LITTLE PAPITO UPDATE: ❤️🐓
Our little Papito had his leg rotation surgery today. It went well and I am hopeful it will be successful this time, as he is done growing. I am hoping we can pick him up on Friday or Saturday from Medical Center for Birds.

Thank you to all who donated to his surgery, we are still in need of donations. If you are able to donate to his surgery we would be very grateful. Links to PayPal and Venmo in comments

This handsome man is little Papito ❤️

Little Papito came to us at the end of March from Noah’s Ark Animal Have and Rescue, along with his sister Churro and brother Chicklet. Sadly, one of Papito’s legs was severely deformed, making it nearly impossible for him to move around, get comfortable, or even eat properly.

Thanks to your support, we were able to get him surgery to correct the deformity. At first, it looked like a huge success—but over the next few months, his leg slowly rotated back into the same horribe “L” shape it started in. 💔

Today, Ranch Dad is dropping Little Papito off at Medical Center for Birds for a second surgery. He’ll be having his procedure on Tuesday, and we’re hopeful this time it will give him the chance at a more mobile, pain-free life.

Please keep this sweet boy in your thoughts and prayers as he heads into surgery again. He deserves every chance to live a comfortable, happy life. 🙏❤️

If you are able to donate to Little Papito’s surgery, we would really appreciate the help. All donations are tax deductible ❤️

Texas 💔
Our hearts and prayers are with everyone affected by the devastating floods in Texas. We can’t begin to imagine the pain and loss so many families are facing. May God bless the families of the children from Camp Mystic, and protect all the first responders, volunteers, and helpers on the ground. ❤️🙏

Favorite is Home ❤️
Our precious Favorite is back home and resting after her skin cancer removal today at UC Davis.

The vets removed the visible cancer and treated the area with a laser to kill as many remaining cancer cells as possible. Favorite was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma—a type of cancer known for embedding microscopic cells deep into the skin and tissue. Unfortunately, this means the cancer may return, even with today’s treatment.

Favorite will be quarantined for the next two weeks while she recovers. She’ll be on pain medication, and we’ll apply a topical treatment to her surgical site.

Ranch Dad built her a cozy recovery space right in the middle of her normal enclosure, so she’s still surrounded by her goat friends. She’s already munching on hay (and cookies!) and using the bathroom like normal—two big wins after surgery! We’ll be keeping a very close eye on her healing t***y.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated to make this possible. Your love and support mean the world to us—and to Favorite. ❤️🙏

Quest Update ❤️

We know we’ve had a lot of medical cases lately, and we’ve asked for a lot of help. Your compassion and generosity have meant the world to us—🐾🙏

I heard from Oncology today and Quest has an appointment on July 16. Hopefully we can get some answers. We are just in a holding pattern until then. Quest is doing as well as can be expected. The meds are keeping him happy and comfortable while he continues to live in the pasture with his best friend Misha, protecting his herd. 🙏❤️

We wanted to give a HUGE shoutout to Ashley from CMF Refreshers for organizing the Quest Freshies fundraiser. Thanks to her hard work—and your purchases—we raised $524 for Quest’s cancer care! 🐶🎉

Ashley did this fundraiser purely out of love. She didn’t take a penny for herself, and we are so incredibly grateful for her kindness.

Please show her some love by following:

Ashley’s page CMF Refreshers

Her Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/cmfrefreshers

✨ If you bought a freshie, don’t forget to leave a positive review on her Etsy page—it’s a great way to help her out ❤️

Again, thank you all for your incredible support. Your kindness keeps us going. ❤️🐐🐓🐖🐾

Please Help If You Can 💔🐐

Our precious goat, Favorite, has cancer under her tail. We recently spotted a red bump and had our farm vet come out right away. She confirmed what we feared—it looked like cancer.

This morning, Ranch Dad took Favorite to UC Davis, where they officially diagnosed her. Because of the type of cancer, they’ll be using laser therapy (not cryotherapy) to treat it. She’s staying overnight and will have her procedure tomorrow morning, with hopes of coming home by noon.

The estimated cost for her treatment is $600. If you’re able to donate any amount to help cover her care, we would be so deeply grateful. Every dollar helps us give Favorite the chance to heal and continue living her happy sanctuary life. 💕

Favorite came to us 3.5 years ago with eight siblings after being discarded by a petting zoo that no longer wanted them. She’s been part of our family ever since—and now she needs our help more than ever.

Thank you all so much for your love and support. 🙏
