Farm Animal Adoption
Give a farmed animal a safe, loving, forever home
Every adoption creates more space for our team to rescue the next animal who needs our help. View the animal profiles below and see if your next family member is waiting for you at Pasado’s Safe Haven.
Cows
Peaches, Journey, Tonka, & June
AGE: 6, 4, 5, and 3 years old
SEX: Male & Female
Our sweet family of four are looking for a new home!
Peaches was rescued from a dairy farm that had transitioned from milking to breeding/impregnating cows to be sold at auction for slaughter. When we brought Peaches here to the sanctuary, she gave birth to Journey in less than 2 days after her arrival.
June (Tonka’s mom) & Tonka were rescued by a woman that saved them from meat production. When her circumstances changed and she was no longer able to care for them, we brought June and Tonka to the sanctuary to join Peaches and Journey, and they formed their small but loving herd.
Peaches has a calm energy about her and will often lay down with her head in her caregiver's lap. Journey is a younger cow with an old soul. He loves attention and will call out to his favorite people when he sees them. June is our sassy gal who is interested in people but a bit unsure still. She has been making great progress and is warming up to pets. Tonka is the sweetest cuddle bug and will also lay with his caregivers. He loves scratches and snacks!
Journey, Peaches, Tonka, and June are looking for a family that know that they are friends and not food. These 4 are very tight knit and must be adopted together. If you have the space and ability to give them a safe home, please fill out an application today!
Belle & Abbey Rose
AGE: 7 Years
SEX: Female
This beautiful, bonded pair of cows are looking for their forever home together. They both enjoy spending time with their caregivers and will snuggle in the pasture resting their heads on your lap for a snooze. They love to be brushed and eagerly accept their favorite treats – bananas and watermelon! Abbey Rose can be shy at first but once she gets to know you, she will be your BFF. Belle is the more confident girl and Abbey Rose will look to her for comfort.
Billy
AGE: 2 Years
SEX: Male
Billy was living with a family that was not appropriately caring for him and subsequently rescued by a concerned neighbor. Unfortunately, they did not have adequate space for Billy, and reached out to us to see if we could take him in. Since he arrived at the sanctuary, he’s been stealing hearts with his sweet doe-eyes. Billy was not raised with other cows and spent most of his life playing with his caregiver who played with him like he was a puppy. He has calmed down a lot since living with other cows but can still get a little excitable when he interacts with humans.
Billy is a sweet cow who just needs some time learn how to interact with humans and other cows. He would do well with a young, small breed of cow who can play with him and match his energy. He needs a caregiver who will be patient and work with him on calm behaviors.
Billy will need to be adopted into a home that understands he is a friend and not food. He will also need at least 1 other cow to live with, as cows are very social and need a herd for their emotional well-being.
Hope
AGE: 5 Years
SEX: Female
Before coming to the sanctuary, Hope was being advertised for sale online, and a concerned citizen forwarded the ad to us because of Hope’s poor condition – she was extremely emaciated and full of parasites. We rescued her, provided the much-needed medical interventions, and Hope began to thrive. Now, she is healthy, parasite-free, and an appropriate weight.
Hope will need to be adopted into a home that understands she is a friend and not food. She will also need to live with at least one other cow, as they are social animals that need a herd.
Goats
Victor
AGE: 13 Years
SEX: Male
Victor is a big goat with an even bigger personality. He is highly food motivated and loves any snacks, but his favorites are blueberries and sharing a popsicle on a hot day. He makes strong bonds with his caregivers and will wag his tail when they approach. This mischievous boy can be a bit pushy at first but turns into a huge cuddle bug once he makes friends.
Sheep
Mikey, Celia, Brigitta, and Boo
AGE: 7 and 9 Years
SEX: Females
Mikey, Celia, Brigitta, and Boo are a group of sweet bonded senior ladies. Although they are shy at first, once they learn to trust you, they become very affectionate. They love to snack on apples and hang out with each other in their pasture and barn.
Hobart and Jameson
AGE: 2 & 3
SEX: Males
The impressive horns of these two is likely the first thing you’ll notice about this striking duo! Hobart (2) and Jameson (3) are very playful with each other and with the other sheep they are with. Since both have large horns, their play style between the two is intense and very fun to watch! It’s also impressive to see them dial back the play level when they are playing with the others.
While Hobart and Jameson are shy with humans, they are great at picking up on routines and understanding what you are asking of them. Around dinner time, Caregivers can ask the boys to go to bed and they will run to their stall and wait inside for dinner. They would do well in a home with other playful animals and patient, understanding humans who will take the time to figure out what makes them comfortable! They enjoy routines, and are curious and warming up to people. Jameson will eat treats from your hand.
Alpacas
Larry, Curly and Moe
AGE: 10 & 12 years
SEX: Males
Larry (10), Curly (12) and Moe (10) are a very playful and curious bunch. Larry and Moe are two peas in a pod. They spend most of their time together playing or exploring their enclosure. Larry tends to lead the way and chooses what the pair will do next, while Moe tends to be the shyer of the two and follows Larry’s lead. He will wait until Larry says it is time for bed at the end of the day before he makes his way into their room for the night.
Curly is his own alpaca. His curiosity is unmatched and he is not afraid to investigate new animals, people, or objects that he sees over the fence. Curly lives by his daily routine and gets very excited when it is time for food at the end of the day. He will often race to his room ahead of you, and then will turn around run back to where you are to make sure you are still coming before running right back to his room.
These boys were part of a rescue where they were not being cared for and had little to no human interaction. This led to them being wary of people and harder to handle. Curly is on long term medication to level out his mood and reduce his "curiosity with no personal space” tendencies. Setting boundaries and keeping up with his medication and routine are key! This can take some time but as long as you stick to it, he does wonderful.
Their ideal home looks like: Larry, Curly, and Moe’s ideal home would involved an experienced alpaca handler who can provide them with their own pasture (they should not share a pasture or shelter with other animals) where they can relax and enjoy each other’s company. They would need a patient and understanding family who is willing to keep to a routine and give space when they need it -- they very much like to do their own thing and always will.
Pigs
Violet
AGE: 6 years
SEX: Female
Violet is a happy potbelly who loves attention! When she sees her caregivers coming up to the yard, she will RUN as fast as she can, even if that means sprinting up from the bottom of the yard! In fact, she even has races with one of our Caregivers — running up and down the yard together. Violet is the first to greet people at the gate and the first to flop over for belly rubs. Violet is very people oriented – she likes to be where her people are and to be included in whatever you are doing. Violet is very smart and would be an excellent pig to teach tricks or harness training (she has already done a bit of this). She just wants to please!
It's important to note that Violet has been on a weight loss journey and will do best in a home with a family that understands her dietary needs so she can maintain a healthy weight.
Because of her larger-than-life personality and extra sass, other pigs find her to be a bit rude. Because of this, Violet will do best as the only pig in her new family.
Amy
AGE: 9 Years
SEX: Female
Amy is a friendly, attention seeking potbelly looking for her forever home. She would love to be adopted with one or more of her siblings (Doll, Donna, Oogie, Rory, Skelly, and Zero) and gets along well with everyone.

Burrito & Pinky
AGE: 13 & 14 Years
SEX: Male & Female
Burrito and Pinky are a lovely, bonded pair of potbellies who have been wonderful parents to their many offspring (who are also with us awaiting adoption to their forever homes!). They are sweet, social, and love belly scratches. They are looking for a home where they can enjoy their golden years together.
Otie
AGE: 5
SEX: M
Otie is a super happy outgoing pot belly that loves having his tummy rubbed. If he's not lounging in the sun, you can probably find him checking in on his friend Charlie - his caregivers report they've become extremely close and it's cute watching their pot belly bromance develop. Otie is also helpful! He loves to assist with dinner prep by supervising his caregiver closely and nudging her left calf to encourage her and speed up dinner time. His caregivers believe that in time he could even learn to walk in a harness/leash.
This sweet boy is looking for his new forever home (hint hint that he would love to go home with Charlie!)
Louie
AGE: 7
SEX: M
This sweet boy is looking for his new human BFF!
Louie loves people and loves interacting with them. He reportedly lived in a home and did well as an inside pig prior to arriving at the sanctuary. He is battling some arthritis though, so he will need a home with no stairs. Here at the sanctuary, Louie is using a ramp for his mobility issues and soaking up all the snuggles with his caregivers.
We believe Louie would do well as a single pig.
Charlie
AGE: 14 years
SEX: Male
Charlie loves being inside on a comfortable bed, is harness trained, and loves his hoomans. Charlie is an elderly pig with arthritis so while he isn’t fast, he’ll still slowly make his way over to you for snacks and snuggles.
When Charlie's best friend Elmo passed away suddenly, he was sad and felt very alone. He has since developed a blossoming bromance with Otie pig, and has kept his spot as top pig in his yard.
*Charlie was previously kept as a house pig and would make a great indoor companion (as long as he still had some outdoor access!).
Nanni and Noodles
AGE: 6 years
SEX: Female
Nanni and Noodles were rescued from a backyard butcher. Noodles prefers snacks over anything else! She is a bit timid with strangers, but allows her care team to give her back scratches and belly rubs. She just needs to get to know you well first. Nanni is very friendly with people! She loves belly rubs and playing in water (mud), while her sister munches on treats. Nanni is a beautiful spotted girl who is never seen far from her equally as beautiful sister.
Poppy, Rose and Sweetpea
AGE: 2 years
SEX: Female
Poppy, Rose and Sweetpea made the long journey to the sanctuary from Oregon – originally part of the PNW 250 Pig Rescue. These three girls stick together – if one pig wants to do something, they all have to do it! But they have their own quirks and endearing qualities.
Rose is the gentle giant of the bunch (and a couch potato). Rose especially likes to lay in the mud wallows while supervising the others. Sweetpea’s ears flap in the wind when she runs and it’s THE cutest thing. She is always ready for a belly rub.
These three girls show us everyday just how strong they are by overcoming their sad history and continuing to trust and enjoy people.
