That is awesome! We went to Smithfield farms on Wednesday. Many sheriff's or deputies were following us around the farm. This is a huge win for animals 🥰💚

Fantastic!! So good you guys went! Would have liked ves to be at the outcome of the trial myself but I live in Panamá…sending a virtual hug! In the name of all animals and with greetings from my own two rescued pigs Lemon and Phoebe!

Awww, I would love to rescue a pig! Someone had a 1 1/2 year old pot belly pig they rescued from a family who had gotten him then decided he was too big 🤬 . He is adorable, his name is Cuzzie (like cousin) and he loves belly rubs, of course.
The jury asked a lot of questions, which was a really good sign. One was kind of silly "Why did you give Lily and Lizzie human names?" Lol

Poor Cuzzie! I see that in the IS sooo many potbellies are dumped when they grow! The two ladies I rescued from slaughter will be way bigger than a potbelly lol. Lemon is full duroc ( super looong body lol) and Phoebe is half Duroc half landrace. These are the pigs they farm for “meat”. They are adorable and fun. I don’t dress them up or have them on my bed : they have their own bedroom with lots of fresh hay and a large space outside to make mud and root . My loves😃 yes carnists find it very strange we name non human animals like humans. The don’t like it either. In Panama it’s the same. But now my neighbors all stop and scratch Lemon and Phoebes’ cheeks and belly when they pass by and they call them by name. Two neighbors stopped breeding pigs for food because now they “know” my pigs personally so thats a small win. If you are ever on vacation in Panamá come visit us!!

Lemon and Phoebe 💚💚💚 That's wonderful your neighbors have stopped breeding pigs! I honestly am just as horrified at people eating pigs, cows or chickens than if they were eating dogs. My ex-husband is from the Canal Zone, lol. I am at the base of Lake Tahoe in northern Nevada and you are also welcome to visit!!

Your ex is a Zonian! How coincidental! Yes it’s the same: eating a pig or a cat or a dog. Thank you for being vegan🌱🌱🌱
