Ava still needs financial help! She’s staying with a foster right now and will be getting her eye procedure in 2 weeks. Anything is appreciated

08/23/2024

***SENSITIVE CONTENT***

Ava is a 6 week old kitten! She was found by a Good Samaritan in a neighborhood in Camden, de. When she was found, Ava was covered in fleas and ticks, along with maggots.

It is suspected that Ava was abandoned by her mother due to her condition. Her eyes were so infected that her left one had already began to rupture and her right eye wasn't too far behind.

We've been treating Ava's eyes and upper respiratory symptoms since 3 weeks of age. Her nasal discharge and congestion has resolved but I don't think we can do much more for her eyes. Her vet plans to preform an enucleation on her left eye in the next week or so. If her right eye doesn't continue to heal she will remove it as well.

Ava has not had any vaccines yet due to her age and condition.

Ava is FIV/FLP negative

Ava has been dewormed 2 times and has had 1 dose of revolution + for kittens

Ava currently weighs 1.9 pounds

Ava is a great eater and is working on liter training

Ava will be looking for a home following her procedure!

The money raised will hopefully cover her eye procedure, vaccines, and spay!

As always, any little bit helps💜

Got to spend my birthday with Stewart! His new family had him castrated yesterday which meant lots of snuggles and “observation” today❤️

So fortunate that there are like minded people out there to adopt our rehabbed animals! So happy for stew and his new family. Couldn’t ask for a better way to spend my birthday!

I almost forgot! Minnie is a handmade stuffed animal now. If you’d like one reach out it to Jhm creations!!

Minnie was the inspiration for this collaboration with Open Arms Farm DE. 🩵🩵 oh how we love Minnie the blind cow 🩵🩵

07/21/2024

We said goodbye to Stewart today! He joined his forever herd with a good friend of mine. It’s always hard saying goodbye to these animals, especially after caring for them at their lowest. I know stew will have the best life with his new family (Kayla Secoy) and I’ll always have my Jhm creations Stewart stuffy to love on.

We love you Stewart! Forever and ever!❤️

YALLLLLLLL. This camera in the run-in catches me at my worst….every. single. time. Tonight Minnie and Mick were eating their hay, being good cows (for once), while I cleaned their area and slipped. Right on my face. Lost my glasses and all. I looked up at the camera to see if my husband was looking at me and he has the nerve to say “what are you doing?”

If you zoom in on Minnie she is looking (haha) right in my direction probably wondering why I was crying in her poopies💩💛

Bestie girl had lunch with me today! Gloria is the biggest BABY. Her horns are crazy and so are those eyes. I’ve said it a million times and I’ll keep saying it, this cow is the best thing that’s ever happened to me💜

Minnie was MUNCHING on our walk around the back pasture tonight. (Featuring our big trash pile from the previous owners💃🏼). The last picture was right after she decided to chomp the dirt, then it was time to head inside with her little brother mickyyyyy ❤️‍🔥

Minnie hasn’t gotten out much this week due to the heat. It stays about 15-20 degrees cooler in her run-in. We have things for her to engage in but she LOVES grassy time.🌱

07/07/2024

I have no idea how I got so lucky to have this opportunity to love these babies❤️ Gloria, Earl, Harvey, and Bart will be our last to come home in the fall🤞🏼 Until then they are keeping cool in the shade at The Little Farm!

These cows mean more to me than anything in this world. Everything we do is for them and their adopted siblings. If you’re interested in helping with their pasture please reach out to us! We will be starting the fund raising soon!

My shining star, Howie🫶🏼

He’s enjoying some hay this evening with his friends!

Happy 4th from some of the cutest babies in the USA🇺🇸♥️💙

06/29/2024

Thank you so much Jhm creations for this beautiful art work! If you’re interested in supporting a small business and our rescue please reach out! Jess may or may not be able to make us more of these!

We focus on livestock animals at Open Arms, but recently someone surrendered this little guy and his siblings to us!

Unfortunately, I lost all 3 of his litter mates in less then 48 hours BUT this little guy has done nothing but grow stronger. Baby Timmy is going on ONE WEEK of life!

He currently has some pretty bad eye discharge but we’ve been addressing that with a veterinarian and keeping him nice and clean. He’s getting milk every 2-4 hours (depending on what he tells me to do). His urine and f***l matter is spot on and he’s gaining weight each and every day.

Timmy will be available for adoption in 8-10 weeks with his first round of vaccines covered (hopefully by donations). We’d also LOVE to cover the cost of his neuter for his new owners!

If you’re interested in Timmy or know someone looking for a fighter keep this baby in mind! For now , baby Timmy will continue to wake me up bright and early and scream my whole 40 minute drive to work because I can’t hold him❤️

On tonights episode of the two blind cows….minnie got me from the front while mick, somehow, simultaneously got me from the back, lifting me into the air. I feel like an acrobat.

Thanks for making feeding time and chore time exciting✨💥

Happy Fathers Day to the bestest dad to all of our rescues! Tayler is co-owner/founder of Open Arms Farm. He helped build the rescue we have and has given these animals so much love and comfort. Even though he’s now stationed in Texas for 4 years we decided to keep our herd here in Delaware. He comes back to see us every 6-8 weeks❤️

06/14/2024

to when my babies were tiny!

05/25/2024

What a huge milestone for our rescue! It truly takes a village and we couldn’t have done it without all of the donations and help from family + friends.

Our blind cows Minnie and Mick are home at the rescue! They’ve had the privilege of growing up at The Little Farm in Camden, De. Minnie has lived in the same stall for over two years, she came home to the same farm after her stays at New Bolton, it’s been her home. I met Mick for the first time at The Little Farm after his 2 week stay at New Bolton, it’s all he’s ever known.

Even though the big cows (Gloria, Earl, Harvey, and Bart) will reside at The Little Farm for just a while longer we finally have OVER HALF the herd home for good and couldn’t be more grateful.

To Tricia Hawryluk, thank you for introducing this life to me and giving me every opportunity to save everything I could. Thank you for opening your barn up to us and allowing me to practice my passion every single day. Without the opportunities you’ve given Tayler and I we wouldn’t have any what we do. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and so do all of our babies!

Our next steps for Minnie and Mick is to get their pasture built! Right now they have a roomie run-in, I’ll continue to take them on walks for now! And paint! We need to paint their run-in!

For the big moos, I’ll continue to visit them everyday at lunch for some love! We are hoping to raise more money to build their pasture in the fall. For right now I know they are safe where they are!

Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. These animals are so lucky to have such a great support system ❤️

05/21/2024

Minnie and Micks run-in is coming along! Huge shout for all the help from family and friends! Still a day or so worth of work to do but we are getting somewhere!

Sadie and Stewart are even helping us clear all the leaves❤️

All of the stuff we do for these rescues comes right from our pockets! We’ve been fortunate enough to raise $800 to put towards this project!

If you’re able to send over a couple of dollars anything is appreciated!

Sweet baby Moby VS really mean, wants to kill me Moby!

When we first rescued Moby he was so sick with cryptosporidium that we waited to castrate him. 3 months turned into 6 months, then a year and now it’s finally time. My sweet baby Moby will hopefully be sweet again without his manhood!

05/17/2024

We decided to extend the offer to this Sunday as well! So many people have reached out looking for a spot! The 4pm has been booked ❤️

What a great first photo session at our rescue! We announced it last minute but boy was it a great turn out! Here are a few pictures from the day❤️

I had so much fun sharing our animals and their stories with these strangers. It meant so much to me. If you participated yesterday and still haven’t received pictures don’t worry they are coming! It takes a lot of work to go through and w**d out the “not so great” shots and then edit them.

Huge thank you to Frannie Louise photography for donating your time to help us raise money for our herd! We appreciate you😊

05/11/2024

We have gotten a few donations on Venmo and cash app along with a few people looking to donate scrap materials! Anything helps!

Minnie turns 2 years old on May 5th (tomorrow)! All we want for her birthday is to be able to bring her home, where she will live in sanctuary for the rest of her (hopefully) long long life.

Up until this point, Minnie and her brothers and sisters have been staying at a local farm that doubles as a mobile petting zoo. Last year we bought property to someday house our special herd and to continue to rescue/rehab other livestock critters. With the way the economy is we’ve quickly ran out of funding to build the perfect space for our members.

As many of you don’t know, my husband (and rescue partner) is in the Air Force. He’s currently stationed in Texas where he helps run a medical lab that serves other military members and their families. He’s able to come home and visit us for a week or so every 2-3 months. During his time home, we try our best to get as much done on our property as possible.

We decided to split our family up for the sake of the animals we have rescued and made a commitment too. These animals are our lives, they are our passion, and we wouldn’t be where we are today without each and every one of their stories.

Please help us get them home! Find all of the animals stories on our page.

Remember, every dollar helps, every like helps, every share HELPS!
