Chilly nights are frosting the grass and the Black Sheep is fundraising for quality animal feed to tide us through to spring!

Wellington

Can you help the animals at the Black Sheep Animal Sanctuary Ōtaki this winter? The sanctuary is fundraising to buy in winter feed supplies. In the colder months, the grass stops growing and the cows, sheep, goats, rabbits and horses all need extra hay, grain and pellets to maintain their health and happiness. We need around $5000 to buy in grain, hay, pellets and other essential feeds to see us through the cold season, so we're launching our annual winter fundraiser.

Although the costs of the mortgage on the sanctuary land and some animal care is covered by funds raised from our city opshops, the sanctuary largely depends on the support of compassionate people to fund the remainder of our animal care, food, housing and veterinary bills. Our Opportunity for Animals opshops in Newtown and Miramar were closed for weeks last year due to the Covid-19 restrictions, which means that funds are tighter than usual. Can you help us ensure the cows, sheep, goats, rabbits and horses are warm and well-fed this winter? We are a registered charity so all donations are tax deductible and go directly to the animals

We're very grateful and humbled by the support we've received in the past and we're hoping for your continued support.

About us

The Black Sheep supports animal rights and animal protection, providing a safe haven for about 100 previously abused, injured and neglected animals (pigs, goats, sheep, roosters, cows, horses, ducks, geese, rabbits, turkeys and more) near Ōtaki Forks.

Use of funds

All funds raised will go towards quality grain, hay, feed pellets, nutritional supplements and other essential feed. Any funds raised over our target will be dedicated to preventative health care for the animals.
