One month ago, a heartwarming video featuring a blind cow, rescued from a life on the farm, captured the internet’s attention.
Having spent several years under the care of a compassionate farmer, Helen, the 19-year-old blind cow, formed a unique bond with her owner. Instead of facing the fate of a slaughterhouse, she was relocated to a dedicated shelter designed for animals with special needs, such as herself.
Despite being blind from birth, Helen reciprocated the affection showered upon her by her owner. The farmer, understanding the challenges posed by her blindness, dedicated significant time to assisting Helen with various tasks, fostering a remarkable connection between them.
After spending numerous years together, a strong friendship blossomed between them, leading the farmer to make a steadfast decision never to send Helen the cow to the slaughterhouse. When the time came to part ways, he chose to donate Helen to Uncle Neil’s Home, a small shelter dedicated to caring for animals like her.
Having spent 19 years in a stable, Helen had to adapt to the new surroundings at the shelter. However, she quickly formed bonds with caring individuals who went out of their way to make her feel at home. In her own unique way, she reciprocated love to the shelter’s caretakers, brightening their days. The caregivers soon discovered Helen’s affinity for music, with her favorite song being “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” performed by the late Hawaiian musician Israel “Bruddah Iz” Kamakawiwo’ola. Watch this touching video capturing the journey of a rescued cow finding happiness in the shelter of compassionate individuals.
