Libby Lou's Safe Haven

Libby Lou's Safe Haven We are a 501(c)3 vegan microsanctuary for cows and friends. After my parents passed away, I was emotionally lost. To thank her, I founded Libby Lou's Safe Haven!

I had tremendous support from friends and family but my first cow, Libby Lou, healed a part of my soul that no human could touch. We are a microsanctuary for cows and friends, striving to become a resource for our community to help those who have been abused, neglected, have special needs or uncertain futures. We also invite conversations about compassion. We are open by appointment only! Sundays

only. 11:00am-2:00pm

We cannot accommodate drop-in visitors. We kindly request a suggested donation of $50 per adult and $25 per child. This is just a suggestion, not a fee. Please see our website for more info on visiting. http://libbyloussafehaven.com

The rush to go out for recess and then there’s Libby Lou who just saunters. 🤣 She is absolutely the Queen around here! 🩷

Happy birthday to my big, beautiful goofy girl!

I had already named you when I was 8 years old. Your name was DaisyBelle, you were black and white and under a tree. It took awhile but that vision came true!

Momma loves you!! ❤️

Just sharing an update on our improvements to Sahara and Fergie’s area. They have plenty of personal space now plus the pasture during the day. Much better!

Libby Lou has discovered her voice at the new property! She makes a daily announcement when she is about to go out into the pasture!

Even as diligent as I am with fly masks, we’ve been having a hard time with eye infections since we moved. We’ve had to have the vet come out to see Maui and give him a big shot of antibiotics.

The vet said because this is a new environment and they have no immunity, we’re probably going to have a rough time the rest of the summer with the white-faced cows. They have a much higher probability of eye infections than the others because of lack of pigment. I’m keeping multiple tubes of Terramycin on hand. She told me the first sign of any squinting or watering start applying the medicine 2-3 times per day.

It took weeks but Maui’s eye recovered without vision loss. In the photo, he’s wearing his backup fly mask while the other was in the wash. Such a good boy!

Thank you to Adam for installing the new misters along the shaded fence line! It’s going to be over 100 degrees everyday this week so I’m hoping this will help the moos cool off!

Drumroll… introducing the debut of pasture #2! Just look at all the munchies out there, something that was in short supply in Dulzura. Happy moos and donks!

I haven’t made this public until now, but I’ve begun writing a book! It’s a memoir about my journey to start a cow sanctuary.

I’m under no pretense that I’ll become a best selling author tho I do have a platform albeit a small one.. there aren’t many of us cow sanctuary founders. If being an author can bring in a few more donations or open up any avenues for me to talk more about overcoming challenges, the animals or veganism I welcome that!

I’m not sharing this to say “look at me” etc. I just want to hold myself accountable. I’ve already learned writing a book is hard and a long process even when it’s your own story!

I want to say thank you to my 3 author friends.Jodie Green Vegan, Billy Thompson and Alice Cangemi Po***ck for their encouragement and willingness to share knowledge about the process.

Have been saving the ball for the new, flat property. 5 minutes later, Auggie Norman was giving the ball kisses! Such a big brave boy! 🩷
