From research lab to Kindness Ranch — Help make a miracle!
IN THIS DISASTER WATCH:
FROM KINSHIP CIRCLE: We were asked to raise funds — so eight sheep can leave a California laboratory and begin new lives at Kindness Ranch in Wyoming. Please support this miracle by donating to their relocation and care. "Retirement" from animal experimentation usually means death. These "used-up" animals get a second chance!

Support Release Of Lab Sheep To Sanctuary
SOURCE: Karen Straight, Outreach Director, The Kindness Ranch
8/3/08, From Karen Straight, Kindness Ranch — We need your support to raise funds critical to the transportation of 8 sheep from a California research laboratory to Kindness Sanctuary, where
they’ll spend the rest of their lives in comfort. We have 1,000 acres, with excellent fencing and water supply. Please check out photos here: www.kindnessranch.org
DONATE TO GIVE ANIMALS USED FOR RESEARCH A CHANCE
YOUR TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION HELPS BRING THESE SHEEP TO KINDNESS RANCH! Their transport from the research laboratory needs to occur around August 8, 2008. A professional transporter, with experience relocating sheep, has offered his services at a reduced rate.
Laboratories rarely relinquish research animals to rescue groups. This particular lab has reached out in trust by releasing their sheep into our care. While this is not yet the norm among research facilities, it offers us the precedent to urge more labs to do the same.
Eight lucky sheep will have the chance to live in a natural setting — and they’ll also pave the way for the release of more laboratory animals in the future.
We hope this story has a happy ending… And that you’ll be able to read about the safe transport of eight sheep to Kindness Ranch on our website, www.kindnessranch.org
Many thanks — and please forward this to anyone you think may want to donate too!
