Pigs Sanctuarys - nice places for pigs

Where pigs can be happy and live the life they are supposed to live: Pig Sanctuarys

Pigs Peace Sanctuary

Unfortuanetly most pigs don´t have a good live. They are actually often treated really bad. And they are suffering just like humans. They have the conscience of 5 year olds. But luckily there are some places, far away from industrial production, where pigs are really happy: Pig Sanctuarys. In places like this they can live just as they like and are treated really good.

In the United States there is the Pigs Peace Sanctuary, a place where pigs can live in peace and happiness. :) You can check out their website. They have heart-warming stories about the pigs that came there. I also love the names and the portraits of the pigs. Too cute. ♥

helping another pig, that was born blind.

Happy places like this exist all over the world (altough they could and should be a lot more!). For example in Germany there is Gut Streiflach, a haven for old and endangered animals, where pigs live a happy life. 

One pig came there for example, because she was a price at a lottery. But the girl who got the pig didn´t know what to do with it, so it came to the sanctuary. Another pig, called Bomber, was living for a long time only in a house. So he was really clean and not used to bath in the mud. That was a problem: the mud usually protects the pigs from the sun. So Bomber always got a sunburn in sunny weather. Therefore the guys from Gut Streiflach had to give him sunscreen.

I hope there will be more pig sanctuarys and happy places for pigs in the future! It´s just something we owe these wonderful creatures!

A moving story of a cat and a pig - eine rührende Geschichte von Schwein und Katze

 Eine schöne Geschichte gefunden auf the Shanghaiist:

The cat and the pig are good friends. One day, the cat fell into a huge hole, and the pig came to her rescue with some rope, the entire length of which he threw promptly into the hole. The cat cried out, "Now how on earth are you going to pull me up?" The pig replied, "Then what should I do?" The cat said, "Well you should be pulling one end of the rope, of course!" The pig then jumped into the hole, held on to one end of the rope, and said to the cat, "Now we're talking!" The cat began to weep. She wept bitter tears, but they were tears of joy. Some friends are not very smart, but they're worth keeping for life.

「猫和猪是好朋友。一天猫掉进大坑,猪拿来绳子,猫叫猪把绳子扔下来,结果它整捆扔下去。猫郁闷地说：这样你怎么拉我上去？！猪说：不然怎么做？猫 说：你应该拉住一头绳子啊！猪就跳下去,拿了绳子的一头说：现在可以了！猫哭了,哭得很幸福。 有种朋友不是很聪明,却值得你终生拥有。」
