When you sponsor an animal for a month you will make a HUGE impact on the animal’s life by helping provide food, bedding and vet care. With your donation, you will receive a special downloadable certificate of sponsorship as well as a coupon for one free Sanctuary Stroll to be redeemed upon arrival. Come out and meet the animals you’ve sponsored—so they can thank you themselves!

Precious little Olive was listed on Craigslist in an ad titled “ewe for butcher”. The ad explained that Olive was being sold for slaughter because she had an easily treatable ailment that the farmer was choosing not to treat. We reached out to the farmer immediately, and we discovered that Olive was pregnant. We were truly speechless. 

Realizing how urgent the situation was, we knew we had to do everything in our power to save Olive and her unborn lamb(s). Thankfully, we were able to secure Olive’s freedom and we rushed to safety as fast as we could.  

It’s clear that Olive has never been treated with love and kindness before, and she’s still deciding if we are safe to trust. But Olive always has a little smile on her face, and each day she grows more relaxed. We will give her all the space she needs and do everything possible to show her she’s safe now.

Olive was the first pregnant resident we’ve ever had at the sanctuary, and her lamb was the first individual ever born into the freedom that our sanctuary provides. Pablo was born on March 11, 2021. It’s truly magical - Pablo will never know suffering or fear, and this precious family will never be separated. Olive and her child deserve all of the love and kindness in the world, and that’s exactly what they’ll receive at IFS.
