¿POR QUÉ NO SE DAN LOS HABITANTES DEL SANTUARIO EN ADOPCIÓN?
A esta pregunta que tantos nos hacéis, la respondemos contando la historia de Brisa:
Ella es una oveja que durante años fue explotada en una granja, donde cada año tenía bebés que les eran robados para consumo humano.
Empezó a tener problemas en sus pezuñas porque no la cuidaban, ya que solo le importaba que pariera para poder vender los corderitos. Al no caminar bien, con alguna rama perdió un ojo.
Como ya era un problema para el ganadero, la enviaba al matadero, pero conseguimos que nos la diera. Llegó en muy mal estado, se le notaban las costillas, pero al día siguiente por la noche, nos dio una sorpresa, dio a luz a un corderito, a Diego.
A los 4 días de haber parido se encontraba tan débil por la neumonía que tenía y la infección de matriz que cogió por el parto, que no se podía levantar. Estuvo dos semanas dentro de casa viviendo con nosotros en el salón, para poder estar pendiente de ella las 24 horas y darle el tratamiento que la recuperó.
Ahora ella vive feliz en el Santuario junto a su hijo. La primera vez que no le han robado su maternidad. Es la amiga inseparable de Helena, otra oveja, y es la mamá adoptiva de David, un cabrito. Ha establecido lazos familiares con el resto de habitantes del Santuario, porque esta es su familia.
¿Os parecería justo darla en adopción y quitarle todo lo que tiene ahora?

WHY ARE THE SANCTUARY RESIDENTS NOT UP FOR ADOPTION?
To this question, which we get so often, we will answer by telling you Brisa’s story:
She’s a sheep who, for years, was exploited on a farm. Every year her babies were taken away for human consumption.
She started getting problems with her hooves, as she wasn’t properly looked after. They only wanted her for giving birth to more lambs to be sold. As she couldn’t walk properly, at some stage she lost an eye, probably with a branch.
As she had become a nuisance for the farmer, she was going to be sent to the slaughterhouse. However we convinced him to hand her over to us. She arrived in a terrible state and her ribs could even be noticed. The day after her arrival, at night, she gave us a wonderful surprise. She gave birth to a little lamb, Diego.
Four days after giving birth she was so weak due to the pneumonia she had and the womb infection she got during labour, that she couldn’t stand. She spent two weeks inside the house, living with us in the living room, so that we could be watching her 24/7 and giving her the medication which helped her get through.
Now she lives happy at the Sanctuary, with her son. It’s the first time that she didn’t get her motherhood stolen. She’s Helena’s inseparable friend, another sheep. And she’s David’s adoptive mum (he’s a goat). She has such close ties with the rest of the Sanctuary residents because this is her family.
Would you find it fair if we gave her up for adoption and everything she now has was taken away from her?
