I don't think she was treated cruelly before CC bought her, even though quite neglectfully when it comes to her feeding. But of course I can't know for sure.
@@peony4954 That's what tells me she's had loving homes for big chunks of her life and she's not been _actively_ abused in her last one - sins of omission, rather than comission, as it were.
Thank you for rescuing an older horse - so many of them are abandoned past their prime years. She has the kindest eyes, she is so grateful to you , it shows
@@topazzsky you are right about the breeding also people probably shouldn’t breed horses regardless. There’s already enough horses in the world that need loving homes whether there rehomes, auction, privates sales, or rescue. Especially mustangs. Sound or unsound. They all need forever homes. Unfortunately it’s not possible to adopt/ buy/ save every horse. The only thing you can do is don’t breed horses so your not contributing to the problem or if you do breed vow to keep the Foal or twin foals for the rest of its life instead of rehoming it or sending it to an auction when it’s older.
I held my breath when the vet came to check out your new horse. I am so relieved she is not pregnant and that full attention can be given to her recovery. You are truly an earth angel for rescuing her. Thank you for all you do.
I love this suggestion, but CC said she was able to research the mare's past online. Perhaps she'll decide to keep her old name, whatever that was? Either way, I'm looking forward to the name reveal for this sweet, lovely old girl.
Lots of herd owners don't care if multiple breedings wear mares out. Then they dump the mares at auctions and never think about them again. It is too bad those kind of owners are even considered human because they sure don't act in a human manner. They lack humanity.
People who only care about another horse to sell would breed an older mare like this. smh. It makes me very happy that she can retire from that life and live her best life in Montana with CC. It's the best thing that could have happened to this old girl! Blessed Be!
Never feel bad about sharing your decisions, CC. 🙂 They are yours to make and no one has a right to question them. With your level of integrity, I am absolutely positive you would never harm your horses.
You will do your considerable best for and with her, as you've done with all of them, and I definitely include Skeletor. You have the love, the knowledge, and the courage to do the right thing. People who think otherwise? A hearty "Bleep you" to them and their ignorance, cruelty, and probable slight case of mental illness. I've no patience for 'em.
She's not pregnant? Good. That should make her recovery much easier. She's such a sweetheart! I hope her recovery continues to go well. Thank you, CC, for caring about her. You're shoring up my faith in humanity.
I am so disgusted by people who profit from animals and then toss them aside, it seems like a never-ending cycle. So glad you took her home with you. Hi Nigel!!
I've been holding my breath, waiting for an update. I'm so happy to breathe a sigh of relief that she isn't pregnant. She is an amazing, sweet horse who deserves to be doted on and pampered.
I'm pretty sure this mare and her owner from about 2001 to 2009 or 2010 competed in a lot of AQHA events and did pretty well. Definitely desirable bloodlines. Then she was retired from competition, and a couple of years later, she was sold to be a broodmare, although I have heard of much older horses continuing to compete in reining and other events.
I don’t think I’d ever be brave enough to even put myself out there on social media so I can’t say you should or shouldn’t feel any sort of way, but I will say this; Thank you for sharing the vulnerable horses with us. I think many of us understand they might not make it. I respect and appreciate you and your work all the more for taking them in. No one can “save them all” no matter what or who it is you’re trying to save, but one at a time you’re mending hearts and horses and doing more good than you’ll ever know.
This mare truly needed “Second Chance CC” and she got her. The sweet girl won the horse lottery, and I could not be happier for her. Happy there’s no foal on the way. Now she can just be a horse. Thank you CC. 💜
Whew! I'm so glad this sweet old mare is not in foal! Now that she's with CC, she has a real shot at making a full recovery. Thank you, CC, for bringing this beautiful mare home with you. She deserves the opportunity to actually retire in a home filled with care and love! I can't wait for more updates! ❤
Fingers crossed for her. She would make a lovely older buddy for Frisco Bill if she recovers. She reminds me of Ziggy. A good girl who has always done her best and just needed more care. Lovely she came your way... kindness and care.
Don't you ever let yourself be influenced by the fact that you have a youtube channel CC! You do what you think is best, don't you let any comments dishearten you, it would be a real shame! You are doing an outstanding job, it is a labour of love and you can happily ignore any nasty comments . They don't know what they're talking about..
@RataPerry I was referring to her comment that she was unsure about bringing this horse home bc of her TH-cam Channel . She said that before she wouldn't have hesitated and would have just brought her home to "see how she does". That triggered my comment.
Honestly she's such a sweet horse! She barely knows you yet, in a new place, and still was happy to just stand there while the vets worked no issues. I think she can tell she's home and loved now ♥
It would totally break my heart if she was in foal. She looks like a mare who has constantly been bred. I draw a hard line at not breading a mare older than 14. She really does seem like a sweetheart
Your video post magically coincided with the discovery of an emaciated neglected horse in my community, and while we wait for the state to decide what to do, I am able to advocate for re-feeding guidelines to prevent folks from hefting large amounts of food into this horse’s pen. Good luck with your mare❤️ and thanks for your great advice!
She's such a sweetheart! You can see her light up when she hears your voice. I hope you'll get her together with Ziggy soon, I'm looking forward to their friendship. Glad her diagnosis was so positive. And Nigel looks 10 years younger than he did a year ago, winter agrees with him.
It's touching the way she follows you around and is attached to you. Like she knows you're her last hope. I'll be watching her progress, and really hoping for the day when she feels good enough to have her first run and buck. ❤️
CC has been lovingly calling her Mama.....please keep that name CC as it appears that she was only used as a foal incubator for most of her life, so Mama is a proud name for her!
Over the years I had the opportunity to buy horses on their way to the glue factory, as we used to say. The local dealer for these horses had a soft spot and would call me and my friend to let us know when there was a horse or pony that shouldn’t be sent to slaughter, quite often young unsuccessful race horses, unbroken ponies etc. He was reviled by everyone that had horses for dealing in the meat market but this dealer made sure the horses were well treated, fed, transported properly and the ones that shouldn’t be there were sold to people like me. So we would go to his lot, and take a look and bring them home, paying for them by the pound. It was heartbreaking to see the very ancient crippled ponies and ones with obvious injuries but we didn’t have a lot of money either and could only take ones we thought we could train and sell. All but one of these horses we bought went on to good new homes after retraining and refeeding. Annie, a 4 year old, extremely emaciated racehorse, even worse than your new one, would only be with us for a year. She was super sweet, very easy to train and bloomed with feeding. She became shiny and filled out, a beautiful chestnut with lots of chrome. Then one day, a year later, she wasn’t okay. What can happen to starved horses is their immune system can’t take much and she ended up with a fungal infection in her sinuses, very unusual, and we were unable to beat it. But I know we gave her a much better ending where she was in a big field, cared for and appreciated. It is a huge risk taking on horses in this condition but so worth it. Kudos CC.
Thank you for taking on the OTTB. They are often treated as a commodity and not as a living being with feelings. And I know from experience how time consuming, emotional, and expensive it can be. But also how wonderful it can be to watch them heal and have a better life and love, which they give back many times over.
The way she follows along just because is so sweet. It's like whereve she's been before, they squeezed every use they had for her out of her and threw her away after her baby was ready. Regardless of what reasons anyone could have, there's no justification. She did not deserve that. She did so deserve to be rescued though and live a good life, however much time she has. Best wishes for her recovery.
So happy she's not pregnant so her body can focus on recovery. I can already tell she's improved since the day you brought her home. So excited to see her looking and feeling good!!!
Little did this mare know she would be under the care of such a powerful healer like CC. Her journey to health has begun. So lucky. Love that you shared her story with us, CC.
CC, you are exactly what this sweet mare needed. I always wonder what they're thinking when they come home with you. Are they wondering just how in the world their lucky stars aligned? That now they feel safe and loved and no longer hungry? I'm just going to keep thinking that , yes, this is precisely what they're thinking. We all love your sweet new mare, CC! 🐎💜🐎
I've just scared my cat by going woo hoo. On the last video I said she was adorable well I'm now totally in love with her. I just wanna hug her. Here's to many more years of being loved and cared for. She deserves it. Thank you cc for being you. Your big heart and compassion is astounding. Sending big hugs x
So relieved to see this update, vet visit is encouraging and so glad that there are not any obvious signs of disease and Mama is gaining strength. She is so sweet, really pulling for her continued recovery 💯
I have NOTHING to do with horses, a few months ago i didnt even like them that much. Now look at me, checking every day if CC uploaded a new video, being very addicted to the content. Always love the shananigangs these horses are up to. Im in love with all of them and of course CCs video style.
I hope she's not pregnant. We'll find out if the vet finds other health concerns that need addressing. EDIT: I'm so relieved she's not pregnant. Yes, a little one would wlhave been a joy, but she deserves total attention on _her_ health. We all know she's with the right human who will do her best to make sure she has a good life. Thanks CC!
Once healthy, she should be a dream to care for. She seems so kind and gentle. I keep saying, "she". I want to call her by a name. She deserves a really special name.
It is a joy to watch the three amigos in the background as you unloaded the mare off the trailer. I cannot get over how sweet and gentle she seems, and I totally see why you picked her up from auction. Wishing you and this new mare the absolute best.
this is the kind of horse that won't quit on you. I got a 29 year old mare that had just weaned her last colt for my 8 year old grandson to learn to ride on. she belonged to the same woman from her birth. when I borrowed her she looked like she was 10 years old. that's difference that quality care makes and that comes from love. she passed at 32
I'm soooo grateful for Mama horse that she isn't packing a final bun in her oven! I hope this means that she can retire in peace and just be a sweet old lady for the rest of her days, enjoying her life.❤❤❤
I can't imagine throwing away this mare after she gave them a foal at age 26! Plus she's so agreeable to work with. There's a reason the mustang didn't work out
Thank you for rescuing Little Mama. She deserves some loving care after all she's been through. You have a huge heart. I'll be following along with all you do. Love from Moab.
I "liked" another comment asking who else has been obsessively checking for updates on "mama" girl: yes, that's me too! I am so glad to see her in CC's care, and I like her so much, she tags along after her new human and is grateful and calm and hungry. Looking forward to seeing all about this pretty lady who will now get the pampering of a lifetime :-)
I am a little bummed she isn't pregnant because I would love to see CC help raise a little one. But, I'm also glad she isn't pregnant because CC will have an easier time getting this old gal into really good shape. I'm looking forward to watching the progression and seeing her improvements.
I'm so glad she isn't in foal. These old mares often die of uterine artery rupture after foaling. She loves you already - food, grooming, and a warm blanket. An old horse's dream.
She has obviously made a connection with you already, CC- following you around and greeting you with pricked ears and happy eyes. Paloma would fit well!
I'm very relieved she isn't bred-back and expecting. She's got such a soft Mothering energy to her though! I bet she threw some wonderful babies that learned good manners from Momma. Now, she can retire, and this is HER time to just Be.
I'm so happy to learn that this new mare is doing well. I know it's still early days, but her prognosis seems very good so far. I'm also glad to know how the dentistry went. I guess I'm in that large club with BlackKittyKat - I've been checking constantly, too. Another viewer (I'm sorry, I don't remember who it was... thanks) mentioned that she had "become a member" . I had never done this before - it's _easy!_ It takes $4 per month via a credit card. I am not focused on membership "benefits". Though I might love them, I just want to do what I can to support what CC does. I want her to get a glorious, perfect new ranch!
Usually, when CC starts the video with a question, the answer is no 😃 I just hope all is going well so far. The mare should be on a normal feeding schedule now, and I hope CC is getting some sleep. 💞
What a sweetheart. She SO deserves just to live her life now, not be constantly bred. I find it sad that people just keep breeding and breeding from older horses, just not ok. Glad she'll have a nicer life now!
There's something about this sweet girl...I fell in love with her instantly. I know you name your horses some goofy names but I hope that she get's a sweet one. I have full confidence in you and your vet on her recovery being succssful. She tore at my heart strings when you first posted her. I'm so glad that you got her. She's a doll! ♥♥♥
Can tell she is such a sweet horse and seems so happy she is with you. It would have been nice for a baby to appear but she probably has had enough of being a mom. what a great thing to be able to do. Nigel seems in his element too.
Thank you for rescuing this gorgeous lady! She looks happier and healthier after just 24 hours with you. At last she’s in great and loving hands with you. ❤️
What great news there are no obvious serious issues with her. Her body has been used for enough babies, I'm rather glad she's not in foal. She can just receive the individual care and love she's been lacking, she deserves it. Thank you CC. I'm glad you decided to share her journey. Its heartwarming. If only all our remote love and support could actually make her feel better she'd be 100% already ❤
Hit the like bottom if you too have been obsessively checking CC’s channel all weekend for a new video about this pretty mare 😂❤
YEP!!!!! from Canada!!! 😁😁😁
@ hahahaha I’m from Canada too 😜
Hahaha! Yep 👍 cannot wait to see how she is doing❤
Also in BC Canada.
Yet another Canadian here. I’m in Vancouver and hello all😀
Anyone else noticed that in spite of her recent trauma and delicate condition she never flinches or moves away from CC’s loving touch …..🥰
I don't think she was treated cruelly before CC bought her, even though quite neglectfully when it comes to her feeding. But of course I can't know for sure.
She actually comes to CC - she is not afraid - just poorly fed.
J'espère qu'elle n'a pas trop froid vu sa faiblesse. Elle est belle. ❤

Regardless of her condition, a mare her age shouldn't be having a foal, so I'm glad.
Her previous owners dumped her because of the melanoma I'll bet. People shouldn't breed if they can't take care of their horses to the end. ugh
@@topazzsky They probably dumped her because she was too old to breed and that's all she's good for to them.
Me too! ❤
She seems very outgoing and affectionate, I don't believe she was treated cruelly by her last owner.@@genthespacewitch

Yup🙏
It's like the kitty distribution system. You never know when it's going to strike!

She has worked hard raising kids…it’s her turn to be pampered and loved. Thank you CC for introducing us to this sweet girl❤
My God,-- she follows you like a puppy. . . Beyond heartwarming.
I would suggest the name Paloma for her! A white dove in a nest makes for the perfect image of a sweet, gentle, motherly creature like her...
I like it! I thought Oma (grandmother) but Paloma is better.
Paloma fits her in every way.
I love this suggestion, but CC said she was able to research the mare's past online. Perhaps she'll decide to keep her old name, whatever that was? Either way, I'm looking forward to the name reveal for this sweet, lovely old girl.
Paloma is really pretty ❤❤❤
I like Paloma too and will anxiously wait with everyone else😊
I love how she follows you around and waits for you when you bring her meal❤She seems like a good old girl
Me Too❣️❣️❣️
I was waiting fir her to say something. 😊
This old lady just won the friggin' lottery ❤
I'm happy she isn't carrying another foal. Who would breed such an old mare anyway?! She deserves a good retirement.

As cute as a baby would be I am so relieved she can just focus on nutrition and recovery for herself now 🥺❤️ You truly are who she needed!
She's not pregnant? Good. That should make her recovery much easier. She's such a sweetheart! I hope her recovery continues to go well. Thank you, CC, for caring about her. You're shoring up my faith in humanity.
It must be such a relief for her to just have a clean place to live, food that is hers alone, and peace and quiet. And she sure loves you!
She is so friendly and kind. Hard to believe she was allowed to get so run down. But, she has just won the lottery so YIPPEE! 🥳
I am so disgusted by people who profit from animals and then toss them aside, it seems like a never-ending cycle. So glad you took her home with you. Hi Nigel!!
You are not the only one. I have had major arguments with people who are cruel to animals.
Horses give so much, and then when older they deserve and have earned a nice retirement in my opinion.
I'm so happy for her. No more babies, just love and kindness from now on. I'm certain she will thrive with you.
I've been holding my breath, waiting for an update. I'm so happy to breathe a sigh of relief that she isn't pregnant. She is an amazing, sweet horse who deserves to be doted on and pampered.
She has such a pretty face. They probably bred her like crazy because she made beautiful foals. So happy she gets to retire from that with you!

Little did this mare know she would be under the care of such a powerful healer like CC. Her journey to health has begun. So lucky. Love that you shared her story with us, CC.
CC, you are exactly what this sweet mare needed. I always wonder what they're thinking when they come home with you. Are they wondering just how in the world their lucky stars aligned? That now they feel safe and loved and no longer hungry? I'm just going to keep thinking that , yes, this is precisely what they're thinking. We all love your sweet new mare, CC! 🐎💜🐎
One minute in, and my eyes are blurry. Poor darling horse.
I've just scared my cat by going woo hoo. On the last video I said she was adorable well I'm now totally in love with her. I just wanna hug her. Here's to many more years of being loved and cared for. She deserves it. Thank you cc for being you. Your big heart and compassion is astounding. Sending big hugs x
Ditto.❤
So relieved to see this update, vet visit is encouraging and so glad that there are not any obvious signs of disease and Mama is gaining strength. She is so sweet, really pulling for her continued recovery 💯
I have NOTHING to do with horses, a few months ago i didnt even like them that much.
Now look at me, checking every day if CC uploaded a new video, being very addicted to the content. Always love the shananigangs these horses are up to. Im in love with all of them and of course CCs video style.
I am glad the girl is getting better and Ziggy and Whip are okay
While foals are wonderful. I hope she isn’t pregnant. She has so much to overcome already.
I hope she's not pregnant. We'll find out if the vet finds other health concerns that need addressing.
EDIT: I'm so relieved she's not pregnant. Yes, a little one would wlhave been a joy, but she deserves total attention on _her_ health. We all know she's with the right human who will do her best to make sure she has a good life. Thanks CC!
So glad she isn’t preggers. At 26 and underweight this is good news for this sweetie and your care of her. Thank you for rescuing her.
hit the LIKE button folks..
I wanted this video to go on and on. I’m in love with this horse already and see her as a lovely companion for Ziggy.
Love this gentle, sweet mare❤❤❤ Her life breeding babies are over and she can just recover and be pampered by you CC, bless you always 💕💓🎈🤩❤️🩹
Once healthy, she should be a dream to care for. She seems so kind and gentle. I keep saying, "she". I want to call her by a name. She deserves a really special name.
How about Mary? Maria? Marie? Merry Christmas as a name?
You can’t buy that feeling you get when helping another living creature…fellow man or animal…you can feel your heart swell with love ❤️ ……..priceless
It is a joy to watch the three amigos in the background as you unloaded the mare off the trailer. I cannot get over how sweet and gentle she seems, and I totally see why you picked her up from auction. Wishing you and this new mare the absolute best.
this is the kind of horse that won't quit on you. I got a 29 year old mare that had just weaned her last colt for my 8 year old grandson to learn to ride on. she belonged to the same woman from her birth. when I borrowed her she looked like she was 10 years old. that's difference that quality care makes and that comes from love. she passed at 32
I'm soooo grateful for Mama horse that she isn't packing a final bun in her oven! I hope this means that she can retire in peace and just be a sweet old lady for the rest of her days, enjoying her life.❤❤❤
She's a beautiful gentle kind old soul. I'm so glad she's ended up in your care.
What an absolute sweetheart of a mare. I actually think "mama" is the perfect name for that beautiful lady. I'm so hoping her recovery goes well.❤
I'm kinda hoping for her to be named Mary Christmas, Maria, Marie. What do you think?
Perfect! I had a basset hound named Christmas "Chrissy." I adopted her at 9 months, she lived to be 13.
I just hope that amazing mare recovers fully.
Hit the like button it helps her channel and the horses , CC is amazing with these horses
"Her manure looks fantastic"!!!! Love you CC.. hahaha
She is a kind and gentle soul and we appreciate you bringing her home. ❤
I can't imagine throwing away this mare after she gave them a foal at age 26! Plus she's so agreeable to work with. There's a reason the mustang didn't work out
This sweet lady of a horse is right where she needs to be. So glad you shared her with us.
Thank you for rescuing Little Mama.
She deserves some loving care after all she's been through.
You have a huge heart. I'll be following along with all you do.
Love from Moab.
I "liked" another comment asking who else has been obsessively checking for updates on "mama" girl: yes, that's me too! I am so glad to see her in CC's care, and I like her so much, she tags along after her new human and is grateful and calm and hungry. Looking forward to seeing all about this pretty lady who will now get the pampering of a lifetime :-)
I am a little bummed she isn't pregnant because I would love to see CC help raise a little one. But, I'm also glad she isn't pregnant because CC will have an easier time getting this old gal into really good shape. I'm looking forward to watching the progression and seeing her improvements.
I'm so glad she isn't in foal. These old mares often die of uterine artery rupture after foaling. She loves you already - food, grooming, and a warm blanket. An old horse's dream.
Her desire to follow you indicates her level of energy and willingness to go with your program. She knows she in professional care now.
She has obviously made a connection with you already, CC- following you around and greeting you with pricked ears and happy eyes. Paloma would fit well!
Super excited for news about lovely mare! SO GLAD and relieved she is still with you. 🙏🙏🙏🕊️❤️
Oh boy! I’ve been looking forward to a video about this mare! 🎉❤
I'm very relieved she isn't bred-back and expecting. She's got such a soft Mothering energy to her though! I bet she threw some wonderful babies that learned good manners from Momma. Now, she can retire, and this is HER time to just Be.
I'm so happy to learn that this new mare is doing well. I know it's still early days, but her prognosis seems very good so far. I'm also glad to know how the dentistry went. I guess I'm in that large club with BlackKittyKat - I've been checking constantly, too.
Another viewer (I'm sorry, I don't remember who it was... thanks) mentioned that she had "become a member" . I had never done this before - it's _easy!_ It takes $4 per month via a credit card. I am not focused on membership "benefits". Though I might love them, I just want to do what I can to support what CC does. I want her to get a glorious, perfect new ranch!
Usually, when CC starts the video with a question, the answer is no 😃 I just hope all is going well so far. The mare should be on a normal feeding schedule now, and I hope CC is getting some sleep. 💞
Almost "normal" , 4X a day
@@TheCleverCowgirl Hugs to you, and strength to your back & legs!
Hope the Gator has arrived.
Thank you for being so kind and helping her to recover❣ And, thank you for sharing her with all of us!💙💙💙
Thank you for listening to your heart CC! ❤️ She’s a beautiful girl!
What a sweetheart. She SO deserves just to live her life now, not be constantly bred. I find it sad that people just keep breeding and breeding from older horses, just not ok. Glad she'll have a nicer life now!
Such good news! 😊. Can't wait to see her bloom under your care.❤
There's something about this sweet girl...I fell in love with her instantly. I know you name your horses some goofy names but I hope that she get's a sweet one. I have full confidence in you and your vet on her recovery being succssful. She tore at my heart strings when you first posted her. I'm so glad that you got her. She's a doll! ♥♥♥
Can tell she is such a sweet horse and seems so happy she is with you. It would have been nice for a baby to appear but she probably has had enough of being a mom. what a great thing to be able to do. Nigel seems in his element too.
Nigel is looking so good! ❣❣❣
Thank you for rescuing this gorgeous lady! She looks happier and healthier after just 24 hours with you. At last she’s in great and loving hands with you. ❤️
What great news there are no obvious serious issues with her.
Her body has been used for enough babies, I'm rather glad she's not in foal. She can just receive the individual care and love she's been lacking, she deserves it.
Thank you CC. I'm glad you decided to share her journey. Its heartwarming.
If only all our remote love and support could actually make her feel better she'd be 100% already ❤
