The Ravens Nest Rescue Farm and Sanctuary

The Ravens Nest Rescue Farm and Sanctuary We are a non-profit farm rescue and sanctuary.
(2)

We are closed to the public right now due to Covid, but tax deductible donations or lending labor skills are always needed, especially now for major repairs to our outbuildings.

04/05/2023

Our sanctuary has been shuttered since the pandemic and we have moved from Bucks County, Pennsylvania to the Catskill mountains in Upstate New York, approximately four hours away from the old location.

I still field several phone calls a week,  and if we can help, we certainly will, even if it’s over with a referral or advice on how to handle the problem so that you may be able to keep your animal.

We are over-full with roosters at the moment and suggest you search the different groups in your area on backyard chickens. They are held very helpful with advice and many are willing to take a rooster to guard their flock or addition to a breeding pair. 
Please, check your local ordinances before you choose to bring farm animals into your neighborhood. Most of the animals that we have taken in are either as the result of impulsive purchases for children that are quickly discarded once the interest is lost, or because the town or city has complained and is requiring you to remove the animals.

So please think carefully and do your research before you bring home a non-typical pet in a suburban or city location. 

Surprisingly, even rural townships have regulations on what type of farm animals are permitted and there are rules about space, distance from other properties, etc.

So please do your research first. I am glad to answer any questions and be as helpful as I can, but again, we are now in the Catskill mountains of New York. 
We are registered 501(c)  nonprofit charity, and we were rely on donations.  Please don’t ask us to purchase the animal you want to Rehome.

Friday, December 4th we will be officially opening our Pet Pantry!

At our Langhorne Food Pantry, we will be offering wet and dry food for dogs and cats who belong to families in need.

This has been a dream for many of our staff members and we are so thankful for the generous donations from community partners that have made this possible. Thank you 🐶💙🐱

(And a big shout out to Kody, this sweet and gentle cuddle-bug. He started out as a foster pup with our volunteer coordinator, Regina, before her family decided to keep him forever.)

Lola was was our first rescue, 16 years ago. Someone left her in a carrier on the sidewalk in strawberry mansion, and we went and got her, because we was looking for an unofficial emotional support dog for Aaliyah. I can’t believe its been 3 years since she crossed the rainbow bridge. Aaliyah started writing her college essay on Lola, as the person who impacted Aaliyahs life most. 💜

Somebunny needs a dentist!

Bella is one of our Sanctuary animals and loves to sleep on top of her house (and eat it). Bunnies need lots of room! X-Pens are a much better alternative to cages. And she prefers a handmade cardboard hut to a fancy schmancy one with no rooftop view!

We also have a couple kitties needing fixing and every little bit helps us to help them.

To donate just go to https://www.paypal.me/ravensnestfarm. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

Please take a moment and vote for Lead The Way Dog Training For Top Bucks Dog Trainer.

Their humane, compassionate and positive training methods have been instrumental in saving the lives of hundreds of dogs at risk.

They provide training for the rescue dogs that come through numerous shelters, along with founding K9 Connection for service dogs and dogs at risk, as well as founding the Responsible Rehoming Coalition I manage. All of the adopted dogs you have seen me find homes for, like Brilee and Honey Bear, have LTW to thank.

I have never met a group of people so dedicated to BOTH sides of the leash. Please take a minute to show them some love and Vote for Lead the Way!

Sully, former President George H.W. Bush's service dog, lies next to Bush's casket ahead of national memorial services for Bush this week.

"Mission complete," Bush spokesperson Jim McGrath said when he posted the photo on Twitter tonight. https://nbcnews.to/2EaiMBp

As we move into colder months, all Pennsylvanians are reminded of our new laws regarding dog tethering in colder weather. In temperatures under 32 degrees, dogs may be tethered for no more than 30 minutes. Learn more about our new animal cruelty laws: on.pa.gov/2jwDB0A

Please keep this in mind when you consider giving a pet as a Christmas present. It’s a 10-15 year commitment for most dogs.

Dogs add so much richness to your life, but only when you adopt with your eyes wide open. Please play the tape all the way to the end....

Do you have the time to play with, train and exercise them?

Do you have the finances to cover not just food, but medical care which could run thousands of dollars in illness or emergency?

Who will care for them when you go away?

What will you do when you have to move or have a baby?

Who will care for them if you become ill or die?

How will you handle behavior issues? Especially puppy behavior issues? How are you going to feel when they chew your shoes or are too excitable, or p*e on your carpet?

These are just some of the questions to consider. Impulsively bringing a dog home rarely ends well for the dog.

Meet Bella, one of our Sanctuary animals. Because of the abuse she suffered before she came to us, she is terrified of people, making adoption unlikely. All the rescues that come to us "unadoptable" become our Sanctuary animals and live out the rest of their lives here. Whether it's a naked ferret with adrenal disease, or a bun like Bella that bucks and bites, we offer the love and care they deserve. 100% of every donation goes for housing, care, feeding and vetting. And of course, Bella IS adoptable, as long as you don't expect to turn a rabbit into a lap log!

It boggles the mind.

In the comments is the list of who voted for and the 10 who voted AGAINST this law protects animals from s*xual abuse. I can't imagine how those 10 can defend their position on this.

The state Senate has approved a bill designed to make it clear that be******ty is illegal in Louisiana. A law on the books prohibits "crimes against nature," but it also outlaws so-called so**my and was ruled unconstitutional in 2003.

Fact: the vast majority of rabbits given as Easter presents wind up in shelters or being sold as food. Please buy luscious, dark chocolate bunnies—not the real ones!

Hi! They call me Peaches cuz I'm so sweet! My mom lost her home and now I need to find a fur-real fur-ever family.

I've been professionally trained by Lead The Way Dog Training as you can see from my videos. My trainer says I listen so well because I don't have any pesky ear flaps to get in the way 🤣

I'm a laid back kind of girl and I would be happy just snuggling on the couch with you!

I would give anything to be the one and only four legged love of your life.

Please contact Responsible Rehoming Coordinator Lisa Rogers at 215.485.0021 or [email protected] for more info and an adoption application.

Congrats to LILLY on moving in with her forever family!! 💜

What is the Responsible Rehoming Program difference?

* Our dogs come into their new home professionally trained.

* Our dogs come vetted with vaccinations, spayed/neutered, microchipped.

* Our dogs move into the home with crate, harness, leash and food.

* Our dogs thrive in their new home because our move-in team trains the adopters how to integrate their new dog into the family in a way that ensures a safe and successful rehoming experience for all.

Our dogs come with 6 post adoption training classes to reinforce training skills and strengthen the bond between owner and pet.

We are so happy to welcome you to the Lead the Way Family. 💜

Please keep your pets safe tonight. I've put together a few graphics with strategies you can use to ease your dogs fear if fireworks. Mine wear Thundershirts. They even have a patch built right in for you to apply calming essential oils to. You can get thunder shirts on Amazon/any pet store. Or follow the graphic below to make your own right now! We make sure they have a safe enclosed space, diffuse calming oils and stay close to them. Cuddling them when they are afraid does not reinforce the fear. That's a myth. When you're afraid you want to feel safe. So do they.

They call me Sugar because I’m the sweetest, most adora-bull pup you’ll ever meet!! I am SO ready to create a lifetime of Christmas memories with my new family.

Want to snuggle on the couch and watch a movie? Go for a drive and walk in the woods? Play tug and chase balls? I love all those things and can’t wait to be the cuddle-buddy you've always wanted.

I'm a solid, love-a-bull 55 pound lapdog. You will always know how much I love you. I love to give kisses, and play like a bully does. My favorite pastime is to cozy up on the couch while you play video games or chill and binge-watch Netflix.

I'm only 4, and had a perfect family for the first half of my life, surrounded by lots of humans, dogs, cats, my favorite children and their friends!! I was always a good girl, but my family could no longer care for me (the human world is so complicated)

Luckily, Amy took me in since we were part of the Lead The Way community for our training and petcare. And because I work with the best trainers, I'm a pro at staying in my room while no one is home, and to sleep. I walk perfectly on my leash and harness, and have passed both my Canine Good Citizen and Community Canine Practice Tests. When you become my forever family, we can take the certifications together.

When I sat on Santa's lap, I told him all I wanted was for someone special to take me home real soon. Santa whispered in my ear that because I was on the Nice List, he was sure that my Christmas wish would come true. That you were wishing for me, just like I'm wishing for you.

URGENT: Meatball is a GREAT DOG. He needs a qualified foster/adopter to step up TODAY. He's a 58lb neutered, playful 9 mth old puppy, UTD on all shots, micro-chipped and no medical issues. He is good with other dogs, and doesn't seem to like cats. He comes with everything he needs including crate, harness, leash, accessories and will sponsor food for foster.
