Off The Table Farm Sanctuary

Look at baby boy Frederick! 😍 This video was sent Friday while enjoying the warmer weather with some outside time at the vet. How beautiful is it to see that little romp along with 2 flat hooves to the ground with no limp!!!!!! During the middle of January he was still having elevated temperatures and lungs looked good but still a little noisy, he was nebulized for close to 2 weeks and it did the trick. He maintains normal temps now and is sounding good, he is getting to be such a healthy big boy! I had to ask the big question, can they estimate a coming home time and......it could be in 2 to 3 weeks top! Dr Ellen would like to see 1 of the 4 sores to catch up. The last pictures sent I could not believe the difference from the last a few days prior. They continue to get smaller and smaller, he even has hair growth which we did not think would happen and they all have a gorgeous layer of skin and scabbing. This is just one story of a 2 week old bull calf with pneumonia, umbilical infection, contracted front legs, sores that grew large proudflesh, growth plate infections. Out of so many that don't get the chance. I hope he is seen as an example of importance and strength showing that all animals deserve a chance and not seen disposable, guided with love and with extra care and seen as someone not something, not an "it." Conquering all that comes his way. Oh sweet Frederick, thatta boy love. ❤️ #veganforhim #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #sanctuary #withusnotforus #someone #nodifference #friendsnotfood #compassionforall #worthy #ditchdairy

Frederick is officially done with his treatments and stay at UW! He did great, and his health is on track with a more normal temperature range and word today clear lungs. His friend Madeline from Lodi vet helped again with his road trip back to our vet where he will stay for health monitoring and his new routine of bandage changes. They set him up with a larger "palace" as the team calls it. And to hear the genuine happy from his primary vet and office team on the phone was just enough to give smiles for days. I don't get on updates as frequently with y'all and I for sure am behind on publicly giving recognition to the amazing generosity that has left me with so many words and speechless at the same time, tears of relief and heart beats of awe all for the kindness of strangers, friends and supporters of the sanctuary. You all know who you are and those that I am able to reach out to, the beautiful messages sent our way, all of it. Just wow. November Lodi bill has been paid off, half of this month has been paid all through donations, all for the wonderful people seeing and noticing Frederick. I love how everyone loves him, everyone sees him for the precious and deserving individual he is. So many have said there is just something about him, or gravitated to support his healing journey. He is a special boy no doubt. When the day arrives to see him run and play with no bandages, that will be a day like seeing a quadruple rainbow with glitter falling all through his air. He falls back and he gets ahead stronger everytime. So thank you everyone, we need all the support we can get for his pathway to that day and so far, so many have brought light to lead further through. We are just so grateful.. #teamfrederick #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #sanctuary #withusnotforus #someone #worthy #ditchdairy #friendsnotfood #grateful

Hey everyone, hope you all had a good holiday. Our latest update for Frederick is well, not so great. He is okay but this morning he didn't want to get up right away and spunky like his normal self, so with assistance his primary vet then noticed he had a slight limp with his right leg. She took his temperature and he had a high spiked fever so radiographs were next and what we definitely don't want to see is what was found. He has bone infection starting around his growth plate behind one problematic sore. He is just about in full recovery from pneumonia again on top of that. All of the antibiotics fighting so many infections he has had from his beginning of life. Frederick is absolutely a strong fighter at 15 weeks old already and he has conquered so much. But this could be serious and tomorrow morning he heads to UW. We are doing the most aggressive approach and that will be surgically debriding the infection from the bone. That will be sent for testing to know the exact bacteria and what he needs to fight any other possible infections. He may have resistance to certain antibiotics and this will help to know exactly what is and how to nail it. I will update tomorrow evening, please keep this sweet deserving boy in your thoughts and strong energy surrounding them. He has one heck of a squad behind him, supporting him and simply caring and loving him. He has come so far and we hope he keeps so extra strong to keep on keeping on. Video of him at home, just being and enjoying laying in the grass while eating it too because that's just what ya do. We love and miss you precious baby boy. ❤️ #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #withusnotforus #sanctuary #someone #nodifference #worthy #ditchdairy

Florence goodnight smooch! So like..I mean some 30's would've been nice to groove into the single digits and teens! Wowza Wisconsin you always keep us on our toes but everyone has adapted so well! Florence is waiting for her new jacket to arrive so she can have more outside time, she is a beautiful sprout outgrowing everything!. It was a week of go, go, go, sorry for going MIA but we're all good and so totally ready for summer!😂 Have a cozy night everyone!

Good morning from Frederick! Oh do we ever miss him so but we are so grateful for the love and care he is receiving at our vet clinic. And to receive videos and pictures his doctor sends mean so much. He is definitely on the healing path! ❤️

We're back! We had a wild week with everything along with friends and family so with that, Happy Monday! Enzo and Odin to start off the week with a simple clip of their friendship, family and bond. They're always there for each other, they all take care of each other, all with their gorgeous love for one another. When a small moment is taken to observe them for who they are, we can all learn so much from them. To be who they are, in sanctuary. This is what it's all about. I hope this brings a smile and a warm feeling of who they are independently and as family. Love, Compassion and Peace for all beings. ✨️💚✨️ #sanctuary #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #withusnotforus #nodifference #someone #compassionforall #friendsnotfood

Tails up! Florence and Frederick romp! Yesterday Frederick and I went to the vet for a check up on his sores, they just weren't looking right and he seemed to be feeling a little down with some temperature fluctuations. Come to find he had a lot of healthy tissue and proudflesh which was causing the sores to become larger and unable to heal correctly! So thanks to Dr Raul for scraping that off and now we're back on our way to healing again with a new routine and using sugardine!🤞 He had another radiograph done to be sure his joints were still clear and they are beautiful! Frederick may have had a rough start but look at him go, back in action and it's just so gorgeous to see. His sore has affected his range of motion physical therapy some but we will get that left foot back on track, he's a little fighter! And as for Florence, well she is just flourishing with her precious personality 💖 #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #sanctuary #nodifference #withusnotforus #someone #worthy #ditchdairy #friendsnotfood #compassionforall

The joy of family❤️ Mama Mavis, Jill, Sophia, Shirley, Elliott, John, Archie and Ziggy🐽x8 Always a wonderful visit, thank you for sharing Anna and Rachel! 💚 #family #potbellypigs #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #sanctuary #withusnotforus #nodifference

A little short of night loop time with Frederick and the best helper ever, Florence💖 If you have been with us awhile back to our time with the most dearest precious soul,✨️Eloise🌈 and her chiropractic care team Dr Jess and Angie they introduced me to this. We used it on her daily over multiple areas that were tight and painful sensitive areas. It helped with pain control, inflamation, circulation and loosening up those difficult areas in her spine and rear legs. And now I use it on Frederick day and night. Little 15 minute sessions. So we hang out, Florence does my hair and we just be ❤️ Goodnight everyone #ditchdairy #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #sanctuary #notyourmomnotyourmilk #someone #withusnotforus #nodifference #compassionforall #bethechange

After one full week at the vet, welcome home sweetheart!😍 Frederick taking his first frolic down the barn and what a difference from the day we left the dairy farm and went directly to our vet. His right foot has already improved so much and his left splint came off yesterday. We will be doing range of motion and slow stretching of his tendons, icing if needed, placement of his hoof flat training (basically the exercises we did with Odin when he was a baby) and a lot of walks! Last Monday you could just tell how in pain and not feeling well he was and today what a beautiful difference, simply our hearts are just filled for this bright and special boy. He will be able to be with Florence soon! And to our amazing vet team at Lodi Veterinary Care, we cannot express our thanks enough. All of the daily updates and all they did for Frederick with so much love and laughter enjoying his company. We thank you! #sanctuary #welcomehome #withusnotforus #ditchdairy #notyourmomnotyourmilk #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife #worthy #someone

Just Florence being perfect! That precious moo!!🥰 Everyday we have had better updates on sweet Frederick! He is still staying at the vet being monitored, receiving antibiotics, ultrasounds etc. BUT yesterday we had wonderful news!! The splint on his right leg is currently off as he is stepping down correctly with that hoof!!! Atta boy! His left is getting better but as he romps it still wants to knuckle so that splint is staying for now. He still has pneumonia and navel infection but all is clearing better and his temperature is on point now. Today he will be neutered while they have him sedated for more work done so all in one and recovery under the care of the wonderful vet team who are so on his side and obviously adore him. We are so thankful for them!! SO, $5 Friday we need you!! If able will you please help towards their care and Frederick's stay. This will be a very large unexpected but so very worth it vet bill. Because he is worth it all. Thank you in advance, we cannot wait to love on this dear boy and have him home! Hope to see you at Madison Vegan Fest and hope to all a great weekend!!
