“I have a name – it’s Gabi! I was an orphaned baby goat but now I’m part of the Beauty’s Haven family. I was weak and didn’t feel good when I got here – and I was scared. I had been laying on my right side after I was born for what seemed like forever. My mommy had left me there and I didn’t know what to do. So I just laid there. But then I was taken to where I am now. When I got here, I couldn’t even stand up. Mommy Theresa massaged me and worked my legs. I got something called colostrum and milk replacer and then I felt better. And then guess what happened? I started hopping and jumping around! It makes the humans smile and laugh!
I made my first animal friend here. Her name is Kiah. She’s a dog that needed help, too, when she got here. She only has two toes on her front foot because she chewed the others off to free herself from being tied to something. But she gets around just fine and we have started to play together. And I met two orphan kittens, Dash and Dottie, who like to play too!
So… I think I’m going to be okay. I feel better and I’m not scared anymore. Please click on my image above to view how far I’ve come!
Thank you all for caring!”
Love,
Gabi
Today, we welcomed two precious twin orphaned baby goats, a little girl and boy, to our family. They were taken from their momma at slightly over a week old, only for the sake of money. Sadly, it is almost always about money. They arrived bright eyed and curious!
We purchased milk replacer which they happily drank (they were very hungry) and then they checked out their new bedroom.
All tucked in for a little while.
