Looking back at 2021

The year in review

LATEST UPDATES FROM JP

by Lynn, Oscar & Britt | Jan 30, 2022

“These events helped us raise awareness for the plight of farmed animals and gave back directly to the rescued residents of JP.”

You can help by sharing their story

“We try our best to give these beautiful beings the life they deserve.”

You have helped us do this in so many ways …

As you may know, sanctuary life can be both heartwarming and heartbreaking. We welcome new residents, with stories that often have challenged pasts and say goodbye to others that we have been able to love. We watch them grow, develop relationships between other residents and hopefully gain their trust in us to care for them.

We try our best to give these sentient beings the life they deserve. You have helped us do this with your compassionate donations, volunteering support, social media support, physical visits to meet the animals in person and most importantly your friendship!

Your generosity has contributed to the following this past year:
 

Including the daily feed, medicine, medical supplies, and sanctuary maintenance, as well as these highlights:

Adopted Rusty the rooster from a kind family that found him roaming in their office yard

Reworked the chicken coop to be able to house Rusty, Victor and the Hens safely

Adopted Mozza the pig from Farm Sanctuary’s Adoption Network in Watkins Glen, NY

Built a fence in the woods for the pigs: Beanie-Tofu, Dolphin, DJ, and Mozza

Adopted Olivia and Emmerson and built their coop

Repositioned many elements in the cow barn for more efficiency

Hospital visits:

  • DJ’s hoof surgery
  • Mozza’s spaying surgery
  • Ethan’s horn removal

Farm Veterinary Visits:

  • Checks on the chickens
  • Shots & vaccines
  • Several visits for Ethan and Cara
  • Cara’s passing

Several Hoof Trimming Visits:

  • Allie for her infection: 4 times
  • Cara for her infections: twice
  • All cows for hoof trimming: twice

Equipment purchases and or maintenance

Some of our rescued residents we sadly lost this past year.

With heavy hearts, we also lost the following residents: Ava the hen who originally came with Victor; Hope, Joy, Isabella and Sunshine from the Brooklyn 6 Cornish Hens; Cara the Scottish Highland cow from the original herd that started JP Farm Animal Sanctuary back in 2013.

We also watched our English Mastiff dog Ace lose his ability to walk from a stroke and infection in his back which led to an invasive surgery that he is still not recovered from.

Cara — the Scottish Highland cow from the original herd

Cara the Scottish Highland cow from the original herd that started JP Farm Animal Sanctuary back in 2013. She passed away in early January 2022.

This unspoken partnership helps us to serve as a place of joy and peace for rescued farmed animals, …
… and to also inspire and educate people and their loved ones to live a happy, healthy, compassionate life.
We originally started JP to save and rescue farmed animals that we felt deserved a better life. We didn’t know that at the time we would become advocates for all farmed animals and that we would be working closely with you. This unspoken partnership helps us to serve as a place of joy and peace for rescued farmed animals, and to also inspire and educate people and their loved ones to live a happy, healthy, compassionate life.
 

The sanctuary’s goal is to seed a spirit of kindness for all animals, through sharing the stories of the sanctuary’s resident ambassadors, and by providing a place of connection where visitors can come to know animals more deeply.

We hope to continue to work with you in 2022 to inspire compassionate living for all!

Thank you.

Love,
The JP Family

“May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.”
