Rescued Goat Experiences Tiny Christmas Miracle
Rescued Goat Experiences Tiny Christmas Miracle
She came to the sanctuary still pregnant, suffering from sickness and probably terrified after her plight. Olive was just one of 200 animals rescued from a nightmare butcher in upstate New York back in October.
Since then, she has been recovering at Farm Sanctuary. She has also been approaching the moment when she would bring a baby into the world.
That moment came on Christmas Eve.
People at the sanctuary gathered around Olive to lend their support to her as she gave birth to a healthy baby girl, weighing in at 9 pounds and 6 ounces. Olive cleaned the just-born baby, who was born among people who devote their lives to rescuing animals.
As the baby took her first uncertain walks, she acquainted herself with her new family — goat and non-goat. Olive's baby is one of the luckiest animals in the world. Rescued just in time from the butcher, she'll be able to live out her whole life at Farm Sanctuary.
"Olive came to us thin, anemic, full of parasites — and pregnant. That she delivered a healthy kid — 9 pounds, 6 ounces and suckling within three minutes! — is what we call a Christmas Miracle!" Farm Sanctuary said.
This fragile little kid certainly teaches us to appreciate the beauty of life. Let's enjoy more meat-free meals so little miracles like this can happen more often – http://KindMeal.my.
