Pepper was found alone and vulnerable, searching for food. In an area known for wild dogs and foxes, Pepper escaped an unimaginable fate.
Most farm animals outlive the life expectancy of many ‘domestic’ pets. Many breeds of farm animals can live beyond 20 years, which represents a long-term commitment for their owners to provide appropriate feed, meet their ongoing healthcare needs over the years and remain on a suitable property.
However, this long-term commitment is sometimes overlooked by owners of farm animals when committing to give them a home. In such cases, farm animals may end up in situations where they need to be surrendered, and if this fails, these animals are often abandoned, euthanised or end up in the wrong hands, facing a sad fate.
Farm animals are frequently perceived as less deserving of lifetime commitment compared to domestic animals, and as a result, euthanasia as a solution isn’t frowned upon as much. This attitude contributes to the challenges faced by farm animals when they are no longer wanted or cannot be cared for properly.
Pepper was found wandering around, left to fend for herself in the wild, putting her at great risk. Before her rescue, she was vulnerable to predators such as wild dogs and foxes that are known to the region. She is truly lucky to have escaped such a dire fate.
Calls were made to the local community for her owner to claim her, but there was no response. It’s likely that Pepper was unfortunately abandoned, for what reason, we’ll never know.
Thanks to the generosity of donors, Pepper was rescued and taken to one of our loving foster homes. After some love and care, Pepper is now ready to find a home as a loved companion, not a commodity.
