Remembering what a sad rescue this was....animal bones all over the property along with multiple abused and neglected animals across the property that the county in this area did not care to help. It was devastating to see, this pig Steven is carrying ended up having piglets shortly after the rescue. We rescued some pigs and waterfowl from this location and we still have the pigs here at our rescue years later. Thank you to those who appreciate the sacrifices we make to help animals in need, now these animals never have to worry about being unloved again! #animalrescue #rescuemission #texasnonprofit #pig #abandonedanimals #texasanimalrescue #texasanimalsanctuary #volunteer #neglect

Hey y'all.
Quick Update;
Life continues to life and if you've followed us for awhile you know struggles are nothing new to us.
Our truck finally committed suicide on our 2nd trip to our new property and we think threw a rod, (this is maybe a month after we got the truck out of the shop for almost $6k having the head gaskets rebuilt)- now it needs a motor and we are out of money. We left our truck at our new property after having it towed and Thankful we had Walter hauling with us to bring us back to Central Texas or we would be out so much more renting a vehicle (or even getting to a place to rent a vehicle as this is a rural area).
Anyways, since we couldn't get to a hotel we stayed in the house and can contest that the last owner insulated it very well and candle heat does work some....but sleeping in 26° weather wasn't the funniest thing I have ever done but not the worst either.
We were NOT prepared for our truck to die, I feel very sad about how much money we have put into this truck to be a solid vehicle for the rescue and now we are back to square one with not many options.
I made this video yesterday morning during the sun rise, I wanted to try and capture and explain some things that folks have been asking.
The property is paid for, I bought it so we did not have any mortgage to worry about and I wasn't spending thousands on interest with loans. I don't know many people that would use their inheritance and last dime to buy a property for their animal sanctuary but I did. You can look at our fundraisers and see we don't have tons of funds being donated but we need them- seriously.
If we are going to make this happen we NEED support, we NEED donations and we NEED volunteers.
Getting fencing, enclosures and shelters done is a MASSIVE EXPENSE and I financially can't do it all alone.
We need to ensure all shelters can withstand bad weather, we will need to purchase alot of materials and my stomach hurts just thinking about it all honestly, but it is wha
It feels like yesterday when we picked baby Cupid up, he's a big ol neutered boy now!!! His intake photo is in comments ♥️ #cupidthelamb #bottlebaby #petsheep #sanctuarypet #ram #ownersurrender #animalrescue
Archeus (Grey Brahaman Cow) & Holly (Blind Black Angus) are being very sweet to the snoozing Spirit (Brown Zebu) on a dog bed. ♥️
Archeus has been doing VERY well since the terrible Mother's Day storm that tore through our area earlier this year. Archeus had been hit in the head with huge hail and when I found him he was face down in a puddle of mud. He went through months of rehabilitation and thankfully has pulled through. And Holly, our blind Angus calf we saved from being shot will be with us one full year next week! ♥️🐄

Many animals around the rescue enjoy the dog beds to lounge around on, especially these brothers! They also love lifted beds and gravity swings! #enrichment #goat #rescuegoat #dogbed #animalrescue #nonprofit
Spike really enjoys swings apparently, HotRod is in the back towards the end of the video enjoying a tree. These 2 aren't usually in the backyard, but the rain gave them a free pass since we moved most of our backyard buddies elsewhere here on the farm for the storm. These are Fallow Deer, a domestic breed of deer that are sanctuary pets here. #fallowdeer #playtime #gravityswing #animalrescueandsanctuary #texasnonprofit #fallowbuck #petdeer

I took this last week and am just getting a chance to share, Champs progress from intake has been going as planned and we are very excited for Champ's future! I wish I took more videos of him the first few days to show how bad his condition was, he is proof that 'special' babies can make it. We now have 13 disabled pets and almost 200 animals that call our rescue home, please consider making a donation for their care and our big move to give the animals more space!!

This hen survived a raccoon attack and I paired her during her recovery with a lone pigeon we have and 3 months later, they have quite the bond.. 🥰
You can hear Hank the rescue dog breathing, our macaws talking, ducks quaking and our turkeys! Just in case you needed your fill of authentic farm rescue sounds and visuals ❤️ #oddanimalfriends #animals #rescuedpets #animalrescue
