We’d like to wish this lovely lady a very Happy Birthday! Victoria is such a valuable asset to Blackbird, and one of the most dedicated people I know. Victoria has been volunteering with Blackbird Ranch for years, she does so much behind the scenes to help our little organization out and she doesn’t get nearly the recognition that she deserves. Victoria has a heart full of compassion and generosity, and is one of my favorite humans. We are so lucky to have you on our team, Victoria, and we hope you have a wonderful birthday.

Our Thanksgiving merch is still available! This design features our very own Jack, the turkey, and is in remembrance of the 46 million turkeys who are killed each year in America, for this one
holiday.

All proceeds from this campaign will go towards purchasing Jack a new elevated feed bin, something he can eat from comfortably, but the two pigs who share his space can’t get in to.

Sweet little Dobby is struggling these days. At 15 years old, he has his share of health issues that are being managed. He can’t walk very far anymore, and each step is very slow, but he still enjoys getting outside and sniffing all the things. He’s been going on little outings to the park everyday, taking advantage of the weather before it turns frigid and snowy.

Our first set of freezer curtains were installed today on one of the pig houses. Our awesome volunteers, Justine and Kevin, are always so handy and are a huge help especially with special projects like this installation, which will directly improve the animals’ quality of life. These freezer curtains will assist in keeping the pigs warm over the winter by reducing heat loss thru their door. I stood inside their barn after the curtains were installed, and there’s a noticeable difference in temperature. Always curious, Fred was first to check out the new renovations. He made sure everything was up to pig code and gave it a big snout of approval.

It’s always fun to come across wildlife at the sanctuary. This little garter snake was probably less than 2 months old, and was a bit surprising to find out and about given the temperature has dropped considerably. Garter snakes hibernate during the winter here in Washington. Our volunteers Abby, Katherine, and Chloe were excited to meet this itty-bitty friend too!

How cute is Hank in his nest soaking up what little bit of sun we got between the rain and gloomy clouds?

Our sweet, brave Brayson is back home with his favorite person, Cheyanne. After his trip to the hospital, we were very relieved that he didn’t have an intestinal blockage or twist. It seems that he just had a large amount of gas buildup in his intestines and he wasn’t able to pass it, leaving him very uncomfortable. He seems to be better now, and is very happy to be back home. Cheyanne missed him greatly too, and she didn’t understand why he left so suddenly. The moment I unloaded him from the trailer, the two of them ran a few laps together around the pasture to celebrate their reunion and are once again inseparable.
❤️We’ve had some very unexpected, thoughtful, and generous donations sent our way to offset our large veterinary expenses we’ve incurred recently, and we are so very grateful. Thank you for the support, it means so much and lessens the burden for sure. 🙏

When your volunteers show up to work hard but the security team has other ideas. Lucy and Eleanor would be perfectly happy having someone hold their paws all day, every day. These girls love attention and meeting new volunteers, like Ben, who just started working with us and is already figuring out who is really in charge around here.

Check out our newest T-shirt fundraiser, the second design in our kindness campaign, featuring the footprints of Blackbird Ranch, and designed by our wonderful volunteer, Victoria. This motif comes in lots of different sizes and colors, and can also be featured on sweatshirts and tanks! 100% of the proceeds raised from this campaign will go toward replenishing our veterinary fund. Our veterinary expenses have been extremely high year. We’ve spent over $43,000 in the past 2 years, with over $32,000 of that from this year alone! For a small nonprofit organization, that hits hard, as you can imagine.
If you are an admirer of a more minimalistic design, with a positive message, consider purchasing a T-shirt to help the animals! We have lots of other designs available on our Bonfire shop too! The link to our merchandise is in our bio as well.
