Thank you Sandy Lawrence for sponsoring Cappy, the Elwa Bridge Escaping Llama, and "Kracken".

Cappy came from a horrible abandonment on Edgewood Drive over 10 years ago where a herd of llamas were left, two of which, mom and cria, were shot.

A Quilcene rescue came to load up the remaining llamas and Cappy couldn't be caught.

Sandy bought the property and inherited Cappy.

Several years ago, Cappy decided he wanted to go on a walk about and ended across the Elwa Bridge. Evading capture before, we knew he would be a tough catch...
Search out "Cappy" on our page to see the rest of the story.

Thank you Jennifer LaFoe for Sponsoring mother and daughter Lui-Ahn & Ayana allowing them to stay together.

Lui-Ahn has the "Crippling Disease Rickets" which severally affected her bone development. She didnt recieve vitamin D as a cria.

Ayana is adoptable and would've been seperated from her baby. Because Jennifer sponsored them both, they can stay together.

Now they roam the 21 acres together. Lui-ahn without specialty care, couldn't be adopted.

Assuming makes just a disaster sometimes but I believe education is the cure!!

I was questioned why Quatro can't be adopted and it would seem like "Normal Animal Husbandry" to care for his special needs.

"I probably wouldn't be caring for 20+ animals all sick or with disabilities if there weren't more "Capabale" homes willing to manage conditions where people need to continually have vets coming out, checking progression, prescribing medications for pain and or inflammation, toe trimming of 14 toes which some of them are only connected by skin, and can tear if the animal pulls back really hard.

He can catch one of those toes on something and tear them off if he fights it. Then we have another issue.

I think the hardest part is making sure he is happy, getting constant medical care, and letting him live a quality life in the best scenario however long that is.

Most people do not have the time, financial ability, the heart to watch his life play out with unknowns.

In my 13 years of doing this, I can count on one hand how many people I've known that kept animals with progressing disabilities (while maintaining quality of life) vs either putting them down or surrendering them.

Let me be clear, there is a big difference in keeping an animal with a strong Quality of life vs one without. Keeping an animal alive with no quality of life, who is in pain, not eating, who can't walk, I believe is inhumane.

For this reason, we have established a sponsorship program for animals that need "Not Normal" husbandry techniques and or skills to offset the costs of ensuring these guys the absolute best, instead of someone saying, Oh we will take care of all these things, and we end up re-rescuing them or hearing they died due to non quality care. That is a decision I would prefer not to have happen.

Only 1 farm has ever offered adopting medically needy animals, who has the resources, the love, and the time to care for special needs animals. Debianne Profitt in Port Orchard.

THANK YOU MARRY MUSE for Sponsoring Quatro. We are super excited to have you in his journey. Xoxoxoxo

QUATRO NEEDS A SPONSOR TO STAY ONSITE DUE TO HIS BIRTH DEFECT!

4 toes instead of two, on his front feet, 3 toes on his back feet.

Quatro suffers from a genetic disorder know as polydactyl.

His mom is from the sherriff assisted 28 llama rescue in Ellensburg in 2024. Quatro was born onsite with 14 toes instead of 8.

He will not be able to be adopted and will need special attention to his feet. At his young age, his front pasturns have started to fall and he may need medical help in the future depending on pain level.

We will continue ongoing care if needed with our Vet Melissa Board.

Sponsorship will provide board for him for his continued stay. $80 per month
