Every day, we receive hundreds of pounds of day-old produce donated by two grocery stores. Yesterday, an employee at one notified us that a 60lb pumpkin had failed to sell and did we want it? Um, do pigs love food? Yes!
Abby, sanctuary supervisor and Louie, animal caregiver, took a picture with the giant gourd.
And then it was time to abandon the pumpkin to its fate.
This is great! I love getting your newsletters and visiting your sanctuary with my children. I can hardly wait for new one to open, as well. Hope to see you real soon. (You guys know my family as the Mains :) )
I love your blog and enjoyed your animal pictures. I especially liked the blog about "The Giant Pumpkin".
My blog is about my personal animal rescue mission, called "My DogPatch".
This summer I saved 19 feral cats by hand-raising them and placing them in forever homes. It makes me feel good to be able to make a difference, just like you must feel good about your work.
I live in Sydney Australia and look forward to receiving your newsletter about the goings on at your wonderful sanctuary. One day I hope to visit the USA and see the work you do first hand. The Pumpkin story especially made me smile.
Animal Place nurtures compassion by rescuing and providing sanctuary to abused farmed animals, advocating on their behalf, and encouraging a healthful vegan lifestyle.
Marji Beach, Education Manager, writes most of the blog entries but look for a smattering of guest posts from other staff and volunteers!
