Hi friends. Help needed for Moon

Moon is a special needs piggy who suffers from seizures. He has been on anti-seizure meds for years now but because of this he has to have a yearly visit to his vet. That appt is tomorrow, Friday 1-17-25.

With Danny’s unexpected emergency last week costing almost $800 and the day to day of making sure all the animals have what they need I desperately need help to cover Moons appt tomorrow. His visit usual runs between $400-$500 with the visit, labs, and meds. Would be very appreciative if you’d be able to help.

LINK IN BIO and as always. THANK YOU
-Nikki

JUNE BUG THEN AND NOW! 🥰

Hard to believe this is the same sweet piggy but it is. June Bug arrived in July of 2020 after animal control was contacted and the owner had to find her a new place to live.
I was sent photos and knew she needed us.
June Bug was extremely obese and suffered from being “fat blind” meaning that due to being overweight and the skin basically covering her eyes, she hadn’t seen her world in years. 😔

After proper nutrition exercise and a lot of trusting she was now in a safe home. She started to slowly loose the weight. I’ll never forget the first day she flopped over for a belly rub 🥰🥰 that was a good day.

June bug now shares space with George and enjoys life so much. I can’t hardly believe she’s the same girl that arrived all those years back!

I feel like this year has been one of the absolute worst for me. Both personally and with the rescue. I also feel that my posts ( not stories ) are always bad and for that, I’m sorry because this one is no different.

Friday morning I lost my sweet little Licorice. It was both unexpected and traumatic and all the things in between. She’s only been here for a couple years and was incredibly leary of people when she first arrived. But over the last year has settled in and would even let me pet her and by pet I mean let me scratch her back ☺️ I actually felt very special that she would allow this. She and Tatie became quite the pair and were the perfect size for one another. I know he feels her loss As does Mama. Licorice lived with Mama, Spanky ( who we said goodbye to earlier in the year ) Pinky and Boots. I feel so bad for Mama that she’s lost both her goat friends. Although not alone I know she misses Spanky who was her son and now Licorice.

If I’m being completely honest this year can just f**k right off ( apologies for the F bomb, well kind of ) but truly. I can’t even seem to catch my breath anymore.

I do all I can, more than most any of you know, to take care of these animals. To provide them with all I can and sometimes no matter the best efforts it doesn’t make a difference

I try to put a smile on my face, not cry, not get frustrated, mad, insert whatever but the truth is all of these emotions and whatever else you can think of hit me daily. Always amplified when something happens. I’m hopeful that next year will be better but truthfully that hope seems to dim by the minute.

RIP sweet girl and I’m so very sorry

To say this year has been hard would be an understatement.
Not since 2020 have we said goodbye to so many animals…and if I’m being completely honest, I feel numb most days. Aside from life just kicking me while I’m down, rescue life adds so much more of a kick. 😔

3 weeks ago this past Monday Barnabus started coughing. And I mean like a deep awful cough. It literally came out of nowhere. He was coughing up foam and it persisted throughout the entire night. I felt so incredibly bad for him.

After X-rays, an echocardiogram ( ultrasound of his heart ) and labs we were given the devastating news that he’s in heart failure 💔💔💔 Yesterday he was such a good boy as we placed a Holter monitor on him for 24 hours. A Holter monitor is basically a running EKG and will let us know if he’s having any arrhythmias.

So what’s next??? We immediately started him on medication 3 weeks ago and added some after he had his echocardiogram. Unfortunately, we have to do our best to keep him from running too much and being too active 😔 Don’t mistake this, he’s still going outside with me when I’m feeding and loves being outside, I just have to make sure he’s not overdoing it. The complete s**t part of this..the part that’s not fair. His doc says maybe 6-9 months that we have left with him. Of course I’m hoping he’s wrong but the truth is his heart isn’t good and the reality is our time is limited.

He only just turned 9 and although that’s technically a senior age for a dog his size I most certainly thought we’d have him another 2-4 years easy but I guess our sweet Deja needed him sooner than later ❤️

He’s not a hug and snuggle kind of dog but he definitely loves to be loved in his own way. And that’s just what we’ll be giving him until he and Deja are back together again.

Our piggies eat better than most people ☺️along with their breakfast and dinners that consist of veggies, spring mis lettuce and pig pellets they get hay for the day. The weekly cost for the veggies runs about $300. We’re home to 18 pigs. We most
certainly could use the donations to cover their food. If you’d like to donate please consider us as your rescue to help. Link is in our bio

Barnabas was so sick when he first arrived. 10 lbs under weight, horrible diarrhea for weeks, one of the worst cases of demodex mange I’ve seen, and mentally completely checked out. Spending most all his time in a crate that was to small and in a place where he was being neglected and clearly not properly cared for.

It took almost 1 year to physically fix him. But he still has lingering issues with his paws every now and again 😔
Although he’s much much better he is still a pup with aggressive behavior. But I do all I can to set him up for success. He listens so good and is never fair from my side. It was years, I mean years before we wagged his tail with happiness but he does now and it’s pretty dang rewarding

This sweet boy turns 9 this year and reminds me exactly why I do what I do. He loves his life here and enjoys each day with such happiness and zest 🥰

How It All Began

I’ve had the name “All Souls Animal Rescue” tucked away for the day when I could finally make my dream a reality. Then, in September, 2016, my husband and I purchased 15 acres and the rest is, as they say, history.

I met my husband late 2007, at which time he had zero animals. He quickly fell in love with my 2 dogs, Max and Faith, and 1 cat, Tatie (who thought he was actually a dog). Since then he has loved any sweet soul we’ve had the honor of calling ours. Fast forward to 2016 when we purchased our current home with 15 acres, fenced and cross fenced, a huge fenced garden, arena to ride our horses, thousands of miles of trail just across the street for me to ride, and a small barn by the house. It was as if someone pulled that straight from my dreams. It didn’t take long before we starting adding to our pet family.

Currently home to almost 40 animals, we hope to rescue more and provide a loving, safe, and forever home for animals in need.
