Foal and Buttons

A heart-warming story shared by Agnes Cheong:

Just hours after his birth, Breeze was found stumbling around the farm.  The newborn foal had been abandoned by his mother.  So the farmer took him to the Devon-base ‘Mare and Foal Sanctuary’ in England, where they cared for him.  What happened next is heart-warming.

One of the staff put into the stall a 4′ tall teddy bear called Buttons.  The foal was instantly attracted to him,

and had obviously found a comforting replacement for his mother.  Now the two are inseparable.

 

It’s now expected that Breeze will be fine, thanks to the farmers actions, and to those who cared enough to take in this little cutie.  And, of course, they give very special thanks to Buttons.

You may not be my real Mum

And I feel safe with you
