UPDATE.. we have him safe in our trailer … after two attempts, a lot of worrying about what ifs…a lot of planning and too many bruises (on the humans not Bacon!) So he is SAFE.

Emergency Placement and Help Needed

We attempted to rescue /pick up a very loved pig from Flint area today. Very friendly and 100% a pet to this family. Bacon is however homeless as of yesterday and attempts to pick up were a fail. He is very large and very much was not having it with us loading. This is emergent circumstance so he isnt left homeless.

Is there any miracle farm family type placement options for him? Anyone looking to add a friendly docile very large farm pig to their lives?? And can do so immediately…

It’s in immediate.. immediate need.

He would need a trailer with ramp or very strong Walk on ramp.? It’s a team effort needed to load…

Adding a video… Ohh! He is neutered too already and about 2-3 years old.

PICTURES FEATURING.. HAMLET. (our senior special needs Alpena abandonment & pig napping case)... Hamlet is an older piggie who was the center of an abandonment case we took in this early summer time transferred from Alpine Sheriff & Animal Control ...his owner abandoned him in a foreclosed property and then pig napped him from animal control once he was to safety... Hamlet suffers from terrible arthritis and many body scars from life of hell that we dont know the cause just know he has pain from it. He took himself a nice cold stroll this morning out of his pen which is GREAT that he walked that much because his mobility was highly concerning.... he fell right down for the belly rubs and is an absolute gem of a sweetheart & we adore him here...

Waldo... that nosey nose into the camera view... That's Waldo! The Waldo the Wandering pig of Avoca that keep the town on its toes trying to catch him for a long time... some great people caught him and he is now living his life here in our resident sanctuary...

and then we have Leonard... another awful abandonment case out of Genesee County Animal Control ... left behind for nearly year in a hoard abandonded home being fed by the squatters... and trust me his diet was super bad but he's OK and he is thriving now for sure! Leonard is older and SUPER SWEET. He loves people and loves his sleep... this pic was caught in his moment of being curious who was stopping by his pen! (Usually he is sound asleep next to his shelter!)

🎃 POST-HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN COLLECTION TIME! 🌽🐷🐐🐰

Hey friends! As the fall decorations start coming down, our rescue family at Rooted in Love Rescue & Sanctuary would love to give your leftover pumpkins, corn stalks, hay, and straw bales a second life — as treats, bedding, and enrichment for our rescued animals! 🧡
Once you’re finished displaying your beautiful fall décor, please consider donating it to our animals instead of tossing it away. They absolutely love pumpkins, and we put every piece of hay and straw to good use keeping them cozy and happy.
✅ We can do mass neighborhood pickups or individual home pickups — whatever works best for you!
✅ If you know of a pumpkin patch or store that discounts or donates leftover pumpkins after Halloween, please reach out or pass along our info — we’d be so grateful!
📩 Message our page or comment below to arrange a pickup or share a lead. Or TEXT 810-751-0201.
Let’s make this a fun, community-powered effort to bless the animals this fall!
With gratitude,
🌻 The Rooted in Love Rescue & Sanctuary Family
