Review for Flying Pig Animal Sanctuary At Hippie Chick N Farm Inc, Cairo, GA, USA
I LOVE THIS NONPROFIT
FPAS is a farmed animal sanctuary, meaning that the organization's mission is to spread awareness and empathy for farmed animals and to teach the community about cruelty-free, vegan options to traditional living. That being said, anyone needing a safe place to land is welcome at FPAS. Cats, dogs, birds and even an African tortoise have found refuge at FPAS alongside the "traditional" rescues of pigs, goats, chickens, peafowl, ducks, and more.
As a volunteer, I have witnessed the sanctuary's director, Skye, serve our community with integrity and an unwavering commitment to the animals in her care. I'll admit, she has saved animals that I thought "too far gone". If all people lived their values the way that Skye does, the world would be a better place.
FPAS always puts the animals first. If an animal doesn't want to socialize they are never forced to. Skye is quick to remind sanctuary visitors that "this is the animals home" and "we are not a petting zoo". This was very important to me when I was looking for a rescue to support.
The animals at FPAS (over 100 and counting), are met where their needs are: medical, social and behavioral. I have seen Skye put her own needs aside to make sure the animals needs are met. All animals who come to FPAS have a permanent home, as long as it is in their best interest. I.e. some dogs shouldn't live next to pigs and chickens ;) Skye is also always on call for other sanctuaries who need help transporting an animal or with rescue efforts.
Animal rescue is never ending. Skye and her team do an amazing job caring for the animals. I encourage anyone reading to get involved! Come visit, volunteer, donate, come join the FPAS family!
