A Few Words About Baby Bunnies and Cute Chicks



Whether it is in celebration of Easter or the arrival of Spring, this time of year hundreds of thousands of bunnies and chicks are purchased as pets. Sadly, once the bunnies grow up to be rabbits, and the chicks become full grown chickens, the majority of these animals end up in animal shelters where many face certain euthanasia, or they are simply let loose to fend for themselves in the wild where few survive.

As with any animal you bring into your home, please consider the committment needed to provide a lasting and loving home for your furry, feathered, hooved, finned, or scaly companion. Each year millions of healthy, loving, animals are euthanized for lack of a good home. Please do your research before bringing home a companion animal, and please consider adopting from your local shelter or rescue group.

Fast Eddie & A Lamborghini - Not Your Usual Hot Rods

When their owner could no longer care for them, one year old Merino Sheep "Lamborghini" and one year old Nubian Goat "Fast Eddie" were brought to our foundation and are now living peacefully with all the other animals. Because they were raised together, Lamborghini and Fast Eddie are very bonded and are seldom more than 10 feet apart from each other at any given time. They are both gentle and affectionate, and responsible for many smiles from our volunteers.







Who knew a Lamborghini could be so precious. Here is our new boy as a baby.


Fast Eddie likes life in the fast lane with his best buddy Lamborghini. We welcomed these two guys last Sunday and they are just zooming around the pasture.

Den 3 the wolf cubs and the wind howled at the Edwards

It was a cold and windy day...
These cub scouts and their families came out to visit and how the wind did BLOW.

After grooming animals, the leaders asked each cub to tell facts about the animals that they had worked with.

Then the cubs led the animals in a pattern course.
Each scout earned a blue ribbon for their accomplishments as well as a scout badge for helping to clean up trash.

Well done Den 3!!!
