HOME

The Black Sheep Animal Sanctuary is a safe and sustainable space
to rehabilitate and re-home abused, injured and neglected non-human animals.

– Every animal rescued is a symbol of hope and liberation –

Spring at the Black Sheep

Springtime has brought us a number of babies at the sanctuary. We are very busy caring for a new lamb, two goat kids and two baby bunnies. All have been rescued from desperate situations, so we're very glad to take them in.

They join the miniature horses, ex-battery hens, ducks, rats, pilgrim geese, cows, sheep, pigs, goats, dogs, cats, nearly 50 roosters, a herd of pigs - over 160 animals in all.

If you would like to sponsor one of our new arrivals or any of the other animals in need at the sanctuary then click here.

Even the smallest gift makes all the difference to our animal protection work

We have been hand feeding two baby bunnies, who were rescued after their home was destroyed by a digger

We are also seeking loving permanent homes for cats, cows and sheep ideally with vegetarian families - this will enable us to take in and care for more animals on an ongoing basis. See our Adopt page for more details.
