Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 48 – Iggy Oink has never been to Australia – BUT – he is pretty sure that if he ever went there that he would make it his sole mission to find Lyn White of Animals Australia. Iggy sort of has a crush on her – but that’s a whole other story and is bound to remain “unrequited” love because – there is the whole species thing. Anyway …

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 47 – Iggy Oink is asking you think about how much pigs feel. They feel happy – safe – contented – afraid – sad and depressed. They have a sense of fun and adventure. They love to play and to sense the sunshine on their bodies. Because they are smart – they are secure when they are around their families and confused when they are separated.

George And Yame Now

George And Yame Now – Rescued last spring from a life of cub petting in Spain through CACH and CJ and Luis Munoz – these two cubs were under weight – sick and in deplorable condition. Nursed back to health during the summer and then transferred to Kevin Richardson’s lion sanctuary in South Africa – just look at them now!

Night Will Fall – Dawn Will Break

Night Will Fall – Dawn Will Break

Night Will Fall – Dawn Will Break – there are so many unknowns in life that it is very satisfying and reassuring to remember that this constant is part of our daily routine. When we awaken in the morning we have 24 hours ahead of us. Some of this time will be devoted to work – leisure – meals – travel – family responsibilities and sleeping. What will you do with the 2 or 3 hours that belong to you?

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 46 – Iggy Oink is asking you think about the fact that laws are needed all over the world to protect animals. In many places animals are considered mere “property”. You can therefore own an animal as you would a table or chair. Because of this most legal systems have a very difficult time protecting living creatures from cruelty and abuse. This needs to change. Habits, customs, traditions and profit margins are NO excuse for the blatant cruelty, torture and exploitation that we see in every country!

Pig Tales by Iggy Oink – 45 – Iggy Oink is asking you to just start to think about not eating meat anymore. If enough peoples changed their ways then the cruel factory farms and the sad, ugly slaughterhouses would close and the world would be a much better place for everyone.  There is so much unnecessary suffering and cruelty in the meat industry – not just for pigs – but for cows – calves – horses – sheep – lambs – goats and birds. It is all about greed and profit.

A Meddling Busy Body – On January 18, 2015 – late evening – I saw a photograph of the recent massacre of Nigerian villagers by radical extremists. It has been said that over 2000 innocent people were slaughtered in an orgy of rage and hatred. Apparently 80 to 100 more men – women and children were also kidnapped in the following days. The extremists have promised more death and destruction.
