Lauren was at Rikki’s Refuge No-Kill Life-Care Sanctuary scrambling in the rain yesterday (she’s there EVERY day!) to get this emergency goat pen put together …..

It’s a temporary fix because these goats needed a home in an emergency.

Two daddys,

two babies.

Where’s mommey?

They were living near train tracks …. goats are notorious escape artists …. they did what goats often do … escaped.

But they didn’t come wandering back home.

Mom was hit by a train. By the time the conductor could see her, it was too late to stop the train. She just looked at the train and didn’t get off the tracks. The guys ran home and back thru the broken fence.

And a new and safe home was needed NOW, with someone loving and kind just like Lauren to bottle feed them and be their mom till they grow up. And here they are at Rikki’s Refuge.

They’re too little to be outside in a pen on a cold and rainy day like this. But they’ll get time to spend with their dad’s when it’s dry and warm. In the meantime, the cats in the 9th Life Retirement, Assisted Living and Psychiatric center will help keep them warm and cared for.

Can YOU help us with these unexpected expenses?
PLEASE?
The emergency pen for quarantine time, which we’ll be able to use for others down the road. Permanent fencing and housing, medical care and neutering, hay, straw, and baby goat formula.

Thank you so very much for making it possible for us to save animals in need.
