Sweet Mama & Ace

Sweet Mama & Ace

Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge, Pittsboro, North Carolina

Sweet Mama spent the first seven years of her life as a dairy goat, forced to provide her milk to the humans that claimed ownership of her rather than the kids she bore and likely did not see again. When a common dairy goat disease, CAE, started to show signs in her, she was considered useless and sent to auction. She escaped, found temporary shelter at another farm where she gave birth to twins. From there Sweet Mama and her kids Ace and Ivy came to true refuge at Piedmont, and there she will be cared for and treated as the loving individual she is, granted the opportunity to nurture her last children and herself for the first time.
