You’ll want to see this amazing rescue! Alyssas Animal Sanctuary is a 501c3 nonprofit in Valdosta, Georgia, and is on a mission to provide a safe haven for abandoned, abused, and neglected animals of all kinds. The farm also offers the community fun and educational activities out on location.

Over her years of rescuing, Alyssa noticed that some of the rescue animals had destructive behaviors from being captive wild animals and not getting the enrichment that they needed. This affects both their physical and mental health so Alyssa set out to make her sanctuary different.

In a now-viral TikTok, Alyssa explains that there are five categories of enrichment:

1. Sensory Enrichment: anything that stimulates the animals’ senses.

2. Social Enrichment: anything that includes any sort of social interaction.

3. Cognitive Enrichment: anything new or challenging that will cause the animal to think.

4. Physical Enrichment: anything to keep their habitat fun and healthy, including exercising.

5. Food Enrichment: introducing new food items or new ways for animals to get their food.

Amazing! Check out @alyssasanimalsanctuary for more!
