The media is full of stories
of not so nice people and events and if that is where your view of the world is
formed what an awful world it must seem to be.
At Rikki's Refuge we see the wonderful
side of people and the kindness and
compassion of the world. We see
children growing up with the promise of becoming the next generation of loving
caring leaders. These young ladies are
just such people.
These two best friends, Amery and Evie, decided they wanted their birthday to matter, they didn't just wnat
gifts for themselves. So instead of
receiving gifts for their combined birthday party, they asked their guests to
donate food and supplies for the animals at Rikki's Refuge!!
Aren't we all so lucky to
have such wonderful young children take an interest and have a passion for the
animals!!!
Thank you so much and Happy
Birthday girls ~~ you are amazing!!
Come back and visit us anytime!!
**if you or your child are interested
in this kind of giving, email us at Rikki@RikkisRefuge.org
for a list of items that we always need!

"It's ok Buddy, I promise, EVERYTHING they eat will be vegetarian, you'll
always be safe here."
I'm sure you've been as worried about
Goose as we have.
Goose and Bub the elder
donkey have been inseparable the last few years since each lost their
mate. And then Bub passed away silently
in his sleep one night. Poor Goose
grieved. He tried to bond with pony
Bella. It didn't last long and Goose
was rejected. Poor Goose sat on a bale
of straw and grieved. He wouldn't eat. He wouldn't get up. He was so sad.
Until he met Prince the
elderly horse !!!!
And just look how happy he is
now !!!!
The geese have been thrilled
it's been such a wet and rainy year !!!!!
