Meet Opal, a lovely lamb who rescuers initially thought was a frozen rock. Opal was barely surviving, but over time and with a little love, she began to thrive.
Opal now has a charming method of thanking everyone who helped save her.
Kelly Dinham, the coordinator for Edgar’s Mission, stated that Opal was very ill and quite frail when she arrived. And, like other newborns, she felt protected and calmed by the warm embrace. She let out a small sigh to release the tension in her body, allowing you to feel her melt into your arms.
Their growth had been hindered, they discovered after a thorough vet examination. She was an adult sheep who had never experienced love from humans, not a baby. She would need some time to learn to trust those who were taking care of her. Dinham reported that tiny Opal did not flock to our feet like all the other small lambs did. Once her anxiety overpowered her, she would pitifully make her best attempt to go. She frequently sways in her still frail state. Our hearts were so close to breaking over this.
Since her rescuers continued to attempt to save her, Opal has come to understand how much everyone loves her. After learning to trust her caregivers, Opal now gives them the most adorable licks and cuddles.
The founder of the rescue, Pam Ahern, “would hug little Opal to her bosom,” according to Dinham. She would boast about how brave she was, how she was remarkable, and how she had won our hearts. Little Opal is enthralled by the soothing tones and contently closes her eyes as her gorgeous tongue searches for the speaker.
