Farm Sanctuary came to the rescue, and just a few hours later she gave birth to her 17 piglets and started a life very different than her previous one.

This cow was found in terrible condition. She was incredibly skinny, unable to stand, and had patches of missing fur all over her body. It was obvious to the rescuer at Santuário Vale da Rainha that she needed some serious love and care. To transport her to the sanctuary, they had to roll the cow onto a tarp, even though she was in so much pain. Rescuers worked with her day and night, nursing her back to health until she seemed like a different cow – one who loved to cuddle.
