Oh, look at our special guest. Here she is.
Paula.
Paula.
Paula.
And Paula Marie if she's not here.
Oh, very nice.
Okay, so let me explain why we have a lamb here.
Sasha Farm Animal Sanctuary helps offer love,
companionship, assistance to farmed animals
for 30 years they've been doing this,
doing the hard work and also the rewarding and joyful
work too.
Tonight, you can help their mission.
They need money, an organization hosting a fundraiser.
So let's talk about it.
Shara Jones is the firm's executive director,
and we have Sean Blackman.
We're going to talk about this guitar,
this guitar is very special, it's going to be auctioned
off as part of the fundraiser.
But first, okay, let's introduce us to our lamb
and explain why she has this wheelchair.
Yeah, she has some fancy wheels.
This here is Poa and she came to us disabled.
She actually was on a breeding farm for her wool
and she could be sent off for
For food after that.
However, at Sasha Farm,
we actually rescue all of these animals because to us, all the
animals are basically like our dogs and cats.
Poa is literally like a dog.
They all act the same way.
They are so lovely.
They're incredible animals.
And because the person that was breeding here couldn't take care
of her, they asked if we
could help out.
And so because she has the drop fetlock, she can't stand very well.
Her front legs didn't fuse properly, so she needed a wheelchair.
But her backs are super, super strong.
She can get around and do a whole bunch of stuff,
but we have many, many animals at the
farm.
We have about 200 animals at this time, and many of them are like POA.
We have geriatric animals, special needs animals,
animals with medical care that they need.
The auction tonight will definitely help benefit us and the animals,
and also we are really
looking forward to getting our biggest expense paid,
which is our $300,000 land contract.
So we're moving forward to securing the farm for animals like Poa
and everybody else that
we rescue in the future.
So we need a home for them, and that's why we're putting
on the auction, and our wonderful
friend Sean's here to help.
Yes, Sean, let's talk about this guitar,
because this is going to hopefully bring in some money.
Yes.
Yes.
So, uh, the...
The great Brian May of the band Queen donated this hand signed
Custom-made, Brian May guitar to be auctioned off tonight.
And I can't believe I'm holding it.
It's really an incredible piece of work.
Would someone buy that to display or to play?
I would hope that someone would play it.
Instruments are made to be played.
And it plays so well.
It's a perfect machine.
And this could be yours.
And you're performing tonight, right, Sean?
I will be performing.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Just anything I could do to help support Sasha Farm.
The animal sanctuary is such a precious place.
So please, yeah, if you could.
And Char, it's going to be so expensive,
the equipment, do most animals require some
sort of adaptive equipment?
Oh, 100 percent, especially when they do get older,
because just like people and your
companion animals, they lose their teeth,
they lose muscle, they get arthritis.
So they're pretty much the same, and we have to care for them the same.
And some of them can live to be 15, 20 years old,
even though we don't see that, and that's
why they'll need that care longer in their life.
It is, I am always amazed how you
You see...
And I've got a lot of sanctuary videos on my feed,
but you see farm animals that are
as responsive as what we think of as our dogs and cats,
how they love the human interaction.
Do you sense that?
They wag their tail.
They know their names, down to the chickens.
And we know that the pigs are smart.
You know, they're super smart.
But man, a lot of these guys are just amazing.
Well, it's a beautiful thing you're doing.
So Sasha Farms.
