Welcome to

Goshala BJ Animal care

Goshala BJ Animal care rooted its humble beginnings serving the sick cows at a local goshala in South Bay, CA. When Covid had engrossed the world into lock downs, these innocent farm animals were constantly challenged with disease, lacking support, hunger and uncertainty. Goshala BJ Animal Care was incorporated in the peak of the pandemic to support these gentle beings to have a sustained supply of Food & Grains, Veterinary care and Housing needs.

Rescue & Rehabilitation

The Need for Sanctuaries for ‘Unproductive’ Cows

The number of sanctuaries available for ‘unproductive’ cows is strikingly low. Our mission centers on rescuing infertile and spent cows, as well as bull calves, who are often viewed as undesirable in the dairy industry and discarded at birth.

By focusing on these animals, we not only save lives but also challenge traditional agricultural practices. Our concentrated efforts serve as a refuge, highlighting the intrinsic value of every creature, irrespective of their reproductive capabilities. Here, these gentle beings can live their lives in peace and dignity, roaming freely across verdant pastures, soaking up the sun, and forming bonds without the pressures of production.

Visitors frequently leave with a refreshed perspective on the inherent worth of all animals. By observing the distinct personalities and characteristics of each cow, they develop a deeper appreciation for the importance of compassion and respect for all living beings.

Education and Awareness

Education is a fundamental aspect of our mission. We provide tours to raise awareness about the challenges these animals face and inspire others to adopt more humane and sustainable agricultural practices. We aim to cultivate empathy and connections that go beyond conventional industry norms.
Ultimately, our aspiration is to create a ripple effect of kindness that reaches far beyond our sanctuary, encouraging a broader societal shift towards more ethical treatment of animals. Together, we can pave the way for a future where every creature is cherished for their mere existence and where sanctuaries like ours become the standard rather than the exception.

Visitor Education

We aim to educate ourselves & the volunteers and engage the community through Education and Advocacy of these innocent beings.

Support

We cherish the animal inhabitants of the goshala more than anything else, and we prioritize their health and safety above all.

Be Kind

Education & Advocacy

Animals in sanctuaries provide a great deal of educational learning for the communities. Sanctuaries provide education by allowing the public to visit with animals in natural settings and gain insights and information about their history. We advocate for kindness towards animals and develop a cohabitant presence of these species on our planet.Visitors are able to hand feed the animals and spend quality time with them during their visits. 
We celebrate special events like  rescue of a farmed animal from a slaughter factory with great pride. These are special events to advocate for animal rights and serve as an education platform for communities to become aware of the needs of these innocent beings.

I had the opportunity to attend the volunteer event and it was a great learning experience. I really liked that after the tour, the organizer got the families and kids together and asked for a teach back. I think the volunteer event tour was a good balance of interacting with the rescued cows & other animals and the educational aspect of rescuing farm animals .

Cows are Kamadhenu and yet they suffer worst crimes and get killed after giving beyond what they can. Let us support this gentle animal and is made for giving. I only pay back extremely tiny portion of what I can. Save the Cow!
