We just about survived the storm, a sleepless night and some damage to fencing, pathways, one of the ducks houses, the pigs metal arc took off 😳 and the poly tunnel again! All the animals were fine which is the main worry, everything else can be repaired! Hopefully with only a few hours left it wont be too costly!

All day spent putting up a shelter for the Soay sheep and they are scared of it, wouldn’t even come for their dinner 😬

Stables complete! Just before dark the Boers settled into their new homes. This was such a big project and we are so lucky to have had help from so many amazing people who generously gave up their time to give these animals their well deserved new homes.

“Thank you to everyone who contributed to building the stables at the sanctuary. Your support and hard work have made a huge difference, and we couldn’t have done it without you!

Duck update: the enclosure is up, the ducks are safe from foxes, they have cosy warm houses inside a wire enclosure, surrounded by electric fencing! Just tidying up to complete with pathways and planting and then the pond! This is them having an afternoon nap.

Using our Doggy Daycare service keeps our Sanctuary going, please recommend us to your friends and family so we can continue to rescue abandoned and unwanted farm animals. Thank you ☺️

Everyone was hungry, still sweeping to be done, the place is a building site and this lot decided to run off! Their new enclosure can’t come soon enough! 😂

New ducks 🦆 yesterday we collected 7 ducks that had been dumped on a pond at a national trust property. Luckily they had been cared for by the residents, but were not suited to the surroundings as they are domestic ducks that cannot fly, this means they cannot escape predators so leaving them out in the wild is very risky and dangerous for them. Hopefully they can live a happy safe life now with our other ducks at the sanctuary. Thank you to the kind residents of Sprivers Horsemonden for taking such good care of the ducks and also donating a new Avery to the sanctuary.

Stable update: so Blitzen, Dancer and the Pygmy boys are in! It took a bit of convincing to get them in but I think they enjoyed their first night in the warm cosy beds. Just the Boers to go and then we can start to dismantle the old stables!
