We’d like to welcome Thorne, the new baby colt!
On April 20, 2012 at approximately 10:00pm, we watched with baited breath as Rosie brought her new son into the world. Members of the staff rushed to her side from all over town to welcome him. Dr Katy Byrd was on hand, and after examining mother and baby, announced all appeared to be well. We could all breathe easy – he arrived safe and sound and Rosie is doing just fine.
This is a first for the CCSPCA. We’ve never had an equine birth before. He couldn’t have come at a more appropriate time. The beginning of a new season, a new direction…a new life. The future is bright indeed!
We would again like to thank all of those, that through their generous donations, assisted in bringing Rosie and the other horses in our care, back to good health. Without the support of the public, this would have been a much harder goal to achieve. The animals in our care, the staff, and volunteers appreciate your continued support during such trying times in this struggling economy.
To show our appreciation, we started the “Name the Baby Colt” contest which started April 25th and ended Wednesday, May 9th. Thank you to the entire community for your enthusiasm and joy with our new baby colt and sharing all of the interesting name choices! This is our way of sharing his new life and our new beginnings with you. We have had a lot of community support for the horses and this first-time event is possible because of that support.
