Meet Moe

Meet Moe
Moe is a 21 year old, thoroughbred gelding who came to us in December 2011. When he arrived he was several hundred pounds under-weight and in need of critical rehab for his feet and teeth.

His former family loved him but were unable to provide the intense care  he needed to keep him in good health.

Upon arrival we began a regimen of 4 to 5 hand feedings a day, twice daily grooming of his coat, and regular farrier work on his feet every six weeks.

Moe is fed four pounds of Endurance feed daily and is getting soaked Alfalfa & Timothy Cubes every day as well as DAC supplements. Because his teeth are bad he is unable to chew hay properly.

The vet recently gave the OK to have Moe's teeth worked on. He needed to reach a specific weight before we could do this. Once his teeth are fixed he will be receiving T&A hay. Of course we will continue the cubes as a treat because he loves them so much.

Prior to arriving at Majical Miniatures, Moe had been battling thrush for about a year. We are making progress with his feet, he continues to get daily treatment and it will be some time before the problem is completely corrected.

In the four months that Moe became a part of the Majical Miniatures family he has gained over 100 lbs and while he is a long way from our goal for him, we felt it was time for you all to meet him. When Moe first arrived he would only come to you for food, now he enjoys his grooming & will run to greet anyone that will pet him.

He now Shares our Joyland Yard with Jack, our mascot donkey. Jack has taken it upon himself to become Moe's caretaker companion, as he has so many other animals in the past, providing him some security and company. Moe in return has bonded with Jack  and panics if Jack is ever out of his sight. 

We would like to Thank all of you for your support for what we do here. That support helps us care for animals like Moe and so many others that need the good quality HANDS-ON care that we provide. To learn how you can sponsor Moe visit Majical Miniatures.

Please take a moment to check out our newest sponsor Supreme Pet Foods. We received an amazing donation from Supreme Pet Foods of approximately 15,000 lbs of small animal food & other items such as bedding & nesting supplies. 

We have decided to share our good fortune by donating a portion of the food to a few other small animal rescues in our area including Save our Seabirds. The donation, valued at $15,000 wholesale, will help us to keep feeding costs down this year for our small animals and birds.

Bell & the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Have you ever wondered how Majical Miniatures came to be? Ariyana Saint Jennings & Jan Doherty had been involved with animals and rescue for years. They met by chance, helping a newborn fawn. Jan took in Bell, a newborn fawn who lost her mother. Bell's jaw was torn and fractured. 

The vet wired her jaw together but the bones would not grow. She damaged her teeth buds, which made it impossible for her to be released back into the wild. Jan was not able to keep Bell at her location because she did not have an 8 ft fence to contain her. Jan met Ariyana who agreed to take her. 


They became friends & the rest, as they say, is history.  By the way, Bell is happily living out the rest of her life with her furred, feathered & shelled family at Majical Miniatures animal sanctuary.
