I gave Hudson a dental chew for some enrichment while I cleaned the house, and the muchins were just too cute not to share. I hope his adorable face improves your day 🥹🖤

Please tell Hudson how adorable he is in the comments because he clearly deserves to know. 😍

🤍🐖 Happy Winnie Wednesday!! 🐖🤍

I got this adorable shot of Winnie last night at sunset, and I just knew it was the perfect Winnie Wednesday post. 🥰 I mean, look at that face. Is she not the cutest beansprout you've ever seen? 🥹

We are halfway through the week, and I hope it's been a good one for everyone. Things here have been busy and productive. We've finally had a break from storms every day, and the weather has actually been beautiful! So Malcolm and I have been spending lots of time outside, working on chores and spending time with the animals.

My favorite time to explore the sanctuary and visit all the babies is a late summer sunset. You can feel the crispness of fall approaching, the sunsets are happening just a little earlier, and it's such a beautiful, peaceful time to slow down, reflect, and enjoy the presence of so many lovely little beings.

Sending love from Winnie and the gang here at Figgy Farm. ❤️

Powerful words from Joaquin Phoenix.

We need more people with platforms, influence, and status to speak up for animals. People who are willing to use their voices for those who's voices aren't being heard.

Because the truth is, it can be overwhelming to think about the suffering happening to animals every single day. To know that we can't save them all. To know that, no matter how hard we work, there is still so much suffering happening beyond our reach.

Sometimes I stop and think about where our own animals came from...

Sweetest Winnie would have spent her entire life confined to a concrete cage, only to be sl@ughtered at six months old.

Stormy was going to be sh0t in the head at just a few hours old simply because she was born without eyes.

Pigsley would still be living a life of fear, being beaten and abused simply for being a pig.

And that thought breaks my heart. Because I know who these animals actually are. Winnie is the sweetest, most gentle soul. Stormy is curious, hilarious, affectionate, and completely full of life. Pigsley is so much more than a pig someone decided wasn't worth protecting. She is an individual with her own personality, preferences, fears, and joys.

And yet, here they are. Full of personality, love, and light. Living the peaceful lives they always deserved.

This is why we keep going despite the overwhelming reality.

I envision a world that is so much kinder to animals. A world where they aren't seen as products, commodities, or things we are entitled to use, but as individuals whose lives matter.

I don't know if I'll live to see that world, but I hope I do.

And until then, I'll keep working toward it. ❤️

You guys, I’m so sorry this post has been a LONG time coming. 😅

A while back, toward the end of winter, we were dealing with some pretty serious mud issues in our high-traffic areas. Unfortunately, this is a common problem at sanctuaries, especially when you have big pigs. They’re heavy, they love to root, and all that rooting + dozens of little (and not so little 😂) feet walking the same paths can create some deep mud in the areas where they spend the most time.

Our original goal was to raise enough money for mud control grids and have them properly installed. As our community so often does, you absolutely blew our goal out of the water. 🥹

That allowed us to tackle the problem in an even better way: with concrete pads.

And WOW, what a difference they have made.

The pigs now have solid, stable ground to walk onto when they come out of their houses, which makes getting around so much easier. The concrete also naturally helps wear down their hooves, meaning they need less frequent hoof trimming. And from a cleaning standpoint? They are a DREAM. Every few weeks, I clean out their houses and power wash the pads, and they are incredibly easy to keep clean.

They have genuinely made life so much better here, for the pigs and for us.

In total, we had three large concrete pads installed, and we cannot thank you enough for making that possible. 🫶

We started Figgy Farm with a dream and a much-too-small budget. We bought raw land and have been slowly turning it into a functional, safe sanctuary for pigs, cows, and sheep. It has been one of the most stressful and rewarding things we have ever done. We have learned so much along the way, and we are still learning every single day.

Thank you for being here with us through all of it. Thank you for helping us turn this dream into a reality. And thank you for giving us the ability to create a beautiful, safe home for so many rescued animals.

This is where your donation dollars go.

Right back to the animals. Into better housing, safer spaces, easier care, and little improvements that make their lives better every single day. 🫶

Claudia & Irene have the right idea! 🐽🤍

With the extremely high temperatures we’re experiencing this weekend, these two smart girls have been spending lots of time cooling off under the shade of the trees in their woods. 😌🌳

Our little woodland fairy pigs! 🧚‍♀️🐖✨

A big thank you to Irene’s awesome sponsor, Bobby. ❤️

Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend and staying cool! ☀️🤍

It’s been a while since I’ve updated you all on Nani, and she recently had a vet visit, so I wanted to let you know how she’s doing. 🤍

If you’re new here, Nani is the first dog Malcolm and I rescued together. She’s getting ready to turn 15 years old this month!! 🥹

When she was 13, we battled a terrifying nasal fungal infection, scary treatment, and ultimately lost her eye due to complications from the infection. There was a time we didn’t think she’d make it to 14.

Now, as she approaches 15, we are overjoyed to say that she’s doing very well. 🥹

She’s now on medication for her arthritis pain, and we recently started treating her for suspected EPI after she struggled to maintain her weight despite eating plenty of food. EPI can prevent dogs from properly digesting and absorbing nutrients. She’s started Pan-tenex and B12, and we’re really hopeful we’ll see improvements soon. 🤞

Unfortunately, these needs have come at a difficult time for the sanctuary.

We were in the middle of planning our major winter prep fundraiser when we were hit with some really intense storms that left the farm extremely wet, damaged, and in need of some TLC.

On top of that, our everyday operating costs have been overwhelming lately.

Shavings. Feed. Produce. Utilities. Vet bills. Medications. Supplements. Fly spray. Minerals. The list never ends.

I’m always trying to penny-pinch, find deals, and stretch every donation as far as possible. But right now, we could really use some support.

I know the economy is rough, and I completely understand if donating isn’t possible. But if you can spare $1 or $5, or even $15 in honor of Nani turning 15 🥰, it would mean so much to us and to the animals who depend on us every day. 🙏🐖🤍

Thank you for helping us keep this place going. 🖤

This is what all pigs deserve. 🤍🐖

To feel safe.
To be loved.
To have a life that belongs to them.

Not a product.
Not a meal.
Just Gus. 🤍
