Say Hi to this cute little piggie. We call him Porky Baggins (he lives next to our Duck Hobbit Hole!). Porky is very smart and knows how to sit for treats!
Our Mission, Our Goals
Here at Mociso Farms Sanctuary we provide homes for animals who are in need. Many senior farm animals need a place to retire when their work on a farm is done. Many well-intentioned owners can no longer provide the best care for the livestock they have. Unfortunately, some farm animals are abused, neglected, and abandoned. Many come to us with special needs.
Here at Mociso Farms Livestock Sanctuary & Rescue, we strive to provide for these beautiful, farmed animals by offering appropriate nutrition, free-range pasture, shelter, love, and compassion.
We are not a petting zoo.
Our rescues arrive here scared and unsure. Many have been tramatized. We do not stress them further by having a rotation of strange faces in front of them. We are also highly aware of transmittable diseases. These sweet rescues may have health issues that can be further compromised by visitors. Avian flu, now passing to humans from livestock, is a major threat.
Thank you for prioritizing their health and safety.

*** Our Farm Sanctuary is named after our first 3 rescues? ***
Mojito (aka MoeMoe) was a pug terrier mix rescued from a Florida shelter. Moe Moe has since left us for Doggie Heaven and took a good chunk of our hearts with him.
CiCi is pictured above. A feisty little senior Chihuahua mix that took on FIVE coyotes and survived!
Sofie, an American Eskimo, was rescued from a very abusive situation. Ten years later, her damaged hips have healed, and she is the biggest snuggle bunny ever! EDIT: Sadly, our sweet Sofie left this earth April 2024
