OCTOBER 2021

Jenny Pig: Abandoned in a Pet Crate, Now Part of a Family

Jenny pressed her snout against the walls of the crate, choking through the blazing heat for a breath of fresh air. Cars whirred past. Few acknowledged the abandoned pet carrier left at the roadside like old, abandoned furniture.

Then, someone stopped. The driver, a cat rescuer, was always on the lookout for strays in need—and for sturdy cat carriers. She definitely didn't expect the small box already had her next rescue inside—and that Jenny would turn out to be a piglet.

Bitsy Gives a Tour of the Magical Pig Woods

In 2018, we added 96 acres to our New York shelter. With that expansion came the “Pig Woods.” With acres of earth to snuffle, branches to comb through as they explore, and tree cover to shade them from the sun, the Pig Woods have become our pig paradise. Join us for a tour of the woods, led by Bitsy. Here, she and her friends always have something new to uncover.

But for the Holcombs—along with the thousands of other Farm Animal Adoption Network members—economic worth doesn’t determine value. The Holcombs recently opened their home and hearts to Lily, Opal, and Jyn cows and the family couldn't be happier. (Photo: Tiffany H.)

Legislation was introduced in the U.S. Congress that would have devastating consequences for farmed animals. The “EATS Act” is designed to wipe out state laws that prevent animal cruelty, including legislation the prohibits inhumane confinement of hens in battery cages, pigs in gestation crates, and calves in veal crates.
