The KaiMana Sanctuary is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. Our unique sanctuary, located on the island of Kauai, is an evolution of the profound loving relationship between our founder Amy KruteK and her heart horse Kai. We provide a safe, loving sanctuary for older horses that have nowhere else to go. Every horse under our care is honored with the freedom of a well-deserved retirement. Rooted in love, what began on a pasture as a promise to one horse has grown into a lasting mission to care for many with compassion and dedication.
We support our horses on their healing path, offering integrative therapies that nurture their mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Our peaceful environment helps horses recover from trauma and embrace their golden years. Here, Amy and Kai experience the healing frequencies of the gong.

" No hoof, no horse" Healthy hooves serve as an absolute foundation for horses. All of our horses are barefoot and receive trims and any other necessary hoof care every 5 weeks.

Miss Desi was 30 yrs old when she arrived at our sanctuary in 2022. Her previous owner/ best friend was diagnosed with dementia. Family and friends stepped in to help make an extremely difficult choice to surrender Desi so that she would continue to experience the unconditional love that she had known for most of her life.

Monica was brought to us in 2019 at the age of 17. She was a rodeo horse that experienced one too many injuries and needed a soft place to land. We welcomed her with open arms and loving hearts,

Pohaku spent his lifetime as a noble companion and trail horse. His body carried many people on happy journeys. When his owner finally realized it was cruel to be riding him as he suffers from arthritis, we welcomed him to the sanctuary in order to receive his long-awaited gift of honor and retirement,

At KaiMana Sanctuary, we believe that every horse deserves to end their story surrounded by love, not hardship. Our senior sanctuary is a place where old age is met with compassion, warmth and dignity. Your generosity ensures that our senior herd experiences a safe and dignified final chapter.
