Curious, shy and lovable- Chester and Charlie will warm your heart with their unique and gentle personalities.
Chester and Charlie 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.
Chester and Charlie’s destiny had different plans for them, rescued by our team, they were no longer facing a grim reality.
Chester and Charlie 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 Chester and Charlie are ready to find their forever home where they will be loved as companions, not commodities.
