We absolutely love it when our guests have unforgettable experiences with the animals during a tour! 🥰 Recently, Dani and Carrie came to visit, and Dani had a very special moment—she became the *first person* Billy Jean ever approached! Turns out, Dani is a huge goat lover (of course!). She even had the honor of giving Billy Jean a second name. She chose "Cupcake," inspired by Carrie’s cat, who also shares a sweet bond with her. We’re so glad we captured this heartwarming moment on video! 🐐💕

📢 **Life at Boo Boo Zoo – Just Another Busy Afternoon!**

There’s always so much happening at Boo Boo Zoo! We’re usually so busy taking care of animals that it can be hard to find time to share updates. Here are a few highlights from today:

🌿 A deer rescue in Kula! Moses, a deer who was entangled in vines and unable to walk, is now safe and healing here at the Refuge.
🌦️ The Macaws had a fun day outside with their favorite volunteer, Erin, eating snacks and soaking up some fresh air and sunshine.
🥚 Kamry and Jemma helped collect eggs around the property and spent some time with Mike the Goose and Special Boy the Rooster — two of their favorite farm friends!
🦌 We also welcomed another fawn from Kula. She had been caught in a fence, but she seemed calm and peaceful in Sylvan’s arms as she met her new deer family.

These small moments remind us why we’re so passionate about our work. 💚

Home isn't a place. It's a feeling.

It's the feeling of a warm body to lean on, the quiet purr of a friend, and the absolute certainty that you are safe. For these two sweethearts, who came to us with stories we may never fully know, they have found that feeling here at the Boo Boo Zoo.

But this deep, quiet healing doesn't happen overnight. It's built on a foundation of consistency. Consistent meals. Consistent medical care. A consistently safe and loving environment where they can let their guard down and learn to trust again.

That’s why monthly donors are the heart of our mission. Your recurring gift isn't just a donation; it's the very rhythm of our sanctuary. It's the promise that this safe space will be here for them tomorrow, and the month after that, and for every animal who will need us in the future.

You can be the reason they feel this safe. You can be their "home."
