Alfie is a very lucky pig. If Sasha @BTWsanctuary hadn't saved him, he would have been 1 of the 4 million pigs killed for meat every day.

Alfie & piggy friends' lives were changed from this to this.

Become a #Pigoneer here to help care for them. It only costs 9p a day👇💚🐷💚🫶

I am so proud of you for saving these precious animals. Pigs are among the most abused and misunderstood creatures. I am totally against all animal slaughter for any reason ever.

This month we say goodbye, good luck & a huge thank you, from us & the animals, to our amazing colleague & dedicated care team member Anwen, leaving FARS to take up a university place 👩‍🎓👏

What an AMAZING human ❤️ A wonderful future lies ahead 🎓 but we'll miss her SO much 😭

October already 🍂

But we're still seeing – & feeling 🤗 – some beautiful days here in the #Warwickshire countryside, allowing plenty of precious "outdoor time" for the animals 🐑🌳☀️

We know that winter will soon be here but are cherishing every last drop of autumn sunshine 🐏🔆

A simply stunning human 🥹

We're heartbroken 💔

The world can't afford to lose such a compassionate soul, such a powerful voice for animals 😢

But we're so v glad she lived, & grateful for all she did to open eyes & hearts to the beauty & intelligence of non-human primates 🐒

#SanctuaryLife can be hard & tiring & sometimes sad, but it's also full to the brim with moments of utter joy 💖

When we see our residents living their best lives, being the animals they need & want to be, free from fear, oppression & exploitation, it makes us immensely happy 🤗🐑🐔🐈🐖❤️
