The nineteenth of March 2020

goats, pigs

We are going to pause our March of Pigs for an opportunity for some quarantine fun and fundraising.

Cooped up inside, being socially distant, canceling plans, routines and holidays can be a huge bummer. Take a break from the chaos and enjoy a virtual tour of The Haven Zoo!

Just like everyone, the Haven is doing its part to support social distancing to stop the spread of coronavirus, and have closed their gates to in-person visitors. However, the Haven relies on donations to keep the animals healthy and fed. So you can support the Haven AND continue to practice good social distancing by booking a virtual tour of the zoo plus a special viewing of feeding time! Book your virtual tour here.

Scientists and public health experts have asked that we all keep at least six feet or two meters apart from one another. That can be a bit difficult to visualize. Perhaps some of our camelid pals from the Haven can help us out – a llama is about six feet long, so maintain a llama distance apart to stay safe and stop the spread! And of course, keep washing your hands.

goats

Sometimes things go upside down. You have days (perhaps weeks, months) where everything that could possibly go wrong seems to go wrong, and then all of a sudden it all kind of makes sense. Find comfort in the chaos. For example, you might think to yourself, “I can count on this blog to feature a picture of a goat every single day” and then lo and behold, there’s a donkey.

Not just any donkey, but Rocky from The Haven Zoo. Rocky is extra lucky because he has not one but two sponsors whose generous support helps to provide veterinarian visits, food and shelter. If you are interested in sponsoring an animal, like Rocky, Hutton the llama or any of the goats at The Haven, check out their sponsorship page.
