Thank you to Frank (our hay guy!) who delivered 104 hay bales today!

This is just the start, as there are 990 bales on our order this year to keep everyone’s bellies full over the winter (and accommodate any new rescues needing help).

However, we need your help to keep the hay coming!

Thankfully, we’ve been able to pay our deposit and the amount delivered today, but there are still a lot of bales that the hay fund doesn’t cover yet - eek!

If you can donate, you can do so directly to our hay fund through the links below, at CanadaHelps.org, or via e-transfer to [email protected].

Every little bit helps!

And if you can't donate, please consider sharing this post to help spread the word about our sanctuary - maybe the next person who donates will be your friend!

👆See how close we are to our goal and help if you can.

Thanks to our summer student Judas, the birds now have a bunch of new perches to explore. Last night at dusk, Mr. Pink and Mr. T picked the one with the best view of the sky and settled in together.

These two didn’t arrive at the sanctuary together, but they’ve been slowly getting to know each other. Watching them share a perch and quietly take in the evening felt like one of those small, sweet wins we get to witness around here.

Moments like this are a good reminder of what sanctuary life is really about—space, safety, and the time it takes for unlikely friendships to form.

Milhouse has discovered the scratching brush Judas installed 🥰.

My deer 🦌 friend was back around the compost pile this morning. He’s often hanging out in the lower (future) pasture after crossing through the woods. I’ve even spotted him using the trail that Judas and Erik blazed from one section of the sanctuary to another. Did you know that Lily's Place Animal Sanctuary has been certified as a Wildlife-friendly Habitat by the Canadian Wildlife Federation? It sure is peaceful living in harmony with so many species.

It’s $5 Friday for Fancy Footwork for Josie!

At 11 years old, it’s time for Josie to get the support she needs to do all the fancy footwork her heart desires!

To protect Josie's joints, ease the strain on her legs, and give her the freedom to move with greater comfort, she's having custom leg supports made, just like the ones that made such a difference for little Rosie.

We're raising money for both front leg braces so Josie can live her best life here at the sanctuary.

The braces have arrived (the purple ones in the second photo), so now we need to settle this bill by getting it paid off. We’re just over halfway to having her braces covered. Can you help get us to 100%?

Or on the CanadaHelps website.

🥳 Exciting news! Gladys now has a monthly sponsor! Thank you so much to Vegan Island Pantry for sponsoring Gladys! 🙌

For those new to us who haven’t been introduced to Gladys, she’s a very special duck who’s still recovering from neglect.

Gladys arrived here recently after being rescued by Animal Protection Reform (PEI) along with Aunt Viola.

Gladys is working on growing her feathers back — she currently doesn’t have enough wing feathers to get herself in and out of the duck pool without the support of ramps (though she’s learned to navigate those well).

She’s also learned to navigate all sorts of things here after being trapped in a cage for who knows how long. Now, she wanders around with several feathered friends she’s made here and has a favourite napping spot in the tall grass and shade near Rosie, Bob, and Josie’s place.

Thank you again to Vegan Island Pantry for sponsoring lovely and sweet Gladys!

THANK YOU, The Eric S. Margolis Foundation!

📸 This is the spot where lives will change.

I’m holding the biggest cheque we've ever received, both in size and in amount!

What you see here is a transformational gift from the Eric S. Margolis Foundation to fund additional pasture fencing at Lily’s Place Animal Sanctuary.

Expanding our pasture space will enable us to continue providing permanent, peaceful homes to farm animals rescued from abandonment, neglect, or cruelty.

Thank you, Eric S. Margolis Foundation, for believing in our vision for a peaceful world where the lives of farmed animals are cherished and free from harm.

___🌱🐑🌱______

To my fellow animal advocates: I know there's a lot of cruelty and hate out there (towards and among all species), but don't lose hope. There truly is kindness in the world; compassion is alive and well! Some days we need to look a little harder to find it, but today isn't one of those days! Thank you, Eric S. Margolis Foundation!
