Fate brought these two gentle souls together, will fate lead them into your forever home?
Bown and Albert were born into this world as the byproduct of their mother’s milk production – their life worth nothing more, a future uncertain.
Just like humans, cows need to give birth to produce milk. As a result, each year in Australia, over 400,000 calves are born on dairy farms and are deemed as “waste” or “surplus”.
Male calves are often “disposed of” on the farm or sent on a truck to a slaughterhouse within the first few weeks of their life, as they offer little financial gain to a farmer as they cannot be used for future breeding or milk production.
This is the heartbreaking reality thousands of calves face each day on dairy farms across Australia.
Bowen and Albert’s destiny had different plans for them, rescued by our team, they were no longer facing a grim reality.
Bowen and Albert are lucky to now be safe in short-term foster care. Thanks to the generosity of donors, two more precious lives have now been spared.
Now healthy and feeling cared for Bowen and Albert are ready to find their forever home where they will be loved as companions, not commodities.

He adds a layer of quiet loyalty to their companionship, and his subtle affection is deeply rewarding.
