Every resident has a unique story of resilience. Get to know the animals who call Whisker Woods home.
Whisker Woods is home to horses, cows, sheep, kangaroos, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs and native wildlife. Many of our residents arrived orphaned, injured or abandoned. Here, they live out their lives in safety and comfort.
Our herd includes retired racehorses and rescued foals, all now living free on lush pastures with room to roam.
