Pause and enjoy a simple moment with our safe and happy farm animals 🧡
We all know which category Pierre falls into 🤭
He may hog the hose, but Al knows hydration is key during these summer heat waves!
The Lake Fire continues nearby, but please rest assured that our sanctuary is safe and sound. While we remain unaffected by the flames, our thoughts are with everyone affected, and we extend our deepest gratitude to the courageous firefighters and first responders working tirelessly to protect our community.
Head to head, heart to heart. Delilah and Kali’s bond radiates warmth and trust. Research suggests that animals can sense human emotions and respond with empathy, deepening the bond between them.
Caution: Splash zone ahead!
George and Daisy love a refreshing shower, but Kali often finds herself caught in the crossfire! Judging by the mischievous glint in George’s eyes, we’re pretty sure he know’s exactly what he’s doing...
Just rescued!
Meet Scout, a ONE WEEK old Jersey bull calf, who just arrived here at MFAS! And as you can see, our volunteer Kali is already head over heels in love with him.
We recently received an email from someone named Scout, who was desperately trying to save a male calf she’d heard about at a dairy farm. She had contacted approximately 20 different sanctuaries/rescues but sadly they were all at capacity. While we felt that our cow family was full, we said YES, as the the little guy had no other options.
After many emails back and forth to coordinate his arrival, imagine our surprise when we discovered Scout had just turned 13 years old! Scout is passionate about animals and worked so diligently to save this calf, never giving up in her effort to find him a forever home. We decided to name the calf Scout in her honor! Together, the “Scouts” embody the power of perseverance and hope, reminding us that every act of kindness makes a difference.
Scout’s journey is just beginning! Join us on Scout’s journey as he grows and settles into life at MFAS. Stay tuned for updates and adorable moments with our newest addition.
Homer is receiving plenty of healthy treats as he recuperates from a recently diagnosed condition similar to “tennis elbow” in humans.
Nikki shared, “Our mini pig Homer began limping severely. Initially, we suspected a sprain from the muddy storms, but after an X-Ray, our vet discovered that Homer has developed arthritis in his elbow and has dysplasia where his bone didn’t form correctly.”
We got him started on a healthy weight loss diet as well as medication, and he is resting in our recovery area with his rooster buddy Barney by his side to keep him company.
Homer was our first pig to join MFAS! He was rescued from the Animal Control Shelter in Agoura Hills after being found as a stray in a field. He is such a gentle and clever pig who even sits for treats!
April Fools’ Day: when our roosters crow at jokes instead of dawn. Classic chicken humor at it’s finest!
Spring has sprung! Flowers are blooming, bees are buzzing, birds are chirping, Holly and Max need to get a room...🫣
All teasing aside, their undeniable bond and deep love for one another carries through all the seasons, reminding us that love knows no bounds.

Monday’s, am I right?
Frank is NOT in the mood today, but Tango being the ever-supporting friend, will help get him through.
Please note: This video was taken before Tango was admitted to the animal hospital for a sudden urinary blockage. He’s now under veterinary care and your donations help cover his treatment costs.
Please help support Tango’s recovery by donating to his care via the fundraiser on this post!
Noodles is totally NOT obsessed with belly rubs, and he definitely WON’T melt into a puddle of bliss when you give him love...just kidding! He is definitely obsessed and will absolutely melt 🤭
Fuzzy, being our lone sheep in a herd of goats, is a great sport in humoring Rusty’s playful attempts, but quickly loses interest and goes back to his sheepish ways!
Stay tuned for Fuzzy’s first introduction to our newest sheep! Any guesses on how Fuzzy will react to fellow sheep for the first time? Comment below!
We’ve all got that one friend who never misses an opportunity to make themselves heard. Ours is Roscoe! Anyone near our pigs is bound to hear his confident crows echoing through the pastures. He’s our daily reminder that confidence is key...and volume, apparently.
Cookie, Eve and Cotton move fast when Nikki shows up with the treat bucket!
Our newest sheep are settling into sanctuary life and becoming more comfortable every day. Cookie is still the most social, loving to lay her head in Nikki’s lap for a cuddle, while Eve and Cotton are a little more shy but always eager for a snack.

Our Star may be small, but oh, is he mighty! His crows ring out with such force, you’d think he’s ten times his size. Star is a Silver Seabright rooster, which is known for being one of the smallest chicken breeds and for their gentle and docile temperament.

Fiona says there’s no better feeling than the sun on your face after a rain storm!

When the scratches are just too good to resist, George will happily sprawl out at your feet! (Possibly butt-first 🤭)
Thank you Star for providing us with this hard evidence.
