Blog

Welcome to the Farmica Blog – a place where we tell stories that deserve to be heard.
Here, we share the everyday life of our shelter, the stories of rescued animals, adoptions that made us cry and laugh, as well as helpful tips for all animal lovers.
Each post is a small window into the world of Farmica – filled with challenges, love, hope, and the fight for those who cannot speak for themselves.
