Adelle

Let’s just say, she owes her life to some very courageous animal activists, who visited a Turkey factory after hours and didn’t exactly pay for her…

Who in the world could ever consider eating such a sweet girl?!

Suggested monthly donation: $20.00

 

PUMBAH

Locked behind chain-link fence on a concrete pad. When we picked him up, he had no life left in his eyes. As a matter of fact, we weren’t even sure he would make it to And-Hof.

Bini

She was found in Prospect Park, NYC, together with her brother Billy. They were completely exhausted and waterlogged from being chased and attacked from the wild Ducks on the pond.

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

 

Hank

If you ever think, you could have a Goat in your house, you are wrong! As the indoor catastrophe was progressing, we got a panicked phone call begging us for help to avoid complete destruction.

As tiny as little is, he stands his ground with the other comparatively giant Goats. Mischief comes in all forms in sizes….

BERTIE

He was found more dead than alive, when he was found next to the road after being hit by a car. We rushed him to the ER and to all of our surprise the survived! He is though Bird. Just ask our other Roosters…

 
 
 

Carlos

Victim of a school hatching project together with his 11 siblings. Like in most hatching projects, they most likely been dumped into a pond and died a horrible death. Domestic Ducks do not stand a chance again wild Ducks.

Juno and Jupiter

Since the moment they first met at And-Hof, they have been as inseparable as 2 magnets. Juno has severely deformed ‘Angel Wings’, which makes her vulnerable. But her girlfriend Jupiter watches like a Hawk over her!

Suggested monthly donation: $70.00 for both

 
 

Rosie

She, Wilbour and Hettie are our Christmas Pigs. The reason being, had we not taken them, they would have gone to the butcher. The day before Christmas! I could not bear the thought of sitting under the Christmas knowing that I had not given them a chance to live

Hence Christmas Pigs!

Suggested monthly donation: $60.00

Hugo

He was separated from his mother right after birth. By the time the farm hand found him, it was too late, and this mother rejected him. Not knowing what to do. So, someone googled Sanctuaries and the rest is history…

Hugo is also known as Rambo, because he loves nothing more than playing head budding with people!

Suggested monthly donation: $50.00

Fourteen (as in Louis XIV):

After spending at 1.5 years in the forest, John DeLeonardo from LIONS was finally able to bring Fourteen to safety at And-Hof. Though it took him a while, he is now very happy to have a roof over his head. Especially snowy, wintery days.

Suggested monthly donation: $30.00

 

Finley

When I first saw Finley in a pasture, he was knuckle walking, meaning, he could not walk on his front hoofs. The farmer didn’t care and handed him right over to us. It took the better part of a year of physical therapy, acupuncture, and custom braces. But eventually he could walk on all of his 4 hoofs. He is the sweetest, kindest, and most loving Sheep you can imagine!

Suggested monthly donation: $60.00

King

No words needed. I think.

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

 
 

HIRONIMUS

 If there has ever been an opinionated, self-righteous Rooster with a crow that wakes up the dead, it’s Hironimus!

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

 

CowCow

This young farmer’s son called me in desperation. He had bottle raised CowCow almost since the day he was born and now he was scheduled to go to auction. What a traumatic experience for a 7 year old! I talked to his dad, and he let us have CowCow.

Carl, now a teenage, still comes regularly to the Sanctuary to visit with his ‘baby’.

Isodora

She is one of 250 Chickens we rescued from a religious ritual, where year after year, after year between 50,000 and 60,000 Chickens are being slaughtered on the streets of Brooklyn, NYC. What a barbaric massacre!

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

 

Mirko

He came to us with his siter Nutmeg and mom Dorothee. Their owner had passed away from COVID-19 and his family didn’t want to bother with them. Considering their age, they would have ended up in Dog food cans. We learned about the three just days before they were scheduled to be picked up. But we were faster!

Suggested monthly donation: $70.00

 

Nutmeg

Mirko’s sister.

Look at these faces! How can anybody conceivably not care about these soulful creatures?

Suggested monthly donation: $70.00

Pauli

Once upon a time Pauli enjoyed the comfort of a fluffy couch and strolls around Riverside Park in Manhattan. The romance was over, of cause, once cute little Piggy turned into a massive Potbelly Pig. What was once loved became a burden. To us Pauli is, and will always be, a very lovable Piggy!

Suggested monthly donation: $40.00

Winston

He has been at And-Hof so long, he is part of the inventory. And nobody remembers anymore where and how he got here. not that it matters anyway. Winston is just a happy Rooster, who enjoys his freedom and our affection for him.

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

 
 

Wilbour

He, like his sisters, Rosie and Hettie, are our Christmas Pigs. The reason being, had we not taken them, they would have gone to the butcher. The day before Christmas! I could not bear the thought of sitting under the Christmas knowing that I had not given them a chance to live

Hence Christmas Pigs!

Suggested monthly donation: $60.00

Tony

He is one of the 180 Staten Island wild Turkeys we rescued after we learned that the USDA had already 100 of these magnificent Birds, ‘Invasive species with aggressive tendency”; bureaucracy combined with ignorance is a fatal combination! Until we intervened…

Suggested monthly donation: $20.00

 

Mohgly

Illegally abducted from a torturous, abusive situation. No further details will be revealed to protect the ‘robbers’!

Suggested monthly donation: $60.00

 
 

Liesel

Liesel was apprehended after crossing a red light while intoxicated. Her driving privileges have been revoked and she is currently looking for a chauffeur, or whatever can pull her around the Sanctuary!

Suggested monthly donation: $60.00

 

Theodore

Again, we don’t talk about his birthplace and where he came from. Because we don’t want to get handcuffed and put into jail!

Suggested monthly donation: $30.00

 

Tyron

No clue where he came from, or how he got here. All we know is that one early morning he was marching in front of one of our Chicken coops and wanted to be let in. The other Roosters were not amused about the new competition. But that didn’t deter Tyron in the least. He was here to stay!

Suggested monthly donation: $15.00

Ella

She is the first and only (featherless) animal ever to be born at And-Hof. We rescued her mother Greta last Fall, not knowing that she was pregnant. And during a terrible snowstorm, Ella was born on March 10, 2022, at 5;07 am in my kitchen. Welcome to the world sweet little girl!
