Goats
Angel
Angel was tossed out of a car on a busy street in Los Angeles. She was starving and sick. We know she was thrown out of a car because someone saw it happen and called Animal Services to come and get her. They contacted us, and when we saw this poor, emaciated angel with the runny eyes and the horrible cough, we had to take her home. It took months to heal her, and now she is the spunky clown of the farm but she will always be Angel to us.
Oscar
Oscar was rescued from the goat dairy industry. In every dairy business, the females have to be kept pregnant so they continue to give milk. Male animals have no value in that industry, because they cannot give milk, so they are routinely discarded. Oscar was born at a goat dairy and was unwanted. Fortunately, we found out about him and brought him and his brother to the ranch. He will get to live out his days being the incredible clown and love monster he was born to be.
Domino
Domino and his sister, Sweet Pea, were abandoned as tiny babies in a muddy field. Passersby saw them and brought them to safety. Most of the time Domino just wants to be loved and he begs for attention with his flirty golden eyes, but sometimes he wants to play goaty games with people. We are working with him to show him that people are not goats and that when he wants to play goaty games, he can play them with his sister. He is a smart guy and is learning quickly.
Sweet Pea
Sweet Pea and her brother, Domino, were abandoned as tiny babies in a muddy field. Passersby saw them and brought them to safety. She may have started out weak, miserable and hopeless, but now Sweet Pea is the queen of all she surveys. She still occasionally wants to show visitors how strong she is and assert her authority as queen of the farm, but we are working with her to help her understand that consistent gentleness is the sign of true strength.
Bill
Bill and his brother Ted were used as living lawn-mowers to clear brush from land, but were severely underfed and found themselves in need of rescue. Luckily, we were able to take both of them into the sanctuary where, with proper feeding and care, they are both thriving. Some goats are naughty and some are nice. Bill is in a class all his own. He is almost obnoxiously friendly and loving. He craves attention and never gets enough snuggling and loving. This boy is adored by the students and helps teach them that all animals are individuals and not commodities. If you come to visit beware, as Bill will follow you around, gazing longingly at you until you give him your undivided attention.
Ted
Just like his brother Bill, Ted was used for brush clearance. But since he wasn’t getting enough nutritious food to eat, he was in desperate need of rescue. A kind lady found out about Ted and arranged for him and his brother to stay at Kindred Spirits Care Farm. Now Bill and Ted continue their awesome adventure at the sanctuary hanging out with their sheep and human friends. He would love to have his own personal sponsor. Are you the one?
Alex
Someone in East Hollywood tied little Alex to a post using a thin nylon rope. Who knows what this person intended for this goat, but Alex did not intend to stick around to find out. He chewed through the rope and escaped. For 2 days, he ran the streets of the city looking for food and safety. Lucky for him, a volunteer from Kindred Spirits Care Farm heard about his situation and went looking for him. She found him and brought him to the ranch where he has found food, safety and friends for the rest of his life. He is a very lucky goat.
