Well… despite our best efforts and completely separate housing/pens, it looks like farm life had other plans 🥴🐷

Miss Alice- one of our personal Kunekune gilts- is expecting piglets soon 🐽 When you’ve got kids helping with chores and gates constantly being opened and closed, accidents happen. Especially when you have a boar that’s apparently always plotting his next escape, so you can never fully let your guard down 🫣😵‍💫

She’s currently VERY unhappy being separated from her herd in her farrowing pen and would like everyone to know she strongly disagrees with this entire situation 🫠🐷

Not exactly the plan, but here we are preparing for piglet chaos in the near future. Farm life definitely keeps us humble 🐽✨

Kitten season also means kitten illness season 🤒🐾

One of the biggest threats young kittens face is panleukopenia (“panluek”) a highly contagious and often deadly virus that attacks a kitten’s immune system and spreads incredibly fast in rescue settings. Kittens are especially vulnerable at a very young age, often before the traditional vaccination window.

New this year, one thing we’ve prioritized is making sure we have funding set aside for early distemper vaccinations to help protect our kittens sooner. Thanks to studies out of UW Madison, rescues and shelters are learning that kittens can safely receive distemper vaccines earlier than the old 8 week recommendation in high-risk environments to help combat panluek before it’s too late.

Giving vaccines in rescue adds up quickly at $400 for 50 doses, but it’s been absolutely worth it and we’ve already seen healthier kittens so far this year 🤍🐾

Prevention truly saves lives 🤍🐾

** We also see a TON of URI gunk this time of year- like these little ones pictured 🤧**
