ASPCA helps Lifetime Equine Refuge Save Lives
“Hay can mean the difference of life and death to a horse and it can be hard to come by especially during drought years,” said Katia Louise, program director of Wild for Life Foundation’s Lifetime Equine Refuge. “Many families have sadly had to part with their horses in recent years as a result of the economic downturn and many of these horses arrive at the rescue severely underweight,” adds Katia Louise. “The funds from the ASPCA have helped to purchase good quality hay for the provision of vital nutrition as needed for rescue horses that receive a second chance at life through our equine rescue program.”
Wild for Life Foundation is honored and grateful to accept the ASPCA’s lifesaving support which came just in time to secure winter hay for our rescue horses. The ASPCA Equine Fund - Hay Bale Out enabled us to purchase enough hay to make it through the crucial winter months when hay funds were at their lowest. Funds received made it possible to purchase enough hay in advance to get through December and January.
The WFLF’s Lifetime Equine Refuge is dedicated to providing lifesaving stewardship to rescue horses in need, and strives to engage the public in learning experiences that inspire the prevention of cruelty to animals.
