Our Mission: To rescue, rehabilitate and give sanctuary to abused animals. Through the interaction with our animals people learn reverence for all life.

Emergency Calf Rescue

 

At a cattle ranch in California there was a mom and baby calf. The mom died of unknown causes and the baby was found trying to fend for himself. Another mom cow and her baby kind of took him in and adopted him. Then the other mom fell in a ravine and died also, leaving both babies orphaned, the first baby orphaned for the second time!

The baby cows are temporarily being housed in the breezeway of a horse barn at the cattle ranch.  We got a call today from a woman who boards her horse at a neighboring ranch.  She became aware of the two baby calves and has asked us for help in rescuing them.  We are unclear as to why the moms are dying, so we need to quarantine them and put them under 24 hour care as soon as possible.
 

The Gentle Barn wants to take them in, make sure they are healthy, give them the right nutrients, and when they are big and strong, they both can join our herd of cows and live here for the rest of their lives safe and sound.  

 

As usual, we can’t do this without your financial support! Please donate towards their rescue, healing, rehabilitation and care. They have lost their moms, but we can be the village that will raise these babies and show them love!
