What attracted you the most to Luvin Arms?
Our family loves and respects animals. We have had many rescue pets over the years and have worked with various animal welfare groups, particularly to support spay and neuter programs. Our granddaughter, Lylah, has a genuine interest in caring for and working with animals of all types. We are always looking for opportunities to nurture that interest, and when we came across Luvin Arms we wanted to learn more about farmed animal rescues, an area we didn’t know much about.
What is a favorite memory of a resident, or a favorite experience at Luvin Arms?
We have made several visits to Luvin Arms and got to meet many of the animals, and it would be really hard to pick a favorite. We enjoyed getting close to the pigs and goats, and were particularly impressed with the enrichment-oriented training of the goats. Particular favorites were Garbanzo and Gelato. Lylah got a chance to work with Garbanzo, and had a great experience bonding with him.
What inspires you to donate to Luvin Arms?
We have been inspired to donate to Luvin Arms because we support its mission and commitment to helping these animals in need. We were particularly inspired by the people working and volunteering at Luvin Arms. Everyone that we met had a true passion for helping the animal residents. We would particularly note the time we spent with Robert and Emma who helped us get close to the animals, and learn about their circumstances and care.
Anything else you would like to share?
We are very pleased that Luvin Arms is there to help abandoned or abused farmed animals, and provide understanding of the needs of these animals. We look forward to our next visit, and to continuing to support Luvin Arms’ mission.
