Donate to Our Peepers!
Sprite is lucky to be alive. And that’s truly heartbreaking, because Sprite has only been on this planet for 7 weeks. Earlier this month, Sprite huddled in a crate, surrounded by the screams of her flockmates. She had no water or food, no protection from the elements. Can you imagine how terrified she must have […]

Meet the Newest Piglets!

Farm Animal Refuge (FAR) reached out for help. The mother and several piglets had been adopted and FAR wanted to ensure […]
Patagonia Needs Help
If you follow us on social media, you might have seen the news that one of our beloved birds, Malachite, passed away. He lived 7 years longer than he “should” have.
