Lovely Emma first walked into our lives with her twin sister Emily in May 2020. Both the most gentle sheep, they were orphans at only 3 months old.

Emma & Emily were used for breeding when they were under a year old. Heartbreakingly, we ended up losing Emily. Heavily pregnant, Emily gave birth unattended. Sadly, her newborn lambs did not survive. She was then brought in to nurse orphaned lambs but wasn’t properly checked for infection after the trauma of her own delivery, so she died a week later. Emma felt the loss of her sister and cried for her twin, it was truly heartbreaking.

Emma went on to have twins Domino and Albert (who are also up for sponsor) at the bottom of Hayley’s garden. She was the sweetest, most gentle doting mummy to her babies and then a year later gave birth to little girls Victoria and Emily, named after her lost sister.

Luckily we were able to save Emma and all four of her babies and are all now living happy and safe lives at the sanctuary!
