Useless Animal Farm Sanctuary Inc.

... good for nothing but love!!

Updated: March, 2010

Mission Statement: Offer sanctuary to farm animals, attempt to help place those we can't take, educate on the plight of farm animals and (whenever possible) offer assistance to any animal in need.

Sanctuary Facts:

A sanctuary for 15 years, 10 years ago we became non-profit and 8 years ago - a tax exempt 501c3 organization.

We respond to approximately 20 phone calls/emails each day, helping animals and the people who care about them.

We have over 250 permanent animal residents and, in the past 8 years, have cared for over 450 domestic, 450 farm and 50 wildlife animals.

This organization is run by 2 volunteers (one full time/one part time). They are Rosemary and Larry Spear. 1 afternoon each week No Lu Pomales helps with animal care and quality control.

Sanctuary animals are not used for food, experimentation, labor or breeding. Hence, the name "Useless Animal Farm Sanctuary".

Factory Hens from NY.

 Suffering animals and horrific slaughter houses are NOT OK?  We support legislation intended to stop inhumane treatment of farmed animals!

always curious - Cracker steer "Lorenzo"!

We regularly foster bunnies for the Gainesville Rabbit Rescue. Our rabbit area consists of 12 cages and a large exercise pen.

The emu's and llama's are "exotics" which began as "farm animal fads" and soon became displaced.

We ask you to be receptive to issues regarding treatment of farm animals. For more information, please refer to specialty organizations on our "LINKS" page.

Blondie and Dagwood-orphaned by a Dog Attack

Our 250+ farm animals are retired, rescued, or displaced. Most will live out their lives at the sanctuary.

P.B. pigs: Rosie, Ollie and Sissy

When space permits, we foster dogs, puppies, cats and kittens for other rescues.

Puppies fostered for the Humane Society of N.E. Florida

Since farm animals are not bred for longevity, giving them a quality life can be expensive!  Your contributions are greatly appreciated!
