A Valentine’s Day Wish
The ‘Velvet Nosers’ here at Beauty’s Haven are eagerly awaiting Valentine’s Day and they truly hope that each of their ‘Aunties’ and ‘Uncles’ will send them a ‘Virtual Valentine!’
All you have to do is forward a $5 donation and indicate the name of the equine, dog or cat who you would very much love to be your Valentine. Of course, you may send a Valentine to more than one member of our beloved herd and if you would like to forward a donation greater than $5, that would be so very much appreciated as well.
Our little herd is comprised of: Aaleyah Belle, Amira, Bouie, CaryLou, Chloe, Dancer, Ebony, Elka, Frodo, Jazzy, JoJo. Jo, Komanchee, Lily, Lucy, Luiji, Magic, Mishka, Mo, Peaches, Rio, Valley Girl, Warrior, Waylon, Walker, Willow, Benjamin, Shadow, Allie, Neo, Gio, Oreo and Pearle.
So, if you would like to make one of our ‘Velvet Nosers’ truly happy this Valentine’s Day, just click on the ‘DONATE’ button below and please include the name of your very special Valentine.
Thank you everyone!
Sincerely,
Theresa
Please click on the image above to view an entertaining video of our
lovely new Catio with all the ensuing kitty shenanigans!
A nice Catio was found under the Christmas tree for the feral cats and kittens on Christmas morning! A Catio will help protect them from the elements and predators. And just when we thought we had all of them fixed, a female that disappeared months ago, showed up just the other day, with five precious kittens. They are, thankfully, old enough now, so we can begin trapping them, getting them neutered, and releasing them.
Thank you, Auntie Marilyn, for this incredible Gift of Love!
Sincerely,
Theresa
As we reflect upon 2023, we want to take a moment to thank you, our wonderful village of supporters, for helping us continue our mission of providing care and support, not only to our beloved little herd, but to other sentient beings in dire need, as well.
Because of your unwavering support, we were able to grant a second chance at life to Elka, our precious Molly Mule who was about to be shipped to slaughter, Waylon, a wise old soul, who needed sanctuary where he could live out his remaining years, Amira and Maggie, two beautiful mares, both of whom were discovered starved abandoned and neglected, sweet Walker, who. too, simply needed a safe place to land, and of course, Benjamin, discovered wandering about, lost and alone. We also welcomed Willow back to our herd.
And when it was time to say tearful goodbyes to Beauty, Ruby, Nadia, Venus, Oasis, Peggy Sue, Minnie and precious Rosie, you were there for us, once again, providing unending prayers and beautiful words of comfort, for which we will forever remain grateful.
Your support also helped us with the feral cat population. We are so truly grateful for a much needed Catio which was recently donated and just received! A Catio will help these sweet cats, together with their kittens, stay warm and safe. We will be trapping, fixing and releasing at least one more adult cat and her five kittens as soon as the kittens attain the proper age. Sadly, Midnight, one of our released feral cats, sustained life-threatening injuries and had to be humanely euthanized after seemingly, being run over by four wheelers that were illegally racing in a large field next to the rescue. Despite his significant injuries, he somehow, made it back to the rescue, and had we not found him, he would have suffered immensely for at least, another day or two.
Lastly, we are so very grateful for your most generous support to our End of the Year Campaign which has allowed us to become just $2881 within reach of our $15,000 goal. With only one day remaining in 2023, we ask that you please share this newsletter amongst family and friends, in hope that they, too, may wish to make a tax-deductible contribution to Beauty’s Haven Farm and Equine Rescue, Inc. And to our twenty-one recurring automatic donors, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your monthly donation is constant and makes a significant impact on each and every member of our precious herd.
Wishing you all, a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.
Sincerely,
Theresa
As you all know, we didn’t have a Thanksgiving save this year which I felt absolutely terrible about, especially since we had many calls from others wanting to surrender their horses. At the time, however, we were focused upon Beauty who was very sick and in the hospital. I am still adjusting to her being gone and I miss her so very much.
In honor of Beauty, we took in an aged mule that needed help as our Christmas save. Her name is Elka.
Just because one is old, doesn’t mean they should be neglected or sent to slaughter – every life is precious and every life matters. Elka will now only know love and proper care – this is our promise to her as it is to every sentient being that enters through our gates.
Elka would very much love to have sponsors to assist with her daily expenses, so if anyone would like to sign up to do so, it would be so greatly appreciated. Just click on the ‘DONATE’ button below, where you may sign up to become a monthly recurring sponsor, or if you prefer to make a one-time donation, there are a variety of ways in which to do so. All donations are so greatly appreciated and no amount is ever too small.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!
Sincerely,
Theresa
Lucy and CaryLou have asked that I share their Christmas Wish List with Santa! They are asking for items that they really need, so if anyone wishes to be their ‘Secret Santa,’ it would truly make their hearts sing on Christmas day! You may forward a donation toward an item simply by clicking on the ‘DONATE’ button below, or, if you would prefer to purchase an item and have it sent directly to Beauty’s Haven, our address is: P.O. Box 53, Morriston, FL 32668. Thank you for always ‘being there’ for our beloved little herd.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!
Sincerely,
Theresa
On Mother’s Day 2023 we would like to honor Momma Sue, one of our incredibly amazing equine mothers who arrived at Beauty’s Haven 15 years ago with a newborn baby by her side. That baby is our beloved Aaleyah Belle, who, despite her challenges, never gave up and represents one of the many miracles that we have witnessed at Beauty’s Haven since our inception in 2006. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Momma Sue and Aaleyah Belle, please click on the image above where you can view a video as well as read a story about their remarkable journey, a journey which begins just hours following Aaleyah’s birth.
In celebration of Momma Sue, we believe that the most meaningful way in which to honor your mother or anyone in your life who has shown exceptional love and kindness, would be to make a gift in their honor to a rescue organization who represents the voice of those who are unable to speak for themselves. Should you select Beauty’s Haven, not only would we be forever grateful, but your gift will enable us to continue our mission of helping horses like Momma Sue and Aaleyah Belle, as well as other countless sentient beings in need.
Should you decide that making a donation in honor of your mother or other special person in your life is something you would like to do, please click on the ‘DONATE’ button below where you will find numerous options in which to forward your contribution. Please make certain to note the name of the person(s) who you would like to honor on their special day, or you could simply send an email to bhfers@gmail.com.
Wishing everyone a very Happy Mother’s Day and thank you, all, so very much, for your love and support.
Sincerely,
Theresa
