Help Needed for 65 Horses
The following is a post from Chilly Pepper Equine Rescue.
Update from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang.
There are some new developments in our horse world. We are still looking for sponsors for the 5 Yakima Orphan Foals who were rescued from the auction yard after they were roped and held, while their moms were loaded into the slaughter trucks.
We appreciate all the folks who are stepping up to help us continue our work, and we hope that we can find homes for these five foals so we can rescue more. Please contact us at 530 474 5197 if you would like to visit or are thinking about adopting. We will transport pretty much anywhere if fuel & travel costs are covered, for a good home.
You can go to our website www.chillypepper.org and donate for their care or just follow their stories.
HOWEVER, there is an even more desperate situation that has come to light. Some of the folks that we work with, and whom have been saving wild horses for a very long time desperately need our help.
People always talk about “stopping slaughter” and how wrong it is, but once again there is an amazing opportunity to help ACTUALLY BE PART OF THE SOLUTION AND MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE. No matter where you live, in an apartment, condo or in the city, you can still make a difference.
There are 65 horses that were rescued, (40 of them LITERALLY 10 minutes before they were loaded onto slaughter trucks) and saved in the nick of time from being sent to slaughter. However, the cost to feed these horses is averaging about $2400 a month. We need to raise enough money to feed these horses until they are placed in their forever homes. Transport will also be a huge expense.
Remember, not only will you be making a difference for the horses, but donations are tax deductible.
If you can find it in your heart to skip a Latte or Cup O’ Joe, please go to YOU CARING – HELP FEED AND SAVE THE 65 HORSES RESCUED FROM SLAUGHTER
As always, we thank you for your continued support in our fight against horse slaughter and our efforts to continue rescuing those who cannot fight for themselves.
