What Cats think about Pigs
Hello, I’m Antonella. For those of you who don’t know: Doris and Harald are under the impression that they are the bosses round here. The pigs think they are (the real pigs, not Doris and Harald!) and even Bruno the donkey sees himself as boss. But it’s not true, any of it: I’m the boss [...]
Why Piglets and pigs belong in fields
Piglets and other pigs in Europe live mostly in sheds. And almost always on slatted flooring. There is nothing for them to sniff at, to roll in or to dig up. And it’s exactly these things that pigs want to do! See for yourself!
Jackpot explores his meadow
When the weather is fine, Jackpot can always be found outside, searching in the meadow for anything edible to dig out.
In the sunshine
Jackpot likes to spend sunny days on his meadow, exploring the earth and feeling the warmth of the sun. All the other pictures of this photostream are available on Flickr.
Jackpot is visibly happy
As you can see in the following pictures, Jackpot has settled into his new home. He is eating well and getting to know his new environment. Today we were with him in his stable. But see for yourself! As always, there are more pictures on Flickr.

Piglet X11 moves to the sanctuary
Piglet X11 is moving out of the intensive pig farm today, and into an animal’s paradise! From now on he’ll be free to live as a pig was intended to live. He will be able to make his own decisions and won’t be “used” for any human purposes. The film shows the journey and the [...]
The Life
We don’t only want to show what a pig’s life is like is like in an intensive farm. We want to take one of these piglets and bring him to a sanctuary where he can run free with a herd of pigs breathing fresh air and allowed to live as long as pigs naturally live. [...]
