Baby Buffs to the Vet!
The baby buffs are at CSU being neutered, and although Yama is distracted by finally getting to be close with the big buffs, he misses his babies. The babies came to us on the heels of losing Yama’s brother Brahma, so taking his family away has some triggers for him. We are making sure he […]
BUFF POOL PARTY!
Just some dudes hanging out and living a good life. They don’t know they were rescued, or where other little boy buffaloes go when they grow up. They just know they have everything they love…good food, clean troughs, a big pool to soak and companions they love. But we acknowledge they could really love having […]
Our Friend Peepers
If we are unable to purchase the land next door, and have to look for a bigger space to move the sanctuary further away, we’ll be leaving behind some friends who can’t come with us. Peepers was a young hawk who became injured and showed up at the sanctuary a couple years ago, needing help. […]
HAPPY GOTCHA DAY TO VERA CHICKEN!
Happy Gotcha Day, Vera, you beautiful, perfect being! When Vera came to us six years ago after being abandoned in a parking lot, she was likely around 3-4 years old. This is the age where backyard chickens stop producing as many eggs and become less valuable to those who keep them. It’s heartbreaking to think […]
MATEO’S FRIEND
We know how lucky we got when we found Dr Novara at @urbanpawvet to help rehabilitate Mateo after surgery, and it’s been amazing to watch him relax and heal when she’s doing treatments. What we didn’t realize is Mateo would find a soulmate in Elia, who has come to help with both appointments. She seems to have […]

Rat Days of Summer
Today, this young wild fellow fell into a bucket, and struggled til he was ready to give up. When we found him he was weak and wobbly, so we dried him in the sun and helped get his circulation moving. Once warm and dry, he was ready to take off for new adventures. I’m feeling […]
WE NEED MORE SPACE!
WE NEED MORE SPACE! Old Jessie has a new game…she lays next to a high traffic area like the mineral bucket, and acts outraged that someone is “bothering” her while she tries to take a nap ???? Luckily, the goats who have known her for so many years know she’s all boof and no bite. […]
Picture Us Here!
Ok folks here it is! It’s officially been listed! See links in stories or bio! With this past year of the most violent weather and flooding we’ve ever seen in 150 years of Colorado history wreaking havoc on this little property, we are desperate to expand the sanctuary for the health and happiness of the […]
Mateo Meets Dr. Novara!
This video is everything I hope the world will become for cows, someday soon. Cows and every other animal, human or non-human, actually. Mateo had his first physical therapy appointment with the wonderful Dr. Novara at @urbanpawvet . We are now even more encouraged about his life ahead and all the future happiness we hope to fill […]
