SOMEBODY’S KNOCKING AND BABY RAY IS BACK!

Saving Grace

Baby Ray is home_322pxNovember 9th, 2017

Baby Ray is back from his foster home as Athena, his pasture mate, has been adopted! Baby Ray is now all grown up!  He came to us as a few months old orphan, skin on bones, after having been listed as “Free on Craigslist.” He was born blind due to congenital cataracts. The cataracts were removed at UF and he can now see, albeit he has no lenses and is unable to focus normally.

Little Grace just loves her new home! And her foster family has fallen in love with her – so much so that they are adopting her! Grace has been blessed with her own human family! And we were blessed to be able to help her when she needed us, thanks to the wonderful assistance and support from our village!

Magic is still stunning! Notice the two birds? They are never very far from him. Magic was a bit under the weather for a few days, but thankfully, he is now feeling better.

There must me something magical about the stairs to the office – I never know who I’m going to find there!

These little ones are doing so well. They’re steadily gaining weight and are very happy! Cricket never fails to greet you with a whinny!

We are very thankful to everyone who helped with their needs. They love attention and would make a wonderful addition to a family looking for little ones to love on. If anyone is interested in adopting Jiminy and Cricket,  please read our “Adoption Requirements” in the Notes section on our Beauty’s HavenAdoption Page prior to contacting us.

Penny is such a sweet and trusting girl. She’s a Belgian that was born blind and is about 30 years young. Please consider giving Penny a home for the holidays. She’s an absolutely wonderful and kind mare with lots of love to give.

JoJo knocking at the office door – he wanted to make sure we didn’t forget to turn the clocks back an hour on Sunday. He was so excited at the thought of turning back time! Silly donkey!

A LONG NIGHT WITH HURRICANE IRMA

A Long Night Collage

 

We made it! All horses are accounted for. That was a really long night!  We are truly exhausted but very thankful that the storm is over.

 

 
Precious little Grace – she’s now officially, a ‘Storm Cat.’
 
 
 
Poor Betsy Rose looks like the way I feel.
 
The horses that stayed at the concrete barn during the storm all returned home today.

 

Lucy and CaryLou were quite happy to see their Mommy Theresa!
The rain is never ending. The barn is flooded and the water keeps coming.  Thankfully, the stalls are mostly dry. We still have to assess the damage and will keep you all updated.

 

Thank you so very much, once again, for keeping Beauty’s Haven in your thoughts and prayers.

SAVING GRACE – CAN YOU HELP?

August 26th, 2017 – Saturday Afternoon

We have another baby and it’s nothing short of a miracle! When I got home from the vet with the kittens, I took them to the office in the stroller. Bob went to get some things out of the car when he called me on the radio (we use 2-way radios on the farm) to come quickly – there was a white cat hiding in the roll of fence wire by the garage!  He walked towards her and called out, but she wouldn’t move which was good because the donkeys were out roaming around the house.  Jenny helped me secure JoJo and Jazzy and then I walked to one end of the roll of fencing and squatted down and the cat came right to me. She was exhausted and looked like she’d been on an incredibly long and tiring journey.  But the look on her face was one of relief – as though she’d finally found her destination – I named her Grace.  

Amazing Grace

Our prayers for momma cat to come back were answered, but she is just a baby herself – not even a year old. This had to have been her first (we’ll make sure it’s her last) litter. We took her into the office and gave her water and a little food – she was so hungry. We cleaned her up and put her by the stroller with the babies, but she had no interest in them. She’s exhausted and needs time to relax and regroup.

Grace is only 4.2 lbs (that was after she’d eaten a little and drank some water). She’s so very thin – all bones. She’s been sleeping in her very own bed all evening. Grace did get up to eat and drink a little bit more and she used the litter box. It’s apparent that Grace hasn’t lived a good life. She’s unhealthy – skin on bones and she has some broken teeth. She has no milk to offer her babies and it’s no wonder why her babies were born premature. But she loves humans even after all they did, or didn’t, do for her in her short life – isn’t that amazing? She is amazing – amazing Grace!

We may be an equine rescue organization but we try to help animals that find their way to us. And we can only help these animals because of support from all of you – your support makes this possible. Please consider making a tax deductible donation today – no amount is too small.  Just click on the Donate link below.  Also, please share this with family and friends.

Please keep Grace and her babies in your prayers – they all have some hurdles to overcome. Thank you all so much for your support.
