Residents at MHA Horfield Lodge recently enjoyed a visit from some farm friends. 🐇🐐🐑 Kelly's Donkeys provides assisted therapies with animals. Residents got to meet two 2-month-old Pygmy Goats called Tom and Jerry, a 2-month-old lamb called Mickey and two rabbits. A few of the residents were lucky enough to feed Tom, Jerry, and Mickey their bottled milk. The visiting animals were all very well-behaved, and the residents enjoyed learning about and interacting with the animals.
