It all started with a simple drop-off of cat food at the Langley Animal Protection Society which turned into a heartwarming two-hour visit. Among the many animals in need, there was one special creature—a sheep.
Maggie was picked up two weeks earlier in terrible condition. She had been moved from a foster home to a horse rescue and desperately needed a forever home. Her eyes bulged with fear, her wool was patchy and matted, and she had collapsed once. Yet, the vet believed she had a chance.
With the help of two volunteers, we created an area and brought her home. To our surprise, she relaxed almost immediately and began grazing. Maggie knew she was finally home.
Maggie has a long road ahead to gain weight and trust. So far, she’s seen a cat, a pig, and Noodles, another little sheep – each encounter widening her eyes in fear before she slowly relaxes, feeling safe.
We named her after a 12-year-old friend of the farm who loved animals and recently passed too young. We honor her memory by helping Maggie thrive.
