You are amazing Sally ❤️

Thank you! Sadly a huge tree has crashed through our boundary fence. It’s so humongous that it’s wrecked a large section of the fence and it’s too big to sort quickly— an update will be going on Patreon over the next couple of days! Thankfully the animals are all safe 🙏

We have found ourselves struggling & have had to set up a JustGiving page to help towards farrier, fencing, hay, vets bills & supplies: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

We’d be so thankful for any help towards our goal!

We are so grateful for your support 🐏🐎

The calm after Storm Amy

It was a night of wild winds, torrential rain & branches falling. This morning, it’s glowingly sunny & peaceful

An early morning delivery of grassibix (low sugar forage) for the miniatures has lifted spirits after a busy night

It’s pouring with rain — but the sheep are smiling 😊 They’ve seen their big, brimming haynets being filled in the feed room 👀

If you can help with a bale or two, we’d really appreciate it with the hay shortage in the UK: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

Thank you to everyone who has helped ☺️

Thank you ever so much, that’s so lovely of you! ❤️🥰

Mini Motley Sanctuary @minisanctuary.bsky.social · 11d

We go through an incredible amount of hay & haylage each week

We’d be so very grateful if anyone wants to buy the animals a bale — or help us reach our justgiving goal, which also helps us with fencing, feed, vets & farrier costs: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

Welcome to Sunday breakfast on the Sanctuary, where sharing is optional…& a sign of great friendship! Winnie our rescue horse is very fond of ‘Boundary-less’ Bertie, whose sweet nature & horizontal energy allow him to sneak extra hay (zoom-in on his satisfied grin!)

Thank you for supporting us XX

A horse & sheep are happily sharing a pile of hay.

Bertie thinks that his friend’s bum makes an excellent chin rest! 😂

Whatever mischief he’s up to — his animal friends seem to tolerate his antics!

…and just look at his little teeth! 🦷
