Rest easy old girl <3 Lucy arrived with Mary (deceased), Jack (deceased), Minty (deceased) Julio,  Freckles, Kath and Kel.. They came from a…

Monaro (Moni)

Categories : Rainbow Bridge

Monaro (Pony) Arrived 5th December 2016 18th August 2017 – Sadly today we said goodbye to sweet Monaro. At an estimated 30 plus years old Monaro had lived a long life but it seems her age had caught up to her. Upon investigation vets discovered she had multiple issues with her stomach, liver, and intestines that were irreparable. Monaro will be greatly missed at the sanctuary, and in our hearts. This adorable little lady was rescued 7 years ago from a large abondoned property. Because she hadn’t had any human…

Ghleanna and Wilma (cows) Arrived 24 February 2017 These two beautiful cows have been part of a happy family for the past 10 years, living on a lovely property in the Perth hills. Their vegetarian carers love them dearly, and have always taken great care of them. But sadly, the family faced some very difficult challenges last year, and have had to sell their property and rehome their beloved Dexter’s. Ghleanna is 6 years old, and her lovely natured calf Wilma is 4. Ghleanna boasts a magnificent set of horns, as her previous carers thought…

Krusty (sheep). Arrived 1 January 2011 UPDATE: 2 May 2016 We are extremely sad to announce the passing of one of our original boys, Krusty. We loved you so much baby, and will never forget how you allowed us into your heart whilst you shunned all others. You chose us, and we have been blessed by your love. This is a video taken of Krusty 4 years ago, not long after he came to live with us. Prior to this he was an “aggressive sheep”. Krusty was no fool, he…

Precious Petal

Petal the lamb arrived 18 February 2015 This sweet little girl was rejected by her mum and so with nobody to raise her, the farmer was going to put her down.  However a kindly employee couldn’t stand the idea that this little life would be extinguished, and so she volunteered to take her on and try to find a good home for her.  We were contacted about Petal’s dilemma and we found a great home for her with some wonderful people, but unfortunately they could not take her on for…

Rose and Bud (lambs). Arrived 16 December 2014 These two lambs were surrendered to us by a lady who originally rescued them from being killed at birth, simply because they were born out of season.  The kind young woman was in Western Australia doing work experience involving animal sciences at a farm, she looked after the little babies until she had to return home to Ireland. She has surrendered the precious gifts that are Rose and Bud to us so we could continue caring for them and raising them in our unique “Happy…

Bess Arrived 8 October 2014 Introducing Bess – an older female sheep and our newest recruit who was found in bushland, heavy with wool and severely flyblown. Rescued by angels and brought to us on 8 October 2014. Those who found Bess had her treated at the vets and sheared, and now she’s come to us for ongoing wound management and a new life. She has fight in her, this one – kneecapping one of her saviours out of fear. So we’ve named her after a famous Aussie bushranger –…

UPDATE: 1/11/14 We are all very sad to report that our lovely boy Bruce has gone over the Rainbow Bridge. Bruce was finding it very hard to urinate, we were manually relieving his bladder for him and he wasn’t getting any better.  The vet preformed surgery on him and remove a urethra stone, unfortunately this was only a temporary fix and the same problems returned fairly quickly. Surgery was attempted again but we are sad to say dear Bruce died on the operating table.  We will always love you Bruce, you will be forever…

David

This is the story of David, the little sheep who faced a giant of an obstacle, and lived to tell the tale. On 16 September 2014, a little lamb was surrendered to us with a severe case of scours (diarrhoea) which his owners had tried in vain to treat.  Sadly however, he failed to improve so in a last ditch effort to save his life, they handed him over to us. It turned out that David’s problems were much bigger than just worms – he also had a very nasty…

George

George (pig): Arrived: 24 May 2014. Introducing the gorgeous and sweet-natured little pig called George.  The family that bought this little guy were not adequately informed about the destructive habits of pigs – it is very natural for a pig to dig great big holes (called “rooting”), a trait that is not well received in suburban gardens.  George’s new family didn’t know that he would soon turn their paved back yard into an excavation site – which meant they had to try to contain him in fenced off areas but…

Leela

Leela: Arrived 5 May 2014 This sweet and quiet-mannered Damara sheep was owned by a small hobby farmer when she developed a severe eye infection from a suspected injury.  The eye didn’t respond to the basic first aid provided by her owner, and quickly became very red, swollen and infected. Leela needed vet attention which her owner could not afford, and as she was a “farm animal”, her injury increased the likelihood of her meeting her end and becoming someone’s dinner.  However, luckily for Leela the farmer had a tender spot…

Categories : Charity Introductions

In 2012, my hubby (Ric) and I purchased an amazing property in the Perth Hills on 150 glorious acres of pasture and natural bushland.  The property is called “Kookaburra” and it is magical.. full of tranquil dams brimming with bird-life, majestic gums and imposing jarrahs, rolling pasture and leaf-strewn woodlands.  Rabbits have made a veritable “Watership Down” zone in amongst one of the Olive Tree groves, and kangaroos graze amongst the trees.  Native animal life is everywhere – the sense of peace is almost palpable on this earthly slice of…
