✨ Exciting news from Lucky Stars Sanctuary! We’re growing and planning big things for our new location. Now, we need your help to decide… Should Lucky Stars Sanctuary rescue Turkey?

Why Rescue Turkey?
Turkeys are commonly raised in factory farms under cruel conditions, with little to no quality of life. Their lifespan is limited due to genetic engineering and feeding on copious growth hormones, but we believe every life matters—including the often-overlooked turkeys. Rescuing them means giving these intelligent, social birds the chance to live a good quality of life while being ambassadors for their specifies and help us campaign for the abolishment of factory farms💚🦃
Should Lucky Stars offer sanctuary to turkeys in need? Share your thoughts with us!

Why Rescue Retired greyhounds?

Why Rescue Ex-racehorses?
Ex-racehorses often face a tragic end when their racing careers are over. Many are neglected, abandoned, or even sent to slaughter. At Lucky Stars Sanctuary, we believe these incredible animals deserve a loving retirement, free from the pressures of their past. 🏇💔

Slide 1: ✨ Exciting news from Lucky Stars Sanctuary! We’re growing and planning big things for our new location. Now, we need your help to decide… Should Lucky Stars Sanctuary rescue Donkeys?

Why Rescue Donkeys?
Donkeys are often overworked, neglected, or abandoned after years of hard labour. They are gentle, intelligent animals that deserve compassion and care. Lucky Stars Sanctuary could provide a loving forever home where donkeys can heal and thrive. 🐾💚

Why Rescue Camels?
Camels once played a vital role in transporting supplies across Australia’s harsh outback, but now they’re considered pests and are often slaughtered through aerial culling. 💔

Some of these camels are captured and forced into camel riding or racing, causing incredible suffering. These gentle giants deserve better.

At Lucky Stars Sanctuary, we want to provide a safe, loving space where camels can heal from trauma and live free from harm. 🌿💚

Should Lucky Stars rescue camels and give them the peaceful life they deserve? Let us know your thoughts! 🐪

✨ Exciting news from Lucky Stars Sanctuary! We’re growing and planning big things for our new location. Now, we need your help to decide… Should Lucky Stars Sanctuary rescue Brumbies?

Why Rescue Brumbies?
Brumbies are Australia’s wild horses, with a lineage dating back to the First Fleet. These horses played a critical role in Australia’s early history, yet today, we’ve decided they no longer belong in our national parks, where they’ve lived for over 200 years. 💔

Our heritage brumbies now face extinction as aerial culling is deemed a 'suitable' method by both the NSW and Victorian governments. These iconic horses deserve protection, not eradication.

At Lucky Stars Sanctuary, we could offer brumbies a safe place to live freely, preserving their legacy and giving them a second chance at life. 🐾💚
Should Lucky Stars help save brumbies from extinction?

Can you spot an injured kangaroo in this photo? Can you see an animal in pain, or a mother trying to care for her joey? Neither can we.

If you ever see a native animal hit by a car, please stop and contact your local rescue group immediately. Take a photo of the location, record GPS coordinates, and mark the spot if you can’t stay until help arrives.

Ending the life of a native animal is one of the most emotionally challenging tasks we face, but it’s sometimes necessary to end suffering and possibly save a joey.

Your help makes a huge difference. The quicker we can find an injured animal, the sooner we can act. Your efforts are deeply appreciated.

Why Rescue Bobby Calves? 🐾
Bobby calves are the dairy industry's tragic byproduct—male calves taken from their mothers just hours after birth because they can't produce milk. This separation causes immense trauma for the calves and their mothers, who often cry out for days, searching for their lost babies.

These calves face horrific conditions, sold for slaughter within days or left to suffer neglect. By rescuing bobby calves, we can offer them—and their mothers—the compassion they deserve, while raising awareness about their heartbreaking reality. 💔🐮

🌟 Meet Dwayne “The Rock”! 🌟

Dwayne came into our care after a heartbreaking accident, his mum was hit by a car. Fortunately, a kind-hearted passerby stopped, checked her pouch, and called Wildcare. That’s how this little fighter ended up with us.

We chose the name Dwayne because it perfectly fits both who he is now and the strong, resilient animal we know he will grow into. He’s already showing his tough spirit and determination, and we can’t wait to see him grow stronger every day!

Thank you to everyone who helps us care for animals like Dwayne, and special thanks to Wildcare for their amazing work in rescuing our precious wildlife. 💚

Today, we say farewell to our beloved Nancy, our blind sheep, who taught us so much about resilience and kindness. Despite losing her sight, Nancy never let that stop her from caring for her dearest yard friend, Gina. Watching Nancy over the years was a reminder that true strength isn’t in what you see, but how you live.

Caring for young animals is usually simple— they eagerly take their milk, sometimes giving us a little happy dance after. But old animals like Nancy, they’re different. As they age, their movements slow, and their joy becomes quieter, more subtle. Yet, our incredible volunteers never gave up on her. They stood by her, offering comfort and love as Nancy transitioned towards the end and across the rainbow bridge. I’m sure Kerrie is waiting for her on the other side. .

In sharing Nancy’s story over the past six months, I have encouraged visitors to reflect on the expectations we place on our friends. Do we value them only in their bright moments, when they’re full of joy and life? Do we value them only when they make us feel good? Or do we cherish them even more when they’re vulnerable, supporting them through their hardest times?

Nancy, thank you for being a true inspiration to our volunteers and visitors alike. Your journey with us has come to an end, but may your spirit fly free and dance like the young lamb you once were.

With the pending relocation on its way, we are coming up with ideas on how to make Lucky Stars Sanctuary bigger and better. We’ve realized just how strong our community is and how much help YOU have provided us during this difficult time.

This is why we want to know who you think we should save next. Australia is home to a myriad of animals from brumbies to wombats and turkeys. Who do you think we should provide our care to?

Keep an eye out on the next few posts as we delve deeper into each animal and how they are being mistreated by other members of society. Let’s bring them to our sanctuary✨

We love it when the community comes up with amazing ideas to help raise donations and awareness for a cause. This is why we are so proud and excited to announce that this year, has decided to dedicate her photography talents to capture some shots of our furry friends for the third edition of Tails of the World😍

Together with a group of other international pet photographers, they are going to publish a big coffee table book. It is going to feature hundreds of dogs photographed from around the world. The best part? All proceeds will be donated to charity!

Last year, they raised over US$65,000 and they hope to raise even more this year✨

If you are interested in applying and taking part, check the link in our bio to learn more about this amazing project.

We are so excited to see our furry friends in this year’s edition 😍😍

Our Story

Lucky Stars Sanctuary has been open since 2016, located 15 minutes from Canberra in the town of Bywong. The Sanctuary assists animals that are injured, neglected, surrendered or unwanted from unhealthy or unethical situations by providing them with treatment, rehabilitation and shelter. Lucky Stars also promotes ways to live kinder lives, and provides education on animal welfare and better food choices to all ages. The Sanctuary was founded by Kerrie Carroll and Yee Cheam in 2016, who thought that if there were another sanctuary in this world, there would be another safe place for animals to live. The Sanctuary is situated in an idyllic, peaceful bush setting on 24 acres, just outside the ACT border off the Federal Highway.

Why did you set up Lucky Stars Sanctuary?

It was always our dream to set up a sanctuary. Through our volunteer work with animals and completing wildlife courses we realised how great the need was for another sanctuary in the Canberra surrounds – sadly, because so many animals are abandoned, injured, misplaced or require urgent accommodation as their humans circumstances have changed.

What is different about Lucky Stars Sanctuary?
