Three Feathered Friends
Join Our Flock
|
|
Last fall, we welcomed three bonded geese Deborah, Tracey, and Lisa, to our New York sanctuary. The Nassau County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) originally confiscated the Buff geese trio from a homeowner who kept them cruelly confined and used them for egg production.
Thanks to their much-needed intervention and Humane Long Island, the geese were rehabilitated and brought to sanctuary. Here, Deborah, Tracey, and Lisa continue to be inseparable but now receive the love and individualized care all living beings deserve.

Responsible Animal Guardianship

We aim to provide care for the hundreds of rescued farmed animals who call our sanctuaries home so that they can truly thrive. While providing this care is not easy, it is well worth it. We want to share our experience during Responsible Animal Guardianship month so that you, too, can be informed and ready if and when you choose to become a responsible animal guardian.
