A Home for Hooves Farm Sanctuary

A Home for Hooves Farm Sanctuary We provide a forever home for rescued farm animals who have been abandoned, seized by the S.P.C.A., or surrendered due to various circumstances.

We are a volunteer run, registered Charity organisation in Duncan BC, that offers a forever home for rescued farm animals who are abandoned, seized by the S.P.C.A., or surrendered due to various circumstances. Our Sanctuary was founded in September 2017 and we are the first and only Farm Sanctuary in Canada to be Accredited by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries. We currently care for near

ly 200 residents including pigs, goats, sheep, cattle, horses, donkeys, chickens, geese, ducks, turkeys, peafowl, dogs, guinea pigs, and cats. We ensure all our animals are provided with the best quality care and a safe home where they are able to live out their natural lives. We aim to advance education by providing workshops, seminars, classes, and presentations on animal practices, rescue, and care. In early 2019 we began an adoption and foster program to place healthy and well-suited, non-farm animals in safe and loving homes. Our Sanctuary provides a forever home for farm animals who are older, are difficult to place, have diverse needs, have behavioural issues, or require long term medical intervention. Our volunteers help us with the everyday care of the animals, social media, graphic design, fundraising, newsletter writing, and event planning, and ensure the animals are well cared for and our organisation runs smoothly. We would also like to acknowledge that our Sanctuary is located within the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Quw'utsun Nation, near the traditional village of Ts'alha'um.

And now for the bird cupcakes! 🧁🐔🦆🪿

Our chickens enjoyed a chicken-safe baked cupcake topped with berries, peas, corn, and lettuce, while the ducks and geese were treated to a refreshing frozen cupcake made with peas and corn.

As you can imagine, heads were moving at warp speed once the treats arrived, so these were the best photos we could capture during our Cupcake Convention on May 30! 📸😂

Thank you once again for your incredible support. Events like this are only possible because of our amazing community. Your generosity helps us provide special moments like these for all 230 animals in our care. ❤️

We tried to capture some photos of the cows enjoying their cupcakes, but that was no easy feat! Eddie’s cupcake disappeared in about 0.00005 seconds, far too fast for the camera to keep up. 📸🧁
Bobbie and Mickey, on the other hand, were a little more relaxed and actually showed some manners when it came to their treats. They gave us just enough time to snap a few photos before digging in! ❤️🐮

Well, that’s a wrap on our Great Cupcake Convention! 🧁❤️

We cannot thank our incredible community enough for your support and generosity. Caring for 230 rescued animals truly takes a village, and every cupcake, donation, share, and word of encouragement helps make it all possible.

As we celebrate another successful event, we want to shine a spotlight on one of the key people behind the scenes: our Facilities Director, Kirsti. If you saw this morning’s photo of Earl announcing the festivities or admired the spectacular cupcake display, you were witnessing Kirsti’s creativity and talent in action.

The beauty, charm, and magic of this event are a direct reflection of the love, care, and countless hours Kirsti pours into making it special for both our animals and our supporters. Her attention to detail and dedication help transform a simple celebration into something truly memorable.

Thank you, Kirsti, for bringing your vision, passion, and decorating magic to the Great Cupcake Convention year after year. We are so grateful for everything you do! ❤️

We will be sharing a video update this evening with the final total raised for the animals! Also, we hope you notice Ragnar's orange lipstick from his delicious goat cupcake!

The chickens are having an absolute blast with their chicken-approved cupcakes! Made with a special baked treat and topped with peas, corn, lettuce, and raspberries, these tasty creations are a flock favorite. As always, Patrick is proving what a gentleman he is by stepping aside and letting his ladies enjoy the first few pecks before joining in himself. 💛🐔🧁

Hooper was absolutely over the moon when he received his cupcake today! 🧁🐷

Unlike some of our other residents, the pigs get the kind of cupcake many of us would happily enjoy too, complete with icing and sprinkles! Watching Hooper dive into his special treat was pure joy and a reminder of how much these little celebrations mean to the animals.

Every cupcake helps make one of our residents feel extra loved and celebrated. 💕

Simon was one happy goat this morning! 🧁🐐 He was absolutely thrilled with his special cupcake and savored every delicious bite.

As part of our Great Cupcake Convention celebrations, all of our goats are receiving their very own custom-made goat cupcakes, and they are loving every moment (and every mouthful) of this special treat! 💛
