Tipsy
Birth date: 22nd July 2024 Arrival date: 9th August 2024
​​
Tipsy arrived at Little Oak Sanctuary as a tiny lamb, just weeks old, facing a world of challenges. Born with partial paralysis in her back legs, she struggled to stand, let alone walk. Her early days were marked by frustration and fatigue — but also an incredible spirit that would come to define her.
​
From the moment she arrived, it was clear that Tipsy had a spark. What she lacked in mobility, she made up for in determination. With gentle care, dedicated support, and the companionship of fellow lambs, she began to adapt to her world.
​
As she grew, Tipsy was fitted with a custom wheelchair — a turning point in her journey. With her new wheels beneath her and a safe space to explore, she took off with surprising speed. Tail wagging, ears flapping, she radiated joy. For the first time, Tipsy could move with freedom and confidence.
​
Tipsy's story is a powerful reminder of what sanctuary is all about — not just safety, but opportunity. Not just survival, but the chance to live fully, with dignity and joy.

Thanks to supporters like you, Tipsy is now thriving. She continues to grow, explore, and inspire everyone who meets her.
