Pigs
Iric
Iric is a gem. He has the look of a sensitive artist type. His heart is so pure and honest. He was born here at the sanctuary by a mama who was confiscated from a neglect situation. Iric is one of the lucky ones. He will never know anything but love and respect. We love his freckly ears and his earnest expression
Rachel
Just look at that face! Rachel is brilliant and you can see in her eyes that she is figuring out whether or not you have come bearing treats. Unlike her mother who was confiscated from a neglect situation, Rachel was born at Kindred Spirits Care Farm and will never know anything but love and respect her whole life. How could anyone ever look into those eyes and not fall in love?
Mouse
Miss Mouse was born here at Kindred Spirits Care Farm on August 25th, 2019. Her mama, Durga, was confiscated from a neglect situation where many pigs were living without care in a back yard. Predictably, almost all the females were pregnant, and when Durga was due to have her babies, her overwhelmed rescuers reached out to us. When Miss Mouse was born, she was such a tiny, grey little bundle we thought she looked like a mouse. She is the smallest and the smartest of her siblings and we will love her forever.
Gordy
Abandoned by his people and waiting to die, Gordy got lucky and was rescued by an angel by the name of Andrew. Andrew found Gordy a great home with a woman and her daughter who has Down’s syndrome. Gordy was in hog heaven for years until the mother got cancer and could not cope with her illness, her daughter’s needs and Gordy at the same time. Fortunately, Andrew came to his rescue again, but by this time Gordy was a nine-year-old, very chubby pig, and his chances for adoption were slim. But the angels were on Gordy’s side again, because right about that time we started looking for a friend for Peanut. Once we met Gordy, we knew resistance was futile. Now he waddles around the farm getting more exercise than he probably prefers, but just enough to help him shed those extra pounds and keep him healthy. The school kids and visitors adore his gentle nature, and he will live at Kindred Spirits Care Farm, loved by all, for the rest of his days.
Peanut
Like so many pigs of her kind, Peanut was purchased as a kids’ toy when she was tiny. Her people had no idea how to raise a pig or what her needs were. As she grew, the behaviors that were so cute when she was 15 pounds were no longer cute when she got to be 50 pounds, so they decided to dump her. Luckily for our porcine wonder-girl, a fabulous pig rescuer heard of her plight and stepped in to save the day. Now Miss Peanut is the queen of our farmyard. She knows she is loved (adored may be a better word) and can be the piggy she was always meant to be. She gets the best piggy food supplemented by lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. There is a mud hole for wading and trees for shade and plenty of friends of all types. She is even learning how to become a therapy pig so she can brighten the days of people off the farm.
Alice
Alice was rescued from a lab where humans did some sort of experiments on her. She is still learning to trust, but she is becoming more and more comfortable around people. Particularly people who come bearing treats! Please help us show Alice that the rest of her days will be nothing but love.
Martha
Martha spent her early life as an experimental animal in a lab. We can’t imagine what her life was like there, but now she spends her days exploring her environment and doing as she pleases. One of Martha’s favorite activities is digging in the dirt. She is hoping to find some buried treasure – like a yam or a grape that has been dropped for starters. Won’t you help us keep Martha entertained and in treats?
Felix
When Felix was a baby, he was bought to be a companion and pet. But soon his family found out that having a pet pig is much more expensive than they expected – he needed teeth and hooves trimmed as well as special veterinary care. So Felix was surrendered to a shelter, where he might have been euthanized except someone brought him to our attention. Now Felix is the newest member of our family. Would you like to sponsor Felix to show him how happy we are that he has joined us?
Talulah
Talulah was lost and alone, a poor little girl wandering the streets of Los Angeles. She is a sensitive piggy and was very scared to be on her own. Lucky for all of us, a kind lady decided to help. With her husband they caught her, put her in the car and drove her to Kindred Spirits Care Farm.
Talulah is one of those sweet and sensitive pigs who will flop for a tummy rub. When she loves, she loves with all her heart. We are thrilled that this precious girl has joined our family and will never be lost again. Would you like to sponsor Talulah and show her how much you care that she is safe with friends?
