 10 years 🤦‍♀️😂

08/13/2026

We’ve spent the last couple of weeks talking about the promise we made 10 years ago, and then right in the middle of celebrating it, another little goat needed us to make that promise to him!

Meet the newest member of the Farm Animal Refuge family! He is a one year old Nubian goat who has actually been growing up close by in our own little town!

For the past month or two, we’ve heard a goat yelling right around sunset. Since we are very used to goats and their voices, we recognized this yell sounded a little stressed! Recently the yells had gotten louder and we could start to tell what direction it was coming from!

We eventually learned were he was living and were able to find out what was going on. His prior owner had 3 goats originally but got rid of two recently. Leaving only this sweet boy alone all day and at night without shelter.

Monday evening we were able to communicate with his owners and they agreed to release him into our care. 🤍

He will never have to cry alone in the dark again. We will never have to finish tucking in the animals here into bed just to worry about him and his cry’s in the distance!

From now on, his nights will be spent safely tucked inside a barn. His days will be filled with goat friends, enrichment, love, and the freedom to live the life every goat deserves!

Welcome to the FARmily sweet boy! Your new life starts now 💖💖
