Sweet Ciara went off to foster this winter, at a lovely spot just down the road from SAFE. Her foster family had just lost their gelding, and were in need of a companion for their older mare. In the herd settings she had been tried with here, Ciara was an easy-going and deferential pasture mate, which made her a top choice for slotting into a new environment. Her kind personality translates to her interactions with humans as well, making her easy to love and to be around for those on two and four legs alike.
Though at first Ciara was kept separate from her new herd mate, once they were introduced they became fast friends. Ciara’s foster mom reports that they seem very comfortable together, and that they will share from the same pile of hay without incident.
We are so thankful to this foster family for taking such wonderful care of Ciara, and for giving her a good friend in her home away from home!
