Meet Flo and Clementine

ByJon

Meet Flo and Clementine, rescued in the nick of time.We took a call about these beautiful ladies from our friends at Pigs in the Wood, they needed a home asap or they were off to be slaughtered.YHA a Castleton cared for them but no longer wanted them and they were no surplus to requirements. thankfully Pigs in the Wood heard about their plight and managed to secure their lives.They now have a new home with us and new names. They are now looking for a lifelong home, as are 14 pigs in our care, with calls to take on more every week.
