Libby Lou's Safe Haven

We are a 501(c)3 vegan microsanctuary for cows and friends. After my parents passed away, I was emotionally lost. To thank her, I founded Libby Lou's Safe Haven!

I had tremendous support from friends and family but my first cow, Libby Lou, healed a part of my soul that no human could touch. We are a microsanctuary for cows and friends, striving to become a resource for our community to help those who have been abused, neglected, have special needs or uncertain futures. We also invite conversations about compassion. We are open by appointment only! Sundays only. 11:00am-2:00pm

We cannot accommodate drop-in visitors. We kindly request a suggested donation of $50 per adult and $25 per child. This is just a suggestion, not a fee. Please see our website for more info on visiting. http://libbyloussafehaven.com

Spent a wonderful afternoon with great friends at The Retreat Sanctuary in Kent, UK. Got to meet a kind lady who rehabilitates hedgehogs. These two babies are 5 weeks old and I got to hold one! Not an opportunity I get in CA. Thank you .theretreat for making this possible. xx

If you’ve never seen a moo hoof trim, it’s very different than what horses and donkeys get. Moos have to be led into a squeeze chute connected to a truck then rotated off of their feet to get their hooves sanded. Auggie Norman the brave!

Huge thanks to Michael DeVries and son for arranging to stop by here on their way to NorCal. We got all 10 done in 2 and 1/2 hours! Mike was our farrier in San Diego and he is the best. He treats them with patience and kindness. Mary got very nervous and was avoiding the chute, but Mike didn’t get mad at her and we got her in.

Like most things, I was running behind getting their feet done but now we are back on schedule and going to stay there. Thank you Mike! 🙏

Yesterday was a good day. The heat finally broke and it feels like Fall. Cows got dewormed then relaxed in the pasture. Tomorrow they all get a pedicure. We’re grateful for little things like good days! 🙏

Ugh the t-shirt scammers are at it again with sanctuaries and this time, Libby Lou’s. I’m very sorry people are getting tagged in scammer sales with our logo on the shirt. We are absolutely not affiliated with these idiots.

We have merch but do not sell online. If you want a shirt or stickers, reach out to me and I will send. If it doesn’t go thru me, it’s 100% a scam.

They’ve been blocked and reported.
