I became vegan after reading Cathy Stevens book Where The Blind Horse Sings.  If you can't visit Catskills Animal Sanctuary, you can learn about by reading this book or by going online and becoming a member to support the animals.

Catskill Animal Sanctuary is truly a healing place where kindness and love rule. The animals inspired me to go vegan when I turned 40, and to live a more compassionate life. These amazing critters have so much to teach us :)

I went to Poplar Springs Animal Sanctuary yesterday for my 24th Birthday!  Its in Poolesville, MD, outside Washington, DC.  It was an incredible experience.  A little chicken fell asleep in my hands and a goat named Chelsea would follow us around and snuck into the pigs barn to get more attention from us!  Its so beautiful to hear their stories of rescue and healing and know that they have a safe loving home for the rest of their lives.  

I want to play with those animals!  OMG I wish I could adopt the little piggie.  So, so , so very cute!

One of these days I'm going to visit one of the california animal sanctuaries :)

My new book, sharing tales of happiness and hope on the Castkill Animal Sanctuary, is now out.  You can see more info on it at http://animalcampbook.com.

Also, just wanted to point out, that we often reserve a chartered bus to bring up NYC residents to the farm at least once every season. More info can be found at our website http://casanctuary.org

Took my nieces and nephew there last summer to see the animals. Their favorites were the ducks (because they had their own pond) and the piggys sleeping in the mud. One of the turkeys was taller then my then 2 yr old niece she was so happy petting him after the initial fright wore off.

I live in the Hudson Valley in New York.There are a bunch of animal sanctuaries in the New York area and I'm hoping to visit one this summer.

That is so great you posted the Catskill sanctuary! Last weekend I visited the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary (www.woodstocksanctuary.org)...which was my first time visiting one and LOVED it. I am from the area and had no idea about the one in Saugerties, so thank you so much!!!
