 We have great news! We finally got the ALL CLEAR with regards to paperwork. We have to pull blood on each baby, and one of the tests had a "False - Positive". The tests were coming back dirty, but the test was messed up. Since Coggins is such a deadly issue, we were under quarantine until the situation was cleared up. Thankfully, ALL BABIES ARE CLEARED TO TRAVEL !! Then the phone rang. On top of the 46? kids we have here right now, you guessed it, THERE ARE MORE ORPHANS TO COME IN TODAY! These babies are being pulled off their moms as you read this, and the catcher wants to know - WILL I HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY THEM???? or do they go where know one wants them to? As usual, it is an emergency for the 7+ babies I have been called about. If you want to save them, we need help now. We are going to need at least $1500 JUST TO SAVE and vet them. These babies have been coming in so badly beat up it makes you cry. We had to set Bumper free from his pain last week. He had a fractured skull, severe injuries to his back end and a horrible injury to his leg. He wanted to be here so we gave him a chance, but two days later it was clear he was done. The heartbreak is unbelievable. We have spent over $10,000 on this latest rescue, with vet bills, medical supplies, milk replacer and taking care of these horses. The coffers are running dry and we need to know if folks want us to save the 7 babies that are being offered to us. We need to buy more meds as we have gone through nearly all that we purchased a week ago. (One shot of Excede from a vet is over $100. A bottle is around $300 and we get multiple shots. This saves the rescue a fortune.) Doing most of our vetting ourselves saves thousands of dollars, although there are definitely issues that are way out of my realm. Your money is doing what it is supposed to. You are SAVING THESE PRECIOUS LIVES and they are heading out to begin their lives. Thank you, and PLEASE, LET'S SAVE the babies who are being taken away from their moms as you read this. Many of them will be injured and they are terrified and need our help. Y'all are amazing and I cannot believe the number of horses you have made it possible to save. While others complain about the issues, YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE! PLEASE HELP NOW IF YOU CAN! You can see they are in tough shape, but boy do they love their life sustaining milk.  If you want to help You can go to You Caring - to help us keep saving lives..

 ▪ Although it looks like the same horses, look at the fencing and you can tell it is not the same kids. * *Wow, This is one of the craziest rescues we have ever been on. Please remember, the Chilly Pepper "organization" consists of just myself and Matt assisting. One of the reasons why my Thank You notes are always late. :( We are really struggling on this rescue, as there has been a great deal of loss and we are literally sitting on so many horses. We do this because God puts it in front of us, and for the folks who can't do it themselves, and who are always asking us to save the horses. BUT WE SIMPLY CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT YOUR HELP. We will do the work if we have the funds. We do not have enough funds right now to keep buying this much feed and save the new kids that we were called about yesterday. There are more to be paid for, vetted and gotten to safety as I type this. The horses would have all been moved within the next couple of days if things had gone according to our plan. However, although I don't always understand God's plans, I do ALWAYS TRUST that there is a reason. (Boy would I like to know what it is lol). Because our plans to have them all out of here and be back home went right out the window due to a paperwork issue. Out of the 46 horses, there are 30+ orphaned babies who were still nursing and need milk. Luckily some of them will be transitioning over to pellets which are not quite as expensive. These kids are in rough shape, and full of parasites and just exhausted. They NEED GOOD GROCERIES to get them back to where they should be. We have been dealing with a lot of injuries, and sadly have seen more loss of life than anyone should ever see. The heartbreak just keeps on coming. We have 4 in the "hospital pen" who are in extremely rough shape at this point and who require expensive medication and constant care. Milk for ONE BABY is about $300 per month. We are currently going through that much EVERY SINGLE DAY - , and this is not including the additional milk pellets, grain, hay or supplements etc. There are MORE BABIES needing a commitment today, and not all of the babies here have been paid for, so the "floaters" in all reality still belong to the catcher. It is heartbreaking and overwhelming. Everyone here is exhausted and there is no choice but to just "git 'er done". How do you look in their eyes and not help? This is why we are their voice and ask you for help to save their lives. We never could have guessed we would be stuck here with so many horses to feed, and these babies need your help today. It is simply out of our control. We have not gotten "clean paperwork" so we are simply stuck. Hopefully the issue will be resolved tomorrow, but for now we have to feed everyone that has been saved. (We still have to have someone feeding and caring for the horses at home every single day we are here.) Out of the 46, 14 are heading to Texas, 3 mares & foals are headed to CA, 2 or 3 should be going to Wyoming and 2 are tentatively scheduled for Utah. Thankfully the other 5 mares and 2 of the yearlings are headed to southern Idaho. We have so many amazing folks willing to help place them, ONCE we have paid for all the initial costs. So again, we are not 'hoarding", but saving their lives and getting them to safety. The stallion and 15? orphans will be coming to Chilly Pepper until we find them a good home. Please keep these babies safe. Step one was getting them here. But now we have to actually feed and take care of them. Thank you for taking a quick minute and sending whatever you can. These kids have been through heck. They were run for 100 +/- miles, left in the trap with no feed or water for 24-48 hours, and then they were stripped away from their families. It is heartbreaking listening to them cry for their mama's. We need to AT LEAST be able to provide proper feed for them. So the babies are counting on you once again. Thank you for your help! Taking a nap after filling up their bellies.  If you want to help You can go to You Caring - to help us keep saving lives..

PLEASE ACT NOW!7/1/2018  ANOTHER DAY - ANOTHER URGENT 911. It sounds so dramatic, but when you are on the front lines and the only thing standing between these babies and a horrific death, or worse yet, a future as a "tripping horse", it is ALWAYS an immediate need and the choice is life or death. I hate to use the word DESPERATE, but this situation is just that. We had over 50 babies between the other rescue and Chilly Pepper, and we took on 35 of those babies. Unfortunately, we are still going through nearly $300 per day of milk for the ones we still have between the 2 rescues. We did get 21 placed in Idaho, so that helped tremendously. THERE ARE MORE BABIES WE NEED TO SAVE TODAY!! Not all of the babies already here have been paid for, and I am picking up at the Shipper's today and possibly from another catcher. We are in ORPHAN FOAL CRISIS and these babies NEED MONEY TO SAVE THEM, VET THEM AND FEED THEM or we simply will not be able to save them. Many of them have serious injuries, and we have already had some tragic losses. This is heartbreaking, but we will keep saving as many as we can, as long as we have the funding. So it is up to y'all, do we keep saving more? We are still in WA and they just keep coming.... So far we have spent $2,731 to get Coggins and health Certs on the 35, plus do some needed medical procedures. There are additional vet costs too. We spent approx $3000 to save the 35 and another mare and the stallion, We spent $700 (so far) on medical supplies we are using to treat these babies. We spent another $900 on milk which will only last a few days as we are feeding close to $300 worth of milk each day between the remaining 30+ babies here. (That includes the babies that have not been paid for and are "floating"). (One bag of Foal Lac Powder lasts approx. 2 weeks for 1 baby). So over $7300 just in those couple items. This does not include fuel, hay, supplements etc. the list goes on, BUT I WANTED Y'ALL TO SEE WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES! WE SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO SAVE THE REST OF THESE BABIES THAT ARE BEING SORTED TODAY! IF ya'll want their lives saved, it is up to you. Again, Matt and I will continue the 24/7 care and keep on keepin' on, but it is going to take some serious funds. Y'all DID IT FOR THE LAST 35, so let's DO IT AGAIN!! PLEASE HELP RIGHT NOW!
