Location: Inglewood Fizzgig’s owners had a very clucky hen, after the third time she’d displayed clucky behaviour, they decided to get her some fertilized Australorp eggs to sit on. Fizzgig is one of the chicks that hatched. Fizzgig’s family are not permitted to keep roosters in their suburban area, and desperately want to find this boy a loving home where he won’t become someone’s dinner. This young rooster gets along with his chicken friends, and is fairly comfortable around humans. He doesn’t particularly like to be picked up,…

Cleveland
Cleveland (goat) Arrived 6th March 2019 Just as twins kids Bonnie and Clyde had settled in, we received a call from a local pound. A little goat had come into their care, and they asked if we could give him a home. The next day, we introduced Cleveland to his new friends Bonnie and Clyde, and pair became a trio. We were unable to determine how old Cleveland was when he came into our care, but we guessed he would have been about 3 weeks old. He was…
Bonnie & Clyde
Bonnie & Clyde (goats) Arrived 18th February 2019 In mid February (2019) we were contacted by someone who had taken in two orphaned goat kids. As they didn’t have adequate space to keep the goats long term, they decided to look for somewhere safe for siblings Bonnie and Clyde to go. That same day the roughly one-week-old kids arrived at the sanctuary. But not before stopping in for a quick health check at our vets. Clyde was a little flat and was scouring. It wasn’t long until he…

Eli
Eli (pig) Arrived 22nd January 2019 On the 22nd of January 2019 we were contacted by a hobby farmer. Their sow had recently given birth, and one of the newborn piglets was unable to use his right rear leg properly. It was believed that Eli’s injury was due to his mother crushing him. As a result, he was struggling to compete with his siblings to feed. Eli was just a couple of hours old when we picked him up and brought him back to the sanctuary. He was…
Sheep in Need of a Loving Home
Location: Malaga These gorgeous sheep found themselves at the RSPCA back in May 2018, as their previous carer could no longer provide for them. Mary-Kate, Ashley, Miller and Michael were all born after coming into the RSPCA’s care. As there were rams at the property the originated from, some of the girls had arrived heavily pregnant. These sheep are very timid around humans, especially the two boys. It is important that they are rehomed with other members of the flock, so they must at least be rehomed in…
Hank
Hank (sheep) Arrived 5th December 2018 In late 2018 Hank was discovered homeless and wandering in bushland. He was all alone with no other sheep in sight. He was brought home by the woman who found him, and she offered him a loving home. Unfortunately her fences were not adequate enough to keep this spirited ram from escaping, and it soon became clear that Hank would have to move somewhere more secure. Originally his stay at Happy Hooves was to be temporary. Before rehoming he would first…
JT
JT (goat) Arrived 25th October 2018 This handsome little guy was impounded by Perth rangers. No one came forward to claim the young goat, which is so often the case. With nowhere for him to go, they contacted us to see if we had space to accommodate him. We are trying to reduce the animal intake here at the sanctuary, as our funds and resources can only be stretched so far. However we couldn’t leave JT to an uncertain fate, and soon after he arrived at here at his forever…
Marley
Marley (lamb) Arrived 6th September 2018 This gorgeous little boy was found by a couple working on a sheep station near Carnarvon, Western Australia. Marley was only about a week old and had been abandoned by his mother. The couple took him in and cared for the young lamb, but needed to find somewhere safe for Marley to go as they would soon be leaving the country. They contacted us, and we were happy to offer Marley a loving home. Marley formed a close bond with Spring,…
Bernie
Bernie (goat) Arrived 7th June 2018 Back in June 2018, when we were contacted by rangers about the pigs Lola and Bindi, they also mentioned that they had impounded a goat. We were told he was an old goat, “nothing special”, and he was due to be destroyed as no one had claimed him. As we couldn’t cater to another goat at this time, a dear friend of ours agreed to foster him for us while we searched for a loving home. When we collected Bernie, he was not…

These are the first piglets to ever be born at Happy Hooves. We never anticipated such an event, as we do not breed our animals or condone such activities (Lola and her friend Bindi arrived at Happy…
