Big photo dump! Whew.

So much to say - we welcomed Rodney Rabbit Rescue 🐰 and are sharing a part of the barn with them. They are a wonderful organization that traps feral house rabbits in town, gets them the proper vet care, and rehomes them. They are amazing and it’s been fun to have them around. 🐇

We also welcomed some new roosters. 🐓Unfortunately we’ve had to turn so many down 😢 because we now have two big boys that don’t get along and need to be separated. So right now we can only have the two groups. 🐔

Lastly (also meaning she’s the very last animal we can take for a long while) but not least we brought home Gway. An older cow that was someone’s milk cow and pet and had nowhere to go when their person passed away. Shes a confident, sassy little one and we and the boys adore her. 🐮🩷

Look at that brand. Brands are torturous as it is but his is huge! Can you imagine inflicting that on anyone, let alone a baby? How have we normalized such cruelty…. 😞

Project from a few weekends ago. Cleaning out Olives old pen (she lives in the barn now) and putting up fence around our water hydrant and electrical panel. Needed to be years ago so it feels good to finally have it done! 😅

AND of course our winter helper extraordinaire Jen! Jen and her dog Rose have still been coming during the wintertime to help us feed. Phew. Not sure what I’d do without her. And Rose loves to run circles around the pups. 🐾🌹❤️

PS - our new bachelor pad, or rooster coop. ☺️

Visitors 🌞

We enjoyed having our board president, Jill, out for a few weeks at the end of last summer! She and the animals got to spend some time together and we were so thankful for her company. 🌻

Also one of my oldest friends, Erin, stopped by on her travels and it was so nice to see her. It’s weird how so much time goes by and yet you can pick up right where you left off. ❤️

Family visiting when they are in town. 🌷

And some recent regulars Melinda and Kelly. They have been coming to help out every Monday and I’m beyond grateful. Melinda works with Maddy, our shy mustang, to build her confidence and reinforce basics of being handled (absolutely needed for safety). Kelly is a rooster whisperer, or clucker, and she has been giving the boys lots of love. ❤️

And last but certainly not least - our Joann! She has given so much time, energy, and love to the sanctuary and the animals. They adore her company. Can you tell? 🪷

Winter photo dump. ❄️ I’ve gotten so bad at sharing!

We hardly had a winter here which was equally nice and terrifying. Ours was filled with a few new faces - nonhuman and human. We have some new volunteers, thank goodness, and three new residents. 🥰

Also pictured are our neighbors little goats that used to sneak over from time to time.

Other than that it was pretty low-key (knock on wood 🪵) which we very much appreciate. Hope everyone is having a good year so far! ❤️
