Missy was just a means of production

You can transform the lives of pigs like Missy.

Missy pig is sweet and sassy. She loves belly rubs. And on most days, she greets us at the fence with happy grunts to let us know she's ready for attention.

Before coming to Farm Sanctuary, however, Missy had been exploited to breed piglets to be raised for slaughter. They didn't see Missy's individuality - they only viewed her as a means of production.

More than 120 million pigs are slaughtered for meat in the United States each year. Most of their mothers were treated like production units on factory farms, crammed in gestation crates barely larger than their bodies. Though Missy didn't come from this setting, her life would have ended like all the others: slaughtered for meat when no longer profitable as a breeding sow.

Thankfully, with the help of kindhearted animal advocates like you, Missy got a second chance. Will you join Farm Sanctuary with a generous gift today to help more pigs like Missy find Sanctuary?

In our current food system, pigs like Missy are treated as commodities. But with your support, Farm Sanctuary is working to transform that system - employing rescue, education, and advocacy to show the world that farm animals are thinking, feeling beings.

Pigs are intelligent, sentient beings. When given the chance to live, they thrive on socializing and constant stimulation to feed their natural curiosity. Research shows that they also have strong long-term memories and form lasting friendships.

Jack and Allan are proof of that! These curious pigs were both raised for production purposes. Jack was likely rescued from a slaughter facility, while Allan was raised in a 4-H program and would have eventually been sold for meat. They met at a Humane Society and became fast friends. With our members' support, we gave them both a permanent home at Farm Sanctuary.

Missy, Jack, and Allan are now treated as someone, not something. Please help us continue to rescue, care for, and advocate on behalf of farm animals like them by joining us with your generous gift today.
