Rescue, Rehabilitate, Rehome Farm Animals

Every year, millions of unwanted farmed animals suffer an unimaginable fate.

These animals are the forgotten ones. Some are deemed a waste product of the dairy industry, others are used as egg laying machines their entire short life, never seeing natural day light or feeling the sunshine on their feathers.

‘Til The Cows Come Home is Australia’s leading animal adoption charity for farmed animals. Our mission is to rescue suffering farmed animals, rehabilitate them in short term care and re-home them into safe forever loving homes.

We’re expanding the term ‘companion animal’ to include farmed animals. They too can have a place in our homes. Hens can give us eggs, without forcing families to contribute to the cruelty of intensive farms. Calves can mow our acreage and save on fossil fuels, labour and repairs. But most of all, these animals will give us love and bring us joy and friendship.

Our extra ordinary volunteers are on the frontline every day, facing new challenges and the sad reality of animal neglect. They see first- hand the cause and effect of profit driven practices that force farmers to treat animals as inert objects. Practices that are dictated by corporations that make no allowance for animal welfare or the cost to the environment.

‘Til The Cows Come Home will continue with our mission until there are no more lives of farmed animals to save because they will no longer be treated as a waste product.

We invite you to join the animals on their journey to love and freedom by adopting and/or donating.

We work directly with both farmers and families to save and rehome unwanted farm animals. If you are interested in adopting you can check out our animals in need of urgent adoption here.

We rely on public donations to keep our mission going, if you want to support us, you can do so here – we really appreciate it!

Our mission is as follows:

Rescuing domestic and farm animals, including those that are unwanted, mistreated, ill, injured, unviable in farming, or deemed waste in agriculture;

b. operating foster homes where the above animals may be rehabilitated to allow them to be adopted; and

c. finding and placing rescued domestic and farm animals in permanent homes, and providing support and assistance to those who adopt them.

Founder

Donna Wild

Australia has long had foster homes for people, cats, dogs and wildlife. I thought “Why not farmed animals too?”.

Today ‘Til The Cows Come Home is Australia’s leading online adoption agency for farmed animals. We have foster carers across Australia enabling adopters to turn their homes into forever homes for these deserving souls. From ducks to camels, feather, fur or skin we help them all.

Our mission is to save unwanted farmed animals by working directly with farmers and families to rehome them into loving, forever homes. Our sophisticated adoption process and foster care program together make for a world where people are progressively viewing farmed animals with the same warmth, and to offer the same rights, afforded to domestic pets.

Every life that TTCCH touches, we change their world forever.
