From: Cody Winchester [mailto: cowin@med.umich.edu] SLAUGHTERHOUSE NEED YOUR HELP NOW! Please forward to anyone you think may be able to help - either financially or physically. Thanks. HUNDREDS OF ANIMALS SEIZED FROM SLAUGHTERHOUSE NEED YOUR HELP Animal Acres, a Los Angeles area farmed animal sanctuary, is providing emergency rescue care for hundreds of animals seized by humane officers from a California slaughterhouse. The sanctuary urgently needs volunteers to care for the rescued sheep, goats, chickens and other animals. Several of the sheep are severely sick or injured and require intensive care and veterinary treatments. Many of the animals are covered in manure and urine, and need extensive grooming. Others are severely emaciated and will need special feedings. Volunteer emergency caregivers are needed from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily.
Please note: The sanctuary does not have time to call back individuals who can help? They are requesting you leave a message on their voicemail or send an email with the dates and times you will be coming to the sanctuary to help. Please call: 661-269-0986 or email: info@animalacres.org Donations are also needed to purchase bedding, feed, medical supplies and veterinary treatments for the slaughterhouse victims. The rescue effort will cost thousands of dollars and Animal Acres urgently needs your financial support. To make a donation online, please visit: www.animalacres.org or mail your emergency care donation to: Animal Acres 5200 Escondido Canyon Road Acton, CA 93510. Animal Acres is a Los Angeles farmed animal sanctuary and compassionate living center directed by Farm Sanctuary co-founder Lorri Bauston. Thank you for your support.
