Horse rescue NRW

„Your Why don't you look after animals... can you help? Right away?“

So began a desperate call from the neighbourhood - and when we arrived, the reality hit us like a blow:

Over 20 horses, including pregnant mares with foals at their sides and in their bellies, stood hungry, weakened and neglected in their own manure.

Ribs visible, hooves much too long, inflamed eyes, injuries... Life that was silently crying for help.

The owner was suddenly torn from her life. All her animals were left behind, without care.

And then YOU arrived - our super angel Rebecca coordinated first aid together with the relatives in no time at all and the network of helpers worked their magic.

Thanks to your quick efforts, food arrived within two hours. At the same time, we liaised closely with the veterinary office and our vet to carry out a medical assessment of the horses and plan the next steps. Specialised foster homes were ready and waiting. The first horses had already been brought to safety.

And then, in the midst of all the chaos - a miracle:

The first pregnant mare lies down... labour begins... and a little foal sees the light of day. A moment of hope that touched us all deeply.

Little life, we promise you: you will be loved, cared for and safe - in wide paddocks, with a full belly and gentle hands.

But no sooner had we breathed a sigh of relief than the next cries for help: Dogs, cats, other animals...

Our magic angels are working tirelessly.

Now we need YOU - urgently.

We need:

- Fodder, hay, straw

- Build-up and special feed (please only according to the list!)

- Veterinary care

- Worming cures & medication

- Hoof trimming - maybe you know someone who can help free of charge?

Every donation counts - whether in kind or financial:

Please contact Rebecca for donations in kind and feed (only the types indicated, as the horses can react sensitively to changes in feed).
