November has been a rough month for funding yāall. Iām tired of asking for help and Iām sure everyone else is too. But thatās my most important jobācaring for these kiddos and making sure they are warm and have full bellies is my biggest priority. Iāve been living off ramen all week with no complaints because they will always come first. ā£ā£
We really need to close down the hay fundraiser before the 20th so that money will be included in our monthly deposit. We already owe the feed store over $2k and I canāt put anything else on our account. Please help us reach this goal today!!ā£ā£

Snuggling with my first horse love will always be my favorite way to start the day. What are some of your favorite rituals with the the animals in your life?šš©µā£ā£ #rescuehorse #horsesofinstagram #sanctuaryhorse
Iāve cried more in the past 24 hours than I can stand. Parker is comfortable in his stall but heās still unwilling to stand for more than a few minutes and it takes a lot of prompting to get him to do so. My poor baby is still mentally there but his body is failing him and itās breaking my heart. The grief is overwhelming and it seeps into every corner of my life. I canāt eat or sleep. I have terrible dreams about losing him. Nobody prepares you for the amount of loss and suffering you will experience in rescue and no matter how many times I go through it, each one feels like salt in a wound that will never heal. ā£
ā£
We have just a few days to see if his higher dose of meds will help him and then our vet will be out to discuss any other options. I am so scared of what that day might look like. We need your help to get through this. If youāre in a position to throw a few bucks his way, it would make a huge difference in alleviating the stress weāre under while we fight to save his life.ššā£

Penny is one lucky lady to have survived not only a drug bust and seizure of the property she was being kept on, but she was also being argued over by the neighbors for who would get to slaughter her in the coming days afterwards. Iām so grateful that someone reached out to me and I was able to pull together the wildest rescue mission ever and catch her just in time. Sheās earned a lifetime of apples and then some. We love you Penny pig!š©·š·ā£ā£#pig #rescuepig #pigsofinstagram #friendsnotfood #savedfromslaughter #pigsaspets
Wisp had his first churu today. Heās growing up so fast. Before I know it he will be going off to college.š„²š¤ ā£ā£#rescuekitten #kitten #meowdy #churu
Thomas really chose the sanctuary as his safe place and now I canāt imagine daily life without him. He will only let you pick him up if you hold him in this very awkward way. It never fails to put a smile on my face.š„¹š ā£ā£#rescuecat #cat #blackcat #blackcatsofinstagram

We took the largest hit ever this month is cancelled Patreon subscriptions and Iām scrambling to figure out what we are going to do. As of this morning we are down $975 and the numbers will keep updating throughout the day. This is devastating for our already small budget. A thousand dollars is two weeks worth of hay. Itās an emergency vet visit. Itās crucial funding that we cannot afford to lose. ā£
ā£
Please help us recover some of those losses. Sanctuary life is hard enough without the constant worry of how to pay the next bill. Donations have dropped so substantially over the last three years for even the largest organizations that I fear for the future of all nonprofits that care for animals. We cannot do this without you all!ā£
ā£
If you canāt afford to commit to a small monthly contribution, please consider making a one time donation to help us offset this massive loss.ā¤ļøāš©¹ā£

Parker will be 9 years old in just a few weeks. Penny will be 5. For large breed farm pigs this is unheard of outside of a sanctuary setting. Both of them are unbelievably lucky to be living a life full of friendship and never ending autumn apple snacks. This is the life I so desperately want for all farmed animals but especially for pigs. They are so incredibly intelligent and sensitive. More so than any animal Iāve ever met. More than most people too! ā£ā£I hope that someday everyone has the chance to meet a pig that will change the way they look at their meals. Loving a pig changed my life and made Morningside what it is today. For that I am forever in their debt.šš·šā£ā£#pig #pigsofinstagram #pigsdeservebetter #veganforthem
Wispy boy is starting to play and explore the bathroom and itās making my heart absolutely burst with joy. Iām definitely going to be late to my other job today because I cannot stop obsessing over him. Thank you so much to everyone whoās contributed to his vet bill. We have an appointment on Friday and Iāll keep everyone in the loop! Iām going to be adding a few things to our wishlist for him if anyone would like to send him a gift. The link can be found in our bio. š„¹ā¤ļøāš©¹ā£

This tiny angel was brought to the property but a neighbor last night after being found unresponsive and very sick. He is likely around 5 weeks old but is weighing in far below the normal range for that age. Heās already feeling much less crummy after getting cleaned up and started on antibiotics but itās going to be a long few weeks until heās healthy enough to be adoptable. ā£
ā£
I would love some help naming him and we could really use a hand covering his meds and ongoing care. Please lend a paw if you can and put your name suggestion in the note section of your donation! Letās get this tiny man all fixed up and ready to find his forever family.ā£

Itās Parkerās favorite season! We are now serving apples, pears and blackberries around the clock and he couldnāt be happier. I love seeing our senior big kids enjoying the beautiful fall weather and all of its snacks.šššā£ā£
We are now heading into some colder weather and need to stock up on extra bedding. We havenāt been raising any extra funds this month so I would be incredibly grateful if you could help us kick this off with a few dollars for the animals of Morningside. Letās keep everyone cozy!š§”ā£ā£ā£

Help save Marlieā¤ļøāš©¹
Marlie is having an emergency š©šØ ā£
ā£
Our sweet girl has been battling a calcium deficiency for the past year and the supplements sheās been on are no longer helping. Sheās now unable to stand and weāre at the emergency vet to see what options we have.ā£
ā£
Marlie was rescued by our dear friend @kittenxlady four years ago and has spent nearly her entire life here at Morningside with her best friends Charlie and Billie. Female birds have such a tough time due to the high rate of egg production that depletes their body of its natural calcium. This in turn pulls that calcium from their bones and creates many mobility issues. ā£
ā£
Iām hanging onto hope that she can bounce back from this and we need your help to get her the treatment she needs. Please consider sending a few bucks her way friends. Avian vet care is more expensive as itās considered exotic care. Thank you!ā¤ļøāš©¹šŖæā£
