Breed- Pony

Birth Year- approximately 1991
Arrival Date: 05/16/09

Katie has spent the majority of her life as a contest pony in 4-H programs. Unfortunately being a pony in 4-H, her handlers quickly out grew her. Her career was extended through a lease family but, once again, the riders out grew her. Katie became the forgotten pony. She was returned to her original family in such poor condition, euthanasia seemed likely. Upon the discovery that her teeth were in such bad condition, a dental technician stepped in and initiated her rehabilitation. It became apparent; Katie needed more comprehensive care so she was brought to the Circle P Sanctuary. Here Katie is meal fed multiple times through out the day/night, including unlimited pasture and hay. Unfortunately, Katie has lost all of her molars and cannot eat hay or grass. Her meals have been increased to as much as we can get her to eat throughout a 24 hour period. She will require around the clock care for the rest of her life. Whereas, if someone were interested in taking on the responsibility of her special needs, we would entertain the idea of adoption, however, we anticipate Katie will remain at the Sanctuary for the remainder of her life.
