Pig
Luna arrived at three days old when severe mastitis prevented her mother from caring for the litter, and she was later found to be blind from underdeveloped eyes. A consistent, specially arranged piggy space gives this loving little diva the confidence to explore, splash in her pool, roll in mud, and fill each day with dramatic snorts.

Luna’s Journey to Butterfly Valley
Luna is one of the most beloved special needs residents at Butterfly Valley Rescue & Sanctuary. Rescued at just three days old after her mother developed severe mastitis and could no longer care for her litter, Luna quickly became part of the sanctuary family. As she grew, it became clear that Luna was blind — but she has never let that stop her from living life fully and fearlessly.

Born with underdeveloped eyes and is blind.
Bio
Care That Changes
Luna received intensive newborn support when she first arrived. Today, she lives in a consistent, specially arranged environment with sensory adaptations and supportive monitoring that help her navigate safely and enjoy life as a pig.
Different is Beautiful
Because we believe she is “different, not less,” Luna has a specially designed private piggy space that helps her safely navigate the world around her while still giving her the freedom to enjoy life as a pig should. Luna is a beautiful reminder that disabilities do not define worth — and that every animal deserves the chance to thrive.
