Animals are such wonderful creatures. I've always enjoyed the visits I have made to farms and to the woods where all kinds of animals exist in a nice peaceful setting. I've written here before about the importance of treating all animals with decency and respect, but I want to mention the Barn Sanctuary, which I just heard about.
Now generally I like to have a lot of information about any organization I write about, but I just couldn't wait. I saw a tv news report and immediately said "What a great idea!" It seems that in Chelsea, Michigan there is now a place that provides shelter to cows, horses, turkeys, pigs, chickens, ducks, sheep, and goats who have been rescued from cases of abuse, abandonment, and from natural disasters. I watched videos and pictures on their facebook page, and my heart melted.
As I said, I don't know a lot about them, but I intend to find out more. They do have a website at https://www.barnsanctuary.org/ that does a great job of telling their story and how we can all get involved. I'd love to take a trip there, and they will soon be open to the public. Until then, be kind to all animals. They deserve our love and respect just as much as humans do.
