Did someone say #transformationtuesday 🐽❤️ ?
When Gus first arrived in his new home he was morbidly obese. He struggled to walk even a short distance and had completely shut down. It took so much patience, love and care from his new mama to get him to where he is today.
We just love to see him potter around the paddock with his new friend, Blue ❤️
Happy #transformationtuesday to John and Ather ❤️
These two sweethearts are still fairly new to our foster ranks. Originally a bonded pair, their previous family separated them due to a few disputes. We believe this was likely due to the environment they were kept in and testosterone levels, as they hadn’t been neutered.
The boys were neutered once in our care and, after making a full recovery, we are excited to report that they have been slowly reintroduced over the last week. We can’t say they are best friends again just yet but to sleep in the same space peacefully is a big step in the right direction! 💛🐷
Happy #transformationtuesday to sweet Pearl and Pandora 🥰 #pigrescue #animalrescue
Let’s brighten up this dreary Monday!
We were recently contacted by a lovely person who had rescued two piggies and discovered an unexpected litter on the way. Naturally, we were only too happy to offer our support and guidance! ♥️ 🐖
We believe Cinnamon is a first-time mama, so we wanted to ensure she had everything she needed for a safe, peaceful delivery.
Her dad did such an amazing job creating a cosy birthing suite and has been with her every step of the way.
As her due date approached, we all grew a bit anxious, knowing how many things can go wrong. But this morning, Cinnamon gave birth to 11 beautiful little souls 🐽
Everyone is doing well, we think Mama is just extremely relieved that she doesn’t have to carry them all anymore!
🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖
Accidents happen, we have assisted in rehoming 3 other surprise litters this year from separate cases, but with our caseload already full of piggies needing homes, it’s crucial to emphasise the importance of neutering.
If you adopt or rescue a pig and are unsure of their neuter status, do not trust the breeder’s or previous family’s word alone. Please keep males and females separate and arrange an assessment with your vet 🧑⚕️
As cute as babies may be, there are already so many beautiful, lonely animals in the world needing somewhere to call home!
When they are ready, we will be looking for suitable forever homes. For now, we are just grateful that they are here, safe, and so loved. ♥️🐽
WARNING - DISTRESSING ‼️
UPDATE: These girls have now been moved to a wonderful new home and are beginning the long process of becoming the healthy, happy, well-loved pigs they deserve to be.
As you can see in the video these poor pigs are being kept in terrible conditions. What you see in the video is their entire living space. They spend every second of their lives in this tiny little area, which is extremely unclean and unhygienic, putting them at constant risk of infection and disease. As a result of having almost no room to move and being overfed they are very overweight and have trouble walking or even standing up for any length of time. 😔
WE HAVE A GREAT NEW HOME FOR THEM 🏠
This home is ready to take Pearl and Pandora in immediately and they have a qualified vet waiting to assess them. The current owners are willing to surrender them.
Can you help us with the costs of transporting them? We are still calculating the exact costs but whatever you can contribute will be very gratefully received.

Repost from our friends over at Dogs 4 Rescue 💚
Good morning you wonderful lot 🐷
We need your help.
We currently have 74 pigs on our caseload and are receiving around 2 rehoming applications per day...YET we have very few homes coming forward!
We have just launched an advertising campaign in hope that we can reach more potential homes.
Please help us in our mission by sharing this far and wide.
We have new initiatives in place to support and guide prospective adopters in setting up the perfect home. So, If you know of anyone with a piggy shaped hole in their life, please send them our way!

How To... 🌱VEGANUARY🌱
Every Pig Rescue have been putting the feelers out there and we were over the moon to see that lots of you wanted some Veganuary-based content to help you get involved. This new series is designed to do just that - we'll have recipes, swaps, tips and more to help you through Veganuary and beyond.
With that said, here's an unbelievably easy recipe using one of the most misunderstood ingredients - tofu. This is a staple for many long-term vegans, but it can be a little intimidating for newbies. This sticky, cripsy sesame tofu recipe proves that it's not only easy to work with, but can taste amazing (and it's budget friendly to boot!).
Ingredients (serves 2):
🌱For the Tofu:
200-300g firm Tofu *We recommend Aldi Super Firm (it's 99p!) or Tofoo Co Extra Firm.*
2 tbsp Cornflour
Vegetable Oil
🌱For the Sauce:
5 tbsp Soy Sauce
3 tbsp Maple Syrup (or agave)
2 tbsp Tomato Ketchup
2 tbsp Garlic Puree
1 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar (OR Rice Wine Vinegar / Apple Cider Vinegar)
2 tbsp Water
🌱Method:
- Slice tofu evenly. Place in tupperware, add cornflour and shake well to coat the tofu.
- In a large frying pan, heat 1-2cm of oil on medium-high heat.
- Carefully add the tofu to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes each side, until crispy and browned, then set aside on kitchen towel to remove excess oil.
- Add and whisk sauce ingredients together in a jug, before pouring into a separate, dry pan over a medium heat. Warm through until just bubbling and thickening slightly.
- Add the cooked tofu and coat well,
- Serve tofu on a bed of rice and garnish with spring onions and sesame seeds.

Feeding time for the rescue pigs at Lotus Lamb & Sheep Sanctuary!
Hayley recently asked Georgina for the recipe to the sweet cinnamon rescue porridge EPR uses, to help the pigs through the current cold snap. ❄ Of course she was more than happy to oblige, and just look how well it went down with the pigs! We also love how Hayley checks on everyone to see how they're enjoying the new menu - is there anything more wholesome?
All of these pigs were rescued by EPR, including one particularly harrowing farm case. Thankfully, they are now under the loving care of Lotus Lamb and Sheep Sanctuary, where they are living THE best lives they could wish for (in case you couldn't tell). 🐖💚
