Hi everyone, Jigsaw here with my final newsletter for 2022! A year of rescues and big news! It's also when we send out all our BIG wishes for next year - and I'm aiming high for all my bear buddies still caged in Vietnam!
Our biggest news is that our new sanctuary at Bach Ma is finally underway and starting to take shape. It is a HUGE undertaking and we are very excited!
Our rescued cubs would all have had a bleak future ahead of them, wrenched from their mothers by poachers - just months after being born! Instead, with us, they have friends for life and a safe place to grow up.
JOYS OF CHRISTMAS IN THE CUB ENCLOSURE
Sadly some bears only get a brief glimpse of a better world… "Saving the life of an animal won't change the world, but it will change the world for that one animal. I'm so glad we got to change your world beautiful Paddington, even just for a moment”.
A BEAUTIFUL BEAR WHO LEFT US TOO SOON
Some bears like Bailey struggle to fit in. But finally the Happy Ending she deserves appeared, thanks to the dedication of our staff who never gave up on her ... and of course the charms of her suitor, Friday !
DISCOVER TRUE LOVE WITH BAILEY !
By spending so much time with us, our carers observe all sorts of antics and behaviours. Occasionally we can still surprise our human friends, heh heh
WAIT FOR IT - HILARIOUS !! FIRST TIME SHENANIGANS !
In Spring I shared how Sal received a very special gift - A traditional Vietnamese hat (“NÓN”), delightfully decorated with moon bears! Well! People are clearly inspired by ME because she has another beauty.
I know you’re all busy with Christmas so I'll finish up. But before I go... You are SO close to completing my 2022 puzzle -raising $10,600 for us bears. There are only 11 pieces to go! Please help me finish it by Dec 31. Then we can all enjoy a very Happy New Year’s Eve celebrations! Well, I know I will !
COME AND JOIN ME IN MY POOL !!
Thanks for reading, everyone ! Looking forward to sharing more news from my bear world soon. Love, your bear Jigsaw! And remember this is why you help me .....
