Now in its eleventh year
of operation, The
Furrytale Farm is all about animal
rescue, rehabilitation and education. Our eight-acre
facility is located on Bainbridge Island in Washington State
and is home to abused
and abandoned animals from all over the country and beyond. Our experienced staff and irreplaceable corps
of volunteers, who are dedicated to animal
rescue and rehabilitation, labor tirelessly on
behalf of the animals, in hopes of healing both their bodies
and their souls.
Those animals
that can be successfully rehabilitated
are adopted to good homes, and those that, for
whatever reason, are not adoptable have a good home with
us for the rest of their lives. But our work doesn’t
end there. Abused
and abandoned animals have much to teach us, and so a big
part of our animal rescue and rehabilitation work involves education. If, through working with abused
and abandoned animals, we can teach one child or one adult
at a time, that kindness to animals comes back to us a hundredfold,
then we can achieve our ultimate goal: to reduce animal
abuse. Currently, our animal
rescue and rehabilitation program extends to horses, ponies, mules, donkeys,
goats, potbellied pigs, dogs, cats, and rabbits.
In future, we hope to be able to broaden our reach to rescue
other kinds of animals and reduce animal abuse. The Furrytale
Farm is a no-kill animal shelter.
