    Here are but just a few of our residents and their stories.

    Sunny-Butter (and Rebecca)

    Rebecca and Sunny-Butler
    Rebecca’s friend saved Sunny-Butter from a petting zoo when she was a day-old chick.  Rebecca took care of her and raised her in her bedroom in the city.  When Sunny-Butter grew larger, Rebecca’s family took her to the home of one of our board of directors, who brought her here. 

    AL

    Al is one of three young toms who were saved by Farm Sanctuary.  They arrived at our sanctuary on New Year’s Day 2008 – what a great way to start the new year!

    Max

    Max and Chickens

    Max arrived on April 1, 2007 as a shy, emaciated dog.  Now 40 pounds heavier, he watches over and protects the chickens (who walk under him instead of around him).

    Diesel

    Diesel and two hens were saved from the Hurricane Floyd flood of 1999.  They arrived at the local humane society covered in diesel fuel and required a lengthy bath when they arrived at the sanctuary.

    Okie

    Okie

    Okie fell from a slaughterhouse-bound truck in Oklahoma.  A local woman, on a return cross-country trip to our area, picked her up and took care of her for the rest of the journey east.
