Molly and her foal URGENTLY need a sponsor!

Molly was rescued in February 2010 with 9 other Arabian horses. They were emaciated and kept tied inside on moutains of manure for 5 years. The only pregnant one in the herd was Molly and she just had her baby January 24th 2011 at 12:10 PM. It was the coldest day so far and the vet had to be called in cause baby was having a hard time. Molly was long overdue and kept her foal 20 extra days in her belly, causing her colostrum to leak out early. Poor baby was not able to get any. He is feeling a bit better today, but will need immune boosting medication and veterinary care for the next few weeks to ensure that he overcomes any infection that he may encounter. We sort of understand why he wanted to stay inside where he is warm and protected. He was born into a cold and cruel world but luckily for him he is under the care of Refuge RR for horses, so no matter how cold it gets outside, he will always be protected.

Please, help support Molly and her foal so they may receive all the best care and have a fighting chance to a happy and healthy life .
