Wanda & Raisin is no longer looking for a new home

Wanda was born into this world as a commodity, and her future was uncertain. Raisin on the other hand was loved from the moment when she was born, but unable to be kept by her owner.

Male and female cows are commonly seen as commodities by humans, their existence valued by their use and monetary value. Whether it be as commodities for their milk, offspring, flesh or fur. Once they have given all that their bodies can, they are often sent on a truck to a slaughterhouse or “disposed of” on the farm.

We aren’t certain what Wanda’s fate would have been without rescue, but are sure that it would have been grim. This is the heartbreaking reality millions of cows face in Australia and around the world.  

Some male and female cows are loved family members like Raisin was, but this is just a small percentage. What makes some cows qualify as pets and others not, is decided by the perception of humans.

Though Wanda and Raisin’s destinies had different plans for them, both are now lucky to 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 Wanda and Raisin are ready to find their forever home where they will be loved as companions, not commodities.

Raisin and Wanda are a charming cow duo with a story as unique as they are. With their remarkable personalities and endearing quirks, they’ve captured the hearts of our Foster Carers and are now searching for a compassionate new family that can appreciate their charm and gentle nature.

Raisin came to us after being lovingly raised from a calf and has since blossomed into an affectionate and friendly cow, though she sometimes forgets her size. With patience, Raisin will happily indulge in a delicious treat and a sweet neck rub. She is full of love for her fellow animals, forming a heartfelt bond with other foster calves. Her friendship with Wanda, in particular, is as heartwarming as it is protective, ensuring that she is never left behind and gets her fair share.

On the other hand, Wanda is an absolute sweetheart who was surrendered by the farmer with a name already. Born with partial blindness in one eye and contracted tendons, her journey has been unique. Her slight impairment doesn’t hold her back; in fact, it adds to her charm. Wanda loves to bask in human attention, delighting in being walked, patted, and hand-fed treats. She has a delicate way of turning her head to focus her attention, effortlessly inviting affection and care. Her calm and slow-paced approach to life will bring any adopter loving companionship.

These two special girls are looking for an extra special family. A family that can offer them patience, love, and a nurturing environment. Wanda and Raisin are guaranteed to bring an abundance of love and gentle warmth to your life.

By welcoming Raisin and Wanda into your home, you are not just gaining a pair of delightful calves but offering them a future they could only dream of. Let’s give these little ones the second chance they so desperately need and deserve.
