Animals for Adoption

Right now, a group of beautiful animals from across the country are hoping for a new beginning. Among them are horses who have given their younger years to people and now seek peace in retirement. There’s a young Auckland Island pig who, through no fault of her own, can no longer stay where she is. Two sheep, one in lamb, have lost the safety of their paddock and urgently need somewhere secure. A steer and a heifer, both calm and sweet-natured, wait patiently for someone who’ll care for them with kindness. And far down south, two pig sisters—inseparable since birth—long for a place to grow old together.

Each one has a story.

We only adopt to non-breeding, non-eating homes. That’s not negotiable. Their lives are their own, and they deserve to live them fully and freely. Our adoption process is careful, with support, transparency, and a return clause—because we’ll always be here for them, no matter what.

If you’ve got the space, the heart, and the commitment to offer a forever home, please reach out. These animals are ready. They just need someone to say yes.
