At Sky Ranch Sanctuary we love Christmas: the chaos, the over-spending, the overeating, sugar indulgence…all of it. And we love sharing our Christmas enthusiasm with our horses. Our horses get carrots every day, but on Christmas we add in some Mrs. Pasture’s Cookies and apple slices. (OK, our horses are not strangers to those extra treats on other occasions, but at Christmas it’s a special mix of all the favorites.)
And we are grateful that these wonderful creatures get to enjoy our human celebrations with a full stomach, shelter, recreation time, and TLC. It’s chilly here on the California Central Coast today, and it really does feel like Christmas.The horses have their winter coats, and they are feeling especially frisky on these cool days.
We at Sky Ranch want to wish everyone, two legged and four legged, the Happiest of Holidays.
Merry Christmas to all the horsies from Aly and Barrett!! I know Aly absolutely loves them and I’m sure Barrett will too when he figures out what they are!
Merry Christmas to the girl I grew up with who had a dog almost the size of a horse ( I remember Sheba!). Your sanctuary is so beautiful & I know the horses appreciate your loving care! They couldn’t be in better hands!
Thank you for sharing your story of spreading cheer! I just made a batch of holiday goodies to take to the mustang rescue ranch near my home. Same deal – pasture pure goodies that they don’t get on a regular basis. It’s cold here in Colorado but the sun is out most days and we’ve all got our “woolies” growing. I’m so glad to hear you all are doing well and are happy. Thanks for fitting them all into your hearts! A very happy holiday season and Merry Christmas to you all!!! Much love and cheer – Jennifer
