Unexpected Friendship Saves Cow from Slaughter

At Safe Haven Farm Sanctuary, a surprising friendship between Owen, a rescued steer, and a runaway cow destined for slaughter led to an unexpected rescue. The cow, having escaped from a nearby farm, was found outside the sanctuary’s fence, keeping company with Owen. Sanctuary staff, upon discovering her plight and impending fate, spoke with the cow’s owner and persuaded him to transfer her to Safe Haven instead of sending her to slaughter. This act of compassion saved her life, allowing her to join Owen in the sanctuary’s peaceful pastures where they now spend their days grazing together. This heartwarming story highlights the sanctuary’s mission to provide a safe haven for animals in need and the remarkable bonds that can form across species.
