Before coming to Farm Sanctuary, Missy was used for breeding: Any piglets she had would’ve been slaughtered for meat. 💔 She spent her days alone in a pen, which is a nightmare for pigs because they’re extremely social beings and need friends, space, and stimulation. Pigs can actually grow so depressed when their basic needs aren’t met that they will stop eating and lose the will to live. Missy broke free at every chance, only aggravating her “owner” more and more. Instead of providing Missy with the care and attention she needed, they chose to send her to slaughter—but luckily, she ended up with us. Now, Missy spends her days adventuring in the pastures with pig friends and enjoying unlimited belly rubs. She’s finally living the life she deserves.

Massage therapy is good for everyone! Being touch deprived does contribute to depression,unnourished needs are left not being touched. People do not survive or thrive. Thankfully you were there for her, she is now thriving in your loving arms, nurtured by the Farm Sanctuary staff, pastures and pigs in this social nurturing setting forever !!

1moI love all animals. They should all be treated this way and not being afraid. And leave the wild animals alone. They deserve to have a life, too. 🐷 🐀 🐿 🐭 ALL of them!
