Hi, I’m Tal.
People say that I am full of joy and beauty, but when I arrived at the Freedom Farm Sanctuary I was gaunt and could barely move. I’m sure you wouldn’t be full of joy either if you were trapped in a small cage and your future was decided the day you were born. They planned to send me to the goat milk industry.
They told me what they had done to my mother, who also had once been a beautiful and playful young goat. I did not get to know her as we were separated when I was a newborn.
When I arrived at the Freedom Farm Sanctuary, I had al- ready lost faith in people— but the people here believed in me and did not give up, even when I could not suckle from a bottle. They were patient and encouraged me to try all the possible nipples available until they finally found the right one for me.
Today I am frolicsome and beautiful, thanks to FFS! If you want to come and join me jumping on the trampoline, I’ll be there in the late afternoon.
