Am getting ready to visit SASS in Sarnath from Copenhagen in a few weeks. Its been a long time since I've been away from the animals and the shelter... Much repair work to be done to roof, walls, our bull's bamboo hut, and many things besides! It should all be fun! Merry Christmas to all our loyal friends and supporters over the years from our animals... wuf wuf.

A visit from Copenhagen friends...

Yesterday, in the sweltering heat of late-May, Tara Thorsen and her friend from Copenhagen in Denmark, paid a loving visit to SASS ashrama. I understand that all the animals - including our little bull, Nandi, gave her a resounding welcome. It was just fantastic to feel the connexion - clear across the globe - with friends who care.  Thanks, Tara!

time for a visit from Denmark

Its Nandi - our bull's birthday. We take this occasion to inform our readers that we now have our own little farm-house and are making arrangements for a veternarian crew from Copenhagen to visit SASS and help sterilise our new dog adoptees. Viola! Thanks you for following our progress through the years...

a new home for Nandi and Chitki and family...

More recently, SASS expanded its services to rescues of street cows, bulls, and calves. We have a great new friend called 'Nandi' who joined our family a month ago. He was found unconscious on the street in Sarnath after a beating from a local shop-keeper. He now lives on our farm and is wonderful to be around. Anna, a housemate, insists that Nandi loves ambient music. His tastes, otherwise, are mueslix and corn on the cob!
