Molly Takes a Trip
From Chubby Goat Acres:
Yesterday was an extremely busy day for us here, and in the stress and rush of saving Reggie, we had no time to share it with you.
We took Bonnie, mama to the Saginaw Scientists, down to Purdue Large Animal Hospital to be spayed. When we were there, we picked up two lovely Cornish chickens, Tom and Crinkle (pics to come), who were rescued by a vet student there.
Then, we headed up to Ahimsa Safe Haven to pick up Molly, mama to the Saginaw Civil Rights Leaders, and Harriet (formerly Amelia). It was so fulfilling to see them, Teddy (formerly Clyde), and Capone. They are incredibly happy in their new digs, with lots of grass to graze in and am enormous wallow. Luckily the girls loaded up easily- Capone tried to go along for a ride- and we were off.
That’s when we got the call about Reggie and plans changed.
Thankfully, we were able to leave our trailer there, and Chris raced down to Ohio to work on saving Reggie. Cari, the founder of Ahimsa, sprang into action looking for transporters. Cari’s dad and Dave ended up hauling Molly and Harriet down to Erin's Farm NFP, since Purdue was closed by then. Erin is incredible, and stepped up to make sure those two ladies completed their trip for their spays today.
Yesterday was exhausting, intense, and very long. We were able to accomplish so much because of the close friendships with other sanctuaries and animal advocates. When we work together, the animals win.

Molly is Doing Well
My heart! ❤️🐽🐷 Our 4 pig pigs are doing so well here. We figured out a way to expand their pasture into the woods before fall, and they will have an amazing little cove surrounded by tall trees to relax in. Molly and Harriet have recovered well from their spays, and life is only looking up for these kids! I’m so excited and happy for them.

Molly Goes On a Adventure
Our dearest Molly had quite the adventure this morning. We have been working hard to get our big pigs a new pasture with a sturdier fence, but it’s not quite ready for them. Molly decided she didn’t want to wait! I got a call this morning from one of the guys working on her new house telling me she was in the neighbor’s field! I immediately headed out to bring her back in. However, the woods has a lot yummier things than the carrots I was trying to woo her with, and it became clear quite quickly that I was going to need help. My dad and our board member/business manager Allie rushed to buy watermelons and came out immediately. After following her around the yard and through the woods for 45 minutes, watermelon did the trick and we were able to lure her back into the pen. PHEW. She sniffed around, and then went right in for a nap because that was exhausting! 🤣 This makes their new pasture all the more exciting though because they are so ready for it! Our pigs are microchipped (because you never know!) but I’m so glad she stayed close. Someone also ate the pumpkins on my front porch, and while I have no solid proof, I have very strong suspicions… 🐷
