Since 2013, the Spanish sanctuary León Vegano has welcomed and taken care of animals with painful histories, offering them a chance at a new life.
Two more lodgers have just arrived at the refuge: Iker and Cody.
Iker is a little goat kid aged only 7 days, headed for the abattoir because one of his legs was broken. After the breeder decided he was useless to them, the organisation saved him at the very last minute and has raised him on a baby's bottle.

At his side is Cody, a kitty born in the streets and suffering from a very serious respiratory problem. There is no doubt that Cody would have died without the dedicated help of the León Vegano volunteers.

As is very often the case with two suffering animals in sanctuaries, Iker and Cody became friends very quickly.Cody took Iker under his wing and helped him through the hardship. Affectionately licking his goat pal, the cat is giving Ikerback some confidence in life.

Luckily, according to the latest updates, the two friends are on the road to recovery. No thanks partly due to their adorable friendship!

Watch the video of this tender moment:
Amistad entre un gato y un cabritoIker ha hecho un buen amigo, Cody. Desde que le ha conocido procura no separarse de él. Se echa con él, y le da tantos besos que Iker acaba por gritar para que se lo quitemos de encima. Aquí podeis ver a Iker dejándose querer y a Cody, queriéndole con locura. Tal vez se de cuenta de su estado de salud. Ha llegado muy mal, con fiebre, deshidratado, con dolor y lo peor, apenas quiere comer. Estamos haciendo todo lo posible por sacarle adelante. Por favor mandarle mucha fuerza!Iker es un cabrito de 7 días, rescatado con una pierna rota después de que el ganadero decidiera que le iba a matar por no ser rentable. Cody es un gato que nació en la calle y sufre Herpes Virus Felino y la enfermedad de Shunt. Ambos han vuelto a nacer en Leon Vegano Animal Sanctuary.¿Nos ayudas a difundir el vídeo de su rescate?:http://on.fb.me/1fa3NXkAyúdanos a seguir salvando animales:► Hazte socio desde 6€ al mes: http://bit.ly/sociaLVAS► Compra un producto de nuestra tienda solidaria: http://bit.ly/1DqGMEq► Haz Teaming con nosotros y dona 1€ al mes: http://bit.ly/1lifs2x► Haz un donativo: Banco SantanderIBAN ES95 0049 4388 3028 9001 5697Paypal: [email protected]¿Quieres ayudarnos a conseguir un nuevo terreno para poder seguir rescatando animales?
