Clover - SAFE

I am Clover

Clover arrived at SAFE at the very beginning of May 2021.

The first in a series of ducklings we’ve kept and others we’ve placed. There was a craze in Montreal to adopt ducklings thanks to a post on TikTok urging their adoption. Young people sold them on street corners or in schoolyards.

Responsible parents tried to place them, but many were abandoned in parks or on the streets.

Clover immediately attached herself to Catherine and would scream in fear She had to be close to her and watch her work at the computer or at the kitchen counter preparing meals.

To avoid panicking completely, Clover would fall asleep around her neck, then spend the rest of the night in a carrier on her pillow, so as not to lose sight of the human who had become her mother.

Then Clover grew up and joined 5 other little ducklings who became her true companions. She forgot her human a bit like children do when they leave home ;)

Clover is now part of a tight group of 4 ducks. Ferdinand, d’Artagnan and Dudley never leave her side. They can be seen walking on the sanctuary, swimming and diving on the pond, or simply resting in the shade near the house.

Clover is the males’ exaggerated center of attention, but in exchange they protect her and give her priority over all the food bowls and goodies they discover on the ground and at the bottom.

Bailey

Bailey arrived on September 23, 2018. She is a dairy cow who could not produce milk, as in principle sterile. Like any sterile dairy cow, she had to be sent to slaughter.

Silver

I am the most beautiful looking poney of all, don’t tell them ;) But I am a bit shy with humans while being kind and sweet.

Russell

I’m the greediest of them all, maybe even the whole Sanctuary! For me, everything tastes good and I don’t hesitate to do pirouettes to get what I want!

Buzz

I’m a sweet and adorable goat, I admit, I’m a little scared of humans. No, but they are so big and imposing! I stay in my quiet corner when they come to clean the big one :)
