Willow is one of four siblings, the quadruplets, with Valentina, Gerald, and Snowy!  The quadruplets were rescued in January 2018 when they were just hours old after they were abandoned by their mother. Because the quadruplets did not receive their mother's colostrum, they spent nearly a week at the Iowa State University Large Animal Hospital where they were cared for around the clock. Willow's plasma-protein levels were incredibly low, putting her at risk for her immune system becoming compromised. The team at ISU acted quickly, and Willow received a plasma transfusion at the hospital just a few days after she was born. In the weeks following, she made a complete recovery. Today, Willow is full of spunk! To tell her apart from her siblings, she has the least amount of white on her face.
