This is a permanent shelter for the animals providing kindness, knowledgeable care, and respect. 

All of our animals are rescues. Since we are a sanctuary, all animals regardless of background or disability, will live out their lives in peace, with your help.

What is the difference between the treatment of animals at Sunrise Sanctuary

and their treatment at modern C.AF.O.'$?

(Confined Animal Feeding Operations)

 

 
Unlike modern factory farms,
Sunrise Sanctuary animals are free to:

bask in the warm sun,

shelter themselves in the barns,

have sunlight,
 
freedom to move,

healthy food and water provided daily,

roost in barns,

exercise freely, 

and socialize in an abuse-free natural setting. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
At Sunrise, animals live out their natural lives with proper veterinary care, respect and love. 
Unfortunately, the days of the old style farm are long gone, to make way for massive inhumane "factory farms"
 and the notable environmental impacts they have on people, animals and vegetation.

 

 
 


Did you know each animal has a personality?
 
Come visit!  You will love it...
