A beautiful new chapter begins for this family. ❤️

The babies stepped onto grass for the very first time under their mama’s watchful eye. Victoria and Michele soaked in the momentous moment of their homecoming (and doubling our flock!).

It’s hard not to think about all the things they’ve never known until now—the feeling of sunshine, fresh air, soft grass beneath their feet.

Some moments don’t need many words…Just a family together, exactly where they’re meant to be, and the gratitude for being their sanctuary.

We’ve been waiting to introduce you..🤍🐑
Meet Rebecca, Willow, River, and Winnie!

Earlier this spring on a farm, Rebecca gave birth to twins, Willow and River. Not long after, she developed serious health complications and was unable to nurse her babies, who had to be bottle-fed.

As we followed their story and remained in contact with the farmer caring for them, we hoped that one day we might be able to welcome Rebecca and her lambs to Rosie’s.

Then something unexpected happened: A neighboring farmer had a lamb (Winnie) whose mother was also unable to nurse her. Since Willow and River were already being bottle-fed, Winnie joined them. Sweet Rebecca took her in as her own.

The three lambs were raised together—and before long, River and Winnie became inseparable. When the opportunity finally came to bring Rebecca and her babies to Rosie’s, everyone agreed that Winnie belonged with them, too.

So what began as a mother and her twins became a beautiful family of four. Rebecca, Willow, River, and Winnie arrived just now and are now settling into quarantine in the horse barn, where they’ll spend the next two weeks receiving veterinary care, getting to know our team, and adjusting to their new home.

We’re so grateful to welcome this sweet family to Rosie’s. As always, providing sanctuary begins with excellent care. Veterinary exams, vaccinations, diagnostics, nutrition, and ongoing medical support are all part of helping new residents thrive. If you’d like to help us provide everything this family needs, we’d be deeply grateful for your support.

Welcome home, Rebecca, Willow, River, and Winnie. 💜

The man was too stunned to speak 😂😂😂

Poor Bear lives with FOUR ladies who keep him humble. Here he is sharing what was clearly a very important update while just living his best life until Sunshine grumped at him to quit it! 😝

It’s Gloria’s world. The rest of us are just elevated surfaces. 🦃👑

Also, can we talk about what an angel Marty is for tolerating her love language?! 🤣🐽💞

Jade would like a word with anyone who thinks chickens are all the same…

Our tiny bantam hen has somehow appointed herself protector of the giant Cornish girls. She crows like a rooster, stands watch over the hens who are easily four times her size, and protects and grooms her friends when they have their foot soaks.

Flocks truly are very complex social worlds! Chickens recognize dozens of individuals, form friendships, establish hierarchies, communicate specific information to one another, and develop distinct roles within their communities.

Jade has simply decided hers is head of security, personal groomer, and honorary rooster since we do not have any male birds. 🤣 You go, girl!!

We’re so grateful to and producer for helping Mickey and Moose’s story reach even more people.

This moment is really a testament to the power of storytelling. Cow Trip, the beautiful documentary created by , has introduced millions of people to Mickey and Moose and opened countless conversations about the realities of the dairy industry that many people simply never knew.

After watching the film, Parrish was deeply moved by the boys and inspired to learn more—leading to this CBS News feature and another opportunity to share their story.

A huge thank you to Joanna and Jared, Parrish and CBS News, and everyone who has watched and shared Cow Trip. Every person who meets Mickey and Moose is an opportunity to expand our circle of compassion—and that kind of change has a way of reaching far beyond two cows.

And if you haven’t, head over to ‘s YouTube channel to watch Cow Trip!

‼️ From unwanted dairy calves to . ❤️🐮

Tune in today on your local CBS affiliate to see Mickey and Moose featured nationwide!

After watching Cow Trip, the film created by Joanna Zelman that airs on The Dodo’s YouTube channel, CBS producer Parrish Smith was deeply moved by the boys’ story and surprised to learn the reality that male calves are often treated as byproducts of the dairy industry.

We’re so grateful to Joanna and her dad, Jared, Parrish, CBS News, and everyone who has helped share Mickey and Moose’s journey with the world. We can’t wait for more people to meet these two very special boys.

PS: How cute is it that, four years later, Mickey still recognizes Jared and greets him like an old friend every time he visits? 😭😍
