Devlin arrived at the sanctuary with a sad story but a super sweet disposition.  Having lived on an overcrowded farm with hundreds of other animals, Devlin and his 3 sheep friends, Malice, Sparky and Masia were unaware of just how lucky they were going to get.  Found in a basement that was brimming with feces with no food or water in sight, Devlin was fortunate to be one of the few animals who survived the largest hoarding case to take place in Pennsylvania to date. 

"Air Nibbling" with satisfaction

Devlin has put the past behind him and now bravely runs up to newcomers and leans in to your legs waiting for you to scratch deep into his wool. He’ll show his satisfaction with some commonly seen “air nibbling.”

When Devlin is not seeking out attention, he is silently sending telepathic messages asking you to pull the wool from over your eyes and shop compassionately…you don’t need animals to be fashionable (see the buzzkill at what's wrong with wool)
