Meet Alysoun, saved from slaughter
- 28
- Jan
Many of the animals who trot through our barnyard doors are victims of small, family farms. When Alysoun’s mom abandoned her at a small pasture-based farm raising pigs for slaughter, the farmer decided it was not worth their time or money to save her. The rancher abandoned the piglet, leaving her to die. Another employee took her home. A local rescue, Jameson Animal Rescue Ranch in Napa, California, stepped up to help the piglet.
When we learned that the piglet needed a permanent home, we offered ours! One of our recent rescues, Bert, was having a hard time integrating with two other pigs, Rock and Rita. Little Bert was a bit timid around the two larger pigs…and a lot more active! He needed a younger friend who would keep him company in his stall and out in the group’s pasture. We thought this little red-headed piglet might be a good fit.
Alysoun (formerly Lucy*) was spayed and convalesced in the rescue’s foster home. Then it was time for Alysoun to meet Bert! Things did not go quite as planned.
Instead of being excited to meet Alyson, Bert was, well, rather terrified of her. We set up a special kennel inside of Bert’s stall to house Alysoun at night, so that Bert would feel safe to sleep inside his big bed of straw. Then we waited…

Luckily we didn’t have to wait long! After a few days, Bert decided Alysoun was okay and now the two are inseparable. They were recently introduced to Rock and Rita…who welcomed the two youngsters. The four will enjoy the rest of their lives together, in their private barn and pasture.
Pigs are vibrant animals. They live life to the fullest, are expressive and fierce. If you visit a sanctuary and meet one, you will learn quickly how similar they are to the dogs many of us share our homes with…yet how disconnected many of us remain to these inquisitive, emotional animals! Adopting a vegan lifestyle is a simple expression of respect for pigs like Alysoun and Bert.
*We currently have a pig named Lucy, so opted to name the new piglet after one of our generous supporters, Alysoun Mahoney.

So sweet there are good people in this world I just hope they make up for all the rotten specimens.
You guys always do a super job!!!! It’s nice to see gr8 people who do great things! !!!
Yes it is. I couldnt have said it better. This place is all that. So much bad . Animals depend on their humans. If I was a millionaire I’d put animals first on my donation list. All the old money in the world collecting dust and getting older. DONATE PLEASE
My thoughts exactly…
Here’s wishing humans show as. much humanity as our animals do…
I think you guys are awesome and do wonderful work for animals. We have to be an advocate for those who have no voice!!!
I HAVE NEVER MET AN ANIMAL THAT I DID IMMEDIATELY LIKE. I SEEM TO LOVE ALL ANIMALS!
I am unable to more than sign petitions that help animals, so thank you for all you do for those precious babies.
I was Vegetarian for 28 years. I stopped eating animals as I didn’t want to be part of their suffering. At age 71, I started living a Vegan Lifestyle, several months ago, after haring and viewing things in the Dairy industry, which broke my heart. I eat healthy, clean, and best of all, no animals suffers and dies for what I eat.

It’s all about the animals.
i hearing how crude the farmers can be and heartless, all for a dollar – consumers need to start thinking of better diets like vegan!
Animal Place does such good work! I’m always so happy to see their Rescued Animals. Animals who might have been slaughtered but saved by this sanctuary. I hope ALYSOUN Continues to do well with her new friends.
I am planning to donate again. And I hope to visit Animal Place Soon.
This is such a beautiful story. I am in shock of this farmer. Horrible.
Yes, that would be nice!!!
Absolutely there is still is some good!

Thank you for all you do. I wish we could end factory farming and the slaughter of animals for food in general. I realize progress is being made, but its so horrific. Alysoun and Bert look so happy together!
This is so wonderful. Thank you.
Thanks for saving the animals.
Alysoun and Bert are just too sweet
Thanks for the heartwarming introduction story
So thrilled for all your piglets
Keep up the great work!
Awesome!!!!!!
Such a beautiful, heartwarming story. Bert and Alysoun are besties now! Thank God for Animal Place and thank you for all you do for the animals
who need you.
They are so sweet together ! Bert and Alysoun are happy valentines! and will never see a slaughter truck in their precious lifetimes…all souls are sacred! And all animals are sacred teachers for us….A good read about what they have come to teach us is SACRED TEACHERS IN FUR….xoxo Adrienne
What a wonderful story!!! I’ve always loved pigs since I was a little girl. Thank you for sharing!!
Wow- what a wonderful story! You are my true heroes!!!! Thank you for all you do …you are phenomenal!!!
I LOVE this story!! I am a LOVER of Pigs too… 🙂 SO glad they are all together!!
Do pigs get along with Jack Russell terriers? I would love to adopt one but I have a diva in my midst. She bullies my airedale.
WONDERFUL TO HEAR THIS LOVELY STORY ABOUT THIS DARLING PIGLET !!!!!!
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE ANIMALS !!!!!
Love that you saved the piglets.! It makes me feel thankful that there are people like you.
I have shed many tears over the horrific plight of animals and mistreatment by those sadistic so called “humans.”
I have shed SO MANY TEARS over the horrible treatment of animals at the hands of humans too….it was good to read your words at this moment.
That’s all….just nice to meet another “one of us”.
What a great story. I’m so happy for these pigs and for Animal Place. Thank you so much for what you do for animals.. Thank you..
It’s just unfair and inhumaine to leave any animal to die with no food and water alone !! This is cruel and yet this is a current practice by the farmers .
They have no heart , one day life will teach them a lesson sooner or later it will come in full cycle . Karma your actions always comes back to you …so wait one day they will get their turn …❤️❤️❤️ Animal place you have a big heart and thank you for giving a home to these abused and unwanted animals…xxxx
This is awesome ! I am a vegan and love all beings!!!?
Thank you so very much for all you do. You are my heroes. My dream is to visit your sanctuary someday .
Thank you for saving Alysoun and happy that little Bert now has a friend all because of your patience and hard work. THANK YOU and all the volunteers!
God bless you & thank you for all the wonderful work you do for these non-human angels. They’re beautiful, intelligent & they deserve respect & love. I love you, Alysoun, Bert & all the animals &, lovely staff at animal place!
A ginger pig! I love it!!!
Great to read a happy story about farm animals. They are treated the worst of all animals. Factory farms are an abomination. Pigs are smarter than most people i know.
It’s heartbreaking the way most of our society views animal welfare or should I say doesn’t view animal welfare. Thank you for such a heartwarming story about one of the most abused animals and one of my favorites… the smart, precocious, adorable pig!! I loved the pix too, they made my day!! God bless the pigs and God bless you!!
I love hearing stories like these. Remember Mr. G and Jellybean? Another happy couple. Thank you so much Animal Place for all the lives you have saved.
Thank you for taking her in and giving her a wonderful life! So glad Bert now has a new buddy to play with and can now integrate in with the others. Looks like Alysoun was a great match for him 🙂
I LUV pigs! I’m a Vegan for 40 years I I can’t imagine eating pigs..or any other animal….I have 8 pets.
All of these precious beings don’t deserve to b barbarically killed and eaten. Meat eaters r a sub species.
LUV
Thank you! The abuse of animals is legal – in
the form of horrific Factory Farms. It’s all about
POWER – the power of humans whether “corporate”
or individually. Behind this abuse are the USELESS
laws!! Punishment to “the full extent of the law”
is no punishment at all. A small fine (sometimes) or
a week in jail – free board and food and the
companionship of other abusers with whom to share
their wretched crimes against animals.
Thank you, again, for your compassion and
RESPECT for creatures who cannot help
themselves.
I agree with Rosemary Gilbert completely. I am an animal advocate and have been rescuing animals for over 20 years. They are my passion! I have been a vegetarian for 16 years, and would have it no other way. Alysoun and her piglet friend are just adorable!!!
I think animals are the most precious creatures on this earth, and I love being their voice!!! I will fight for them the rest of my life.
Thank you Animal Place for all you do!!!!!
God bless and keep them safe ~ such great work being done!
Your are so kind to help the animals, who can people be so curel to helpless animals of any kind. My donation is on it’s way to Animal Place, Please keep up the good work.
I too have always held a soft spot for pigs. Thank you and all who love, respect and care for these intelligent animals. May you continue your great work.
What a wonderful story. So glad there is a happy pig family…another successful pig story. Would love to drive up and spend time with them.
I have always wanted to Kiss a piglet. Their little faces fill my heart with so much love. Thank you for everything you do for animals.
Fantastic! Hope she lives a long life!
I don’t eat meat of any kind, although I do eat fish, though not shell fish.
I’m in favor of farm sanctuaries.
That ADORABLE PICTURE just grabbed me from all my work and all I could do was sit and stare. I, too , love doggie kisses , piggie kisses , horsie kisses , you name it . Stopped eating meat 30 years ago , never looked back. Animals are SO much better than ( most ) people , hands down . They are the angels on this earth , those who help them are blessed beyond words . As you are , you’ve earned your wings and you’re going UP ! Thank you so and have a great life ! You deserve it !
How perfect! She is so adorable, and the last picture is so wonderful. Thank you for saving so many wonderful animals & giving them forever homes.
I love the pictures and so happy that the two piglets are inseparable.
I have had the fortune and have been blessed with having potbellied pigs as a part of my family since 1990 when we first got Pugsly as a family pet. Now we have Otis and Freckles. Otis is 15 and Freckles another 4 year old male has bonded with Otis. Otis’s sister petunia passed away almost three years ago. And Freckles was a much-needed companion as Otis was depressed and lonely after losing his sister. Pigs are so intelligent and possess such unique, different personalities. They are a delight and a treasure for all of the kids and people who come to see them in my neighborhood.
I’m so glad that you can share a life with such wonderful friends, and that they have each other as well!
You are wonderful people. May God bless you and provide you with a beautiful life for all of your kind deeds.
Bless you for your kindness in rescuing and caring for these darling animals, and mostly, for giving them a second chance at life.
Pigs are among my most favorite animals, for their high intelligence and loving ways. They are vastly misunderstood and generally, not appreciated. Too bad, for they will bring much pleasure to those who understand and care for them. I decry the fact that they are often despicably abused.
God bless you for caring so much about these animals! The world needs to pay attention to your compassion and then maybe someday all animals will live in peace. ❤
They are SO cute together ! Thank you for taking her in.
I am sure Bert is very happy to have a companion.
~smile~
A lovely story. I’m so glad I clicked!
Thank you for your kindness. I love little pigs, I love all animals, and I pray people understand that animals have a right to a happy and safe life. Let us protect them! I became a vegan so those precious animals will not be slaughtered.
Animals depend on us. Please don’t hunt/shoot them or abuse them. Thank you!!!
What a truly lovely story!
It is the best valentine I could get ……just reading about the
two pigs. So happy they are saved.
What a sweet story!
Always so gratifying to hear a good story in the midst of so much suffering for these innocent animals. You do wonderful work!
My mother adopted a pig who had been used as barter for sewing projects. “Faye Emerson” came with a leash. Faye stayed with us until she was too big. She was placed in another home where she became a mother. Faye loved our Newfoundland dog and loved following the mailman.
Thank you soooooo much for all you do to help our fellow creatures. It breaks my heart to know that there are people , like that cruel farmer, who are capable of such disregard for innocent lives.
Thank you for this special love story and for helping this beautiful pig have a happy place to live.
We need more devoted people in the world like you who help our innocent precious pets from cruel and inhumane treatment. God bless all of you.
Yesterday was my birthday (67 years ) old. Reading this site made me realize that i will start to avoid all pork for beginners.
Thanks, it’s nice to see honest, caring people out there.
Politicians take note.
These two adorable piglets are so little. How old are they, and what breed?
Thank you for all you do to make the lives of these wonderful creatures @ Animal Place. Wish I could work at a place like yours, where loving animals is the number one priority.
(made an oops) to make their lives “better”.
Many naive people don’t ever think that pastured animals on small family farms are abused. Wrong!
Abandoning a baby piglet to die is horribly cruel–It happens on ALL types of farms!
This is a good example of those mistaken beliefs. Although, it is a more common concern in factory farms, there are selfish mean people everywhere.
I wish I could say the same about kind caring animal rescuers. They are much rarer, especially, those willing to save farm animals, and provide lifetime care.
Thank you, Animal Place.
What beautiful piglets! I LOVE them so much! God bless and protect Animal Place, all of the wonderful animals there and all of you who are devoted to caring for them. I too, have loved pigs since I was a little girl. Thank you for sharing this heartwarming outcome. May all of those angel animals live long, happy and healthy lives. It is so heartbreaking that there is so much unfair evil cruelty in this world toward innocent animals who aren’t able to defend themselves. Even “certain” middle eastern religions despise pigs and dogs believing that they are filthy and evil! Thank God for the thousands of animal advocates and rescuers! We can only hope that all evil abusers will ultimately receive their just punishments for their wicked acts against the poor innocent beings who have feelings too. Because of lenient laws, offenders keep repeating their heinous crimes. The best punishment for abusers would be “an eye for an eye” law to go into effect! It would then be mandatory punishment for evil abusers to receive the exact same things done back to them, period! It’s time the laws of punishment become more severe; we desperately need stronger animal abuse deterrents NOW! PLEASE help change the laws!! The lives of innocent animals can NOT afford “abuse tolerance”!!!!
Thank you very much to the employee that took the piglet hm from dying….Glad to here both piglets r doing great …. from a great animal lover
I really loved how you described the pigs. It touched my heart in gratitude.
You’re angels.
Thank you for this most important work.
Poor souls! Animals are the Lords most innocent, and beautiful creations of all. I believe that in the very beginning, before sin kicked in, things were very different, and truly a paradise for all. Now that Satan is in the mix, evildoers are everywhere, and there are only a handful of good people, like the rescuers of some piggies, whom I love, just like all animals. Precious angels for sure. Also quite intelligent.
I shed atear after seeing the photo of the kissing piglet I also love them and all animals
I pray for you to have a long and healthy life..
God did not put pigs on earth to eat. They have feelings like humans,
I’m only sorry I haven’t the means to help every one of the farms, sanctuaries, shelters etc that save and protect and enhance lives of animals, without whom, the world would be so much sadder than it already is.
They are beautiful! And you are beautiful people for all that you do. God bless you!
She is so beautiful and, thanks to your sanctuary, luckily alive!!
:):):)
Jamie
Thank you for your compassion! Keep on doing what you’re doing and helping save lives of innocent creatures!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for saving these sweet babies!! All animals deserve a full life of happiness and love.
Thank you for caring.
God bless you all over and over and over! I love that these beautiful animals will live without fear and have a good life forever. Sanctuaries like this are our only hope that there is still a lot of good left in this world. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
I’m so happy that he is in a safe and loving space with friend sto call his own<3
Lovely little piggies. So glad they were saved. They are indeed a lot like dogs in some ways and will sometimes hang with dogs.
It’s so good to see these two precious little piggies playing together. I’m so glad Alysoun and all the others rescued from Slaughter. 🙂
As a child, I lived a short time on a farm, my uncles and dad leased, years ago. I guess you could say, I was at that pre-school age or kindergarten age. In the summer and fall, I’d get on the tractor or trailer type equipment and go to the pasture with my uncles and dad. I watched as they picked up bails of hay, plant raise and cut tobacco, milk cows and bulls and pigs. I guess my first piglet was Frosty, a solid white, pink nose. We also had a dog. She had puppies. She caught Frosty in the basement of our house and killed him. My second pig, was a much larger, Porky, black with tan points like a German Shepherd dog. We had a screen in back porch, that is where Porky slept, on some hay, and bedding. In the summer, when you needed air conditioner, we had none, we opened our windows, doors and used fans. Porky had the freedom to come in the house. Beck then, my mom cooked on a wood stove and we heated our house with wood stoves, maybe two or three scattered through the house. But Porky was like dogs today. He was my pet pig. And with a bad winter and weather, my uncles and a dad did not renew the lease one year. If Porky wasn’t insight, Mom could take a pot and spoon, rattle the pan with the spoon and Porky would come running from wherever he was. And without renewing the lease, all of the live stock had to be sold to other farmers or go to the slaughter house. My uncles and dad, decided Porky had to go to slaughter, since he was a pet pig. After several attempts by my uncles and dad to get Porky to go into the truck. Mom had to do one of the hardest things in her life, by taking a pot and spoon and luring Porky into the truck. I recalls she and me crying. I also had a big black Angus Bull as a pet. He could be stubborn when my uncles and dad would try to separate him from the cows. We lived so far back in the hollow and bend, instead of mowing the grass around the house, we’d let the cattle out and eat it. And I often heard mom and them say, Bully, would not listen to anyone, but I could take a twig and lead him anywhere. After life on the farm, my parents pretty much became city people. But their roots and mine were and are country. And my uncles did buy a small farm after that. They planted corn, wheat, tobacco (a very large income for families back then) and even rented extra space to raise tobacco. Which was one of the main crops in Tennessee at the time. But they also had milk cows for a time, I can remember riding to the milk plant with my uncles as a small child and even when I got school age, most of my summers were spent in the country. I remember helping to stomp the tobacco beds after the weeds were burned off. Watching as my uncles and hired hands planted the small tobacco plants they had raised in small beds. At different times, I remember my uncles, having milk cows, beef cows and pigs. I’ve been told by my friends, it amazes them that I can recall such things today from my childhood. I can vision Frosty, Porky and Bully today, as they were when I was a small child, not even at school age.
Beautiful story. I needed that. Thanks for writing it up. I’ve never met a pig, but I’m sure I would like them. I certainly don’t eat them!!
Pigs seem like pretty emotional creatures. Maybe that’s why muslims and other religions don’t eat pigs?
I love the name 😉
You have no idea how hurtful I am about the way that you took the time to explain what happened to this portal of piglet and the way that humans and animals do not have to be treated poorly to become friendly and loving again you took your time you explain to other people and any child or any parent can show this to their child and talk with them about them and maybe even take them to see them many children do not see farm animals are wild animals and don’t fully understand though I’m not saying that they will clearly understand them just by seeing them they have to be told about them but seeing them makes a total difference even in a picture and then explaining how they were rescue God bless their little hearts and God bless yours for being so kind I love you program and I hope it continues for ever and grows and grows
I’m burning inside. will this horror ever ends? I don’t know….
I’m so glad there are people out there that can take in unwanted or
abused animal’s.
I know that the Baltimore Zoo takes of there animal’s, and it’s always nice to take the kid’s to see them, but it would be much nicer to see them run free. Not have kid’s or adult’s even riding on an elephant, or donkey’s. I’m sure they don’t appreciate that.
So thank you all for all you do to help these animal’s live happier, longer lives.
Great job.I’m so happy they were saved
Bless your heart. I cannot believe what people do to another species for greed, profit, and gluttony.
We have no right to enslave animals and torture and laughter them.
They have a right to their own life and to live out their days in peace.
I truly believe that mankind (and it is MEN who began and perpetuate this horrific bloodletting in their patriarchal society ruled by the values of might make right and cutting off your empathy to prove you a man) is doomed by how we behave toward animals.
As long as we continue to exploit, abuse and murder innocent members of another species, we will have hell on earth which is a planet riled by
Nuclear weapons
Horrific climate change
Violence and shooters
Bloodbaths everywhere
We need a change in consciousness and values or ‘man” kind will go extinct because as long as we are “mankind” we have no chance in hell of not destroying this planet
I don’t know honey. This world never be straight, prisoners work in charge of all of these angels… Just aliens… The only hope for this earth. Destroy the world. Maybe next life humans realize, animals are for extend the soul of the world, not just humalieting, kill their souls, eat their bodies without asking them, do they want to die for us, hunt them down, spill their blood, without no permission. Ahhh l wish I’d die sooner and don’t have to see this…
You have no idea how important people like you are. It is your kindness and “humanety” that help to restore any faith and hope in “human beings” who seem to be ever increasingly becoming sociopathic sick twisted sadistic machines. The kindness and sweetness of those like yourself help to keep all hope from fading. I love your little ones and all the creatures. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank for all you do for these animal’s,
When get my Land one day I will doing the same thing, helping farm animal’s, wild animal’s and domistic animal’s every animal will be welcomed.
Thanks gain for all your hard work, keep up the good work thank you and God bless.
And I am vegan, also my whole life, I never really cared for meat, only veggies, I was first vegetation, cause I didn’t want to see animal’s killed for food, and then later in life I realize about the dairy part it to so I became Vegan. I’d rather have the animal’s alive then to put them in my stumick I just wish everyone felt the same way as I do, and it’s healthier for humans as well, and the same with fur farms need to stop skinning alive animal’s for fur that is just torture and abuse for the animal’s. And the animal’s tortured every day skinned alive and boiled alive in those Asian countries as well, all us humans need to stop torturing and killing animal’s.
Great job an trailer thank you for sharing this nice story. Ive never owned a Pig however i no what great animals they are so 2 years ago oi decided to no long eat any type of Pork. I believe thete much smarter then Alot of Humans.. Its so great to hear something good about animals…
Wonderful stories. Wish animals would not be raised for slaughter. Human bodies were not made for such high consumption of meet , I think it is the reason for many illnesses. All animals are a gift from God to the earth and humans to live together in harmoy with each other, love, protect and respect. How sad it is that humans abuse and torture animals. Thanks
remember!… vegan burgers taste better, no clogged arteries (cardiac arrest, heart attack, heart bypass, stroke, ed, p.a.d), vegan by design. milk is only for baby cows (what next cat n dog milk), get soymilk. also, know somebody (family, ect) that just wont listen, tell em the above facts (other facts at, facebook.com/garyfair96).
Wow what a great story! I was raised in farmland and ate pork but I was at an auction at a shut down Campbells soup company to purchase equipment for our ice manufacturing hvac business. My partner and I were both cheapskates so we slept in the car until auction time and the pigs at the nearby slaughterhouse screamed all night. It seemed to me that they were terrorized and afraid to die. I was disturbed by that and never wanted to eat pork again because I believe pigs are intelligent creatures with feelings and it’s wrong to abuse them and murder them for meat. I wish beef substitutes for pork like bacon were more common since cows are far less aware. I hope more pigs have happy story like this one and humans learn to relate to them.
Thank you! For everything you do for every life you save. Those little pigs are adorable.
PS MorningStar has a great faux bacon!
Pigs ar very smart and very clean animals if given the chance to be. Im not a vegan and raise my pigs with the upmost respect and care ican give them. Always a bad day when that day comes and I go the extra mile to make sure it’s fast and right. To many animals go to these death camp slaughter houses absolutly terrified not killed but pretty much torchured and smelling the death. I dont buy any meat from a store its wrong. Weird we can use a pig heart for a human but were close relatives to monkeys. Have a heart like these people here because one day you might need one. Have repect for these very intelligent awesome animals. They look happy together great job.
I love the story, thank you for sharing,.
I adore this good news story….thank you!
Thank you for saving these precious pigs!! I would like to continue receiving info so I can out you on my list for future contributions.
Cheers Lina
This is so heartwarming and hopeful. Thank everyone who supports giving and loving whoever is in need.
I SEEM TO LOVE ALL ANIMALS – HAVEN’T MET ONE THAT I HAVEN’T LOVED!! I HAVE FARMERS IN MY FAMILY AND I LOVE THEM DEARLY, BUT AM VERY SAD TO SEE AND LEARN OF THEIR INDIFFERENCE TOWARDS ANIMALS. I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR ACCEPT THIS AT ALL!!
Thank you for helping them. I saw a piglet at a farm near my house in NJ and I asked if I could help volunteer to take care of the pigs, they said no, they don’t allow volunteers only farm workers. It’s a helpless feeling, wanting to rescue all farm animals, scoop them up, like someone did for Allyson!
Love you Kim and everyone for all you do for these beautiful animals!!!
It was kind of a blah, windy day until I read about Alyson (Alysoun?). In my world, even pigs deserve a happy ending. Bravo to your organization for caring about all animals!!! If possible, I would love to receive information about your work. Bless you!
It is so beautiful see good people do so much for this creatures, I love everyone god bless.
[…] Uma dessas histórias é a de Alysoun, uma porquinha que foi abandonada e deixada para morrer porque um criador de porcos de Napa, na Califórnia, decidiu que não valia a pena investir tempo e dinheiro para salvá-la. Afinal, nesse meio é comum pesar o lucro em detrimento da vida. […]
Unfortunately I see too much crime against these angels, that my lips are sealed and my chest is really empty of all the comments in the world! Sorry…
Thank you for intervening on behalf of these marvelous creatures! May they have long, healthy lives in their loving forever home. I hope more pigs and other farm animals are saved from slaughter. Meat is murder!
Thank you for making our world a better place.
