Pasado's Pen Pals

Connect with the animal residents of Pasado’s Safe Haven from afar through our internationally recognized pen pal program.

CONNECT WITH OUR ANIMAL PEN PALS

Participate in Pasado’s Pen Pals by choosing an animal resident from our pen pal list below and write them a letter! And, once the animals receive their letters, you might just get something in return!

Letters can be sent to P.O. Box 171, Sultan, WA 98294 Attn: Maddie Henning (please include first name and age). If you are sending in letters from a classroom, please include the teacher’s name and class grade with the Pen Pal letters. Reach out to our education team at education@pasadosafehaven.org with questions.

Meet the animal pen pals

Our friendly animal residents can't wait to hear from you!

Violet

Oink, oink! I am a friendly girl that likes to meet new humans. Some of my passions in life are napping and snacking, but I also love to explore my sanctuary yard. I hope you’ll write to me so I can share all my fun facts about pigs!!
(She/Her)

Victor

Hay there! There's nothing I love more than a fresh pile of hay and a new friend to meet! I am a big goat with a big personality to match. We can talk all about friends, our favorite games, and our favorite snacks!

A black cow with curved horns stands indoors on a straw-covered floor, curiously eyeing the camera as if searching for animal pen pals. Another cow is partially visible in the background.

Willa

Moo! Hi there. I'm Willa and I'm new around here but have already made many friends, and would love to be your friend too! I am a gentle giant who loves scratches behind the ears and eating all the snacks! Please send me a letter, so I can share stories about my cow herd at the sanctuary!

Ace

Hi friend! Ace is the name and treats are my game. I love meeting new people, but I prefer that they approach with a handful of snacks first. Once you're my pal, I love to spend time together grazing on grass. I can't wait to tell you all about what it's like to be a rescued llama at the sanctuary!

Frank

Gobble! Gobble! I am a proud turkey who loves to talk, so I can't wait to talk to you! I love getting to show people how smart my turkey friends and I are.

A chicken with long, fluffy, and disheveled head feathers stands outdoors, facing the camera as if ready to write to its animal pen pals.

Shirley

Cock-a-doodle-doo! I'm a loud and proud rooster, known for having the best hairdo at the sanctuary. I hope you write to me so I can tell you all about my life with my flock and cool facts about chickens. Did you know that chickens are actually related to dinosaurs?
