Happy from the lovely, charming and cuddly Viz! She was an outdoor cat living off the land when we purchased the farm. It didn’t take long for her to recognize a warm safe home… and the rest is history! 🐈‍⬛💝

Happy from Atticus! 😛 He was abandoned in the cold snows of winter 2019, sick and starving. We took him in, healed his wounds and he’s been enjoying life ever since! 🐈‍⬛💚

We are heartbroken to share the unexpected passing of our beloved cat Toblerone. 💔🌈 He developed a fast growing cancerous tumor that burst. The emergency vet tried to operate but was not successful. We are devastated to lose such a friendly sweet funny mischievous cat who was loved by all. Rest in Peace Toblerone - always in our hearts. 💚🐈‍⬛

Baby it’s cold outside… 4 degrees cold! ❄️ Dolly took a quick turn around the yard then deployed her helicopter ears straight back to the warm house! 🐶⛄️💙

It’s featuring Gibson! He was found outside last summer as an orphan kitten. His rescuers had him vetted but thought better of releasing a lone kitten with winter weather approaching… so he found a home at The Lily Pond! 🐱💚

Whoa! Got snow?? ❄️ Big storm last night but all the animals are safe and well. ☃️

Still snacking on holiday treats! 🐶🍖❤️

Throwback to this time last year - our Thoroughbred ex-racehorse Waverly in the first snow of the season. This video was so popular we had to share it again! 🐴❄️🩵

Kingsley is happily tearing up the Christmas tree… his Christmas tree stuffy toy! Thank you to the Martino family for this thoughtful gift! 🐶🎄❤️

Throwback to Paddy’s arrival at The Lily Pond, romping through the paddock! ☘️🐎💚

Our rambunctious boy Wyatt had a training session with Jared Renzi thanks to his sponsor Tracey Rostron. Jared worked to teach Wyatt healthy boundaries around personal space, which is important for safety. Wyatt’s a quick learner and the session went so well! 🐎💚

“Can I help?? I’m helpful. Please can I help??” Super Tuesday is super helpful with chores…when treats are involved. 😂🐴💚

Weekend Vibes! Happy #friyay from Coco! 🐶🚗❤️

Wishing our friend and volunteer Malea a very happy birthday!! 🥳🎂 She wanted to spend her special day at The Lily Pond! Friends and family gathered for a day of fun, food and celebration. The animals were thrilled with all the attention and affection! 🎊🐾

Greetings from Trooper, Max and Moon! All three of these handsome seniors were saved from the slaughter pipeline now living their best lives at The Lily Pond. 🐎💚

Good morning from Moon! ☀️🐴🌙 A former lesson horse at a local college, he was injured and sent to auction where a kill buyer purchased him. Thankfully, a local woman witnessed it and bought him from the kill buyer. She rehabilitated him and now he has a forever home here at The Lily Pond! 🐎

Our beautiful #ottb mare Waverly and her bestie Dutch Treat coming over to wish you a happy Wednesday! Dutch is a Thoroughbred-Quarter horse cross and competed in events. Permanent Wave is a registered Thoroughbred who raced the tracks in 2012. 🐎💚🐎
