Welcome to Spit Happens Farm Sanctuary!
We currently provide sanctuary to 22 llamas and alpacas, 7 mini-donkeys, a pony, a variety of poultry, as well as three rescue pups and 2 rescue cats. Our goal for the animals is to allow them to just “live” (or “llive” as the llamas would say) in a safe, comfortable, care-free environment. We strive to provide all of our animals with the comfort and love they deserve. Their joy and contentment is ours.
Our family of 22 llamas and alpacas range in age from 2 to 24. They are the most joyful animals. Each has his/her personality and together, they make a loving family. Our adventure with these beautiful animals started with two – Oakie and Cocoa. Oakie is the handsome face of our logo. Oakie and Cocoa were soon joined by Chestnut, Cinnamon, and Buttercup. We then rescued 7 alpacas from a fate that was unimaginable and together with the llamas, our “llamapaca” family was created when Cruz, Maestro, Sebastien, JT, Ivy, Brigadette and Calista joined the herd. . Hershey, Wafer, Nilla, Verdolet, Cranberry, Sundae, Teddy, Mondae, Manny, Luna, Apolla, Prancer and Maartina have rounded out the family. While we have lost a few of our beloved fur babies along the way (Cruz, Wafer and Calista have sadly passed), their memories remain strong here at the farm. If you ever need to smile, you only need to look into the sweet face of a llamapaca. Your day will be made.
Today the farm is home to 7 mini-donkeys: Mabel, Harley-Rose, Mr. Pebbles, Pearl, Donovan, Tucker and Pippa. We are also home to Roxalina, a/k/a Roxie, a beautiful Paso Fino. Mabel was our first mini-donkey, and when she arrived, as a wonderful surprise to us, she was pregnant with Harley-Rose. 6 days before Harley-Rose was born, Mr. Pebbles, or Mr. P as we affectionately call him, joined our family. The three were the cutest little family until Pearl was saved from an auction truck. Donovan and Tucker grew up together on a lovely farm in Vermont but when their owner could no longer care for them, were adopted to us through another rescue. At 27 years of age, they are our oldest residents, and bring us incredible joy with their sweet, gentlemanly personalities. Pippa is a little spit-fire, and while she prefers to keep to herself, the moments when she lets you in just warms your heart. And last but not least, Roxie joined the family almost 4 years ago. In the sweetest little twist of fate, she and Mr. P have become inseparable, and there’s nothing cuter than seeing the two of them constantly by each other’s side.
In addition to the llamapacas, minis and Roxie, our farm is home to chickens, guinea hens, ducks and a goose named Dudley, who has been the farm mascot for more than 23 years! He’s a character, and his stories are plentiful! Rounding out the farm are our three beloved rescue pups, JoJo, Etta and Skips, as well as our two cats, Cupcake (resident house cat) and Stella, who is our beloved barn kitty. Together we are all one big happy farm family!
