Pam's admiration for animals developed at an early age when she helped rescue, rehabilitate and rehome cats and dogs.
Pam always dreamt of having a horse. She started by joining a local pony club, then soon got a horse and became a successful equestrian competing around Australia. Pam's relationship with horses led her to have a greater understanding of large animal behaviour.
Pam hung up her boots to champion the cause of animals. She became involved in campaigns calling for an end to animal testing, vivisection and fur. Pam went vegan over thirty years ago, after reading Peter Singer's book Animal Liberation.
Pam volunteered with Animals Australia on the Save Babe Campaign and needed a pig for a photoshoot. She organised a deal with a local pig farmer and drove home one day with Edgar Alan Pig on the front seat. Pam watched Edgar's life transform with kindness and founded Edgar's Mission.
Edgar's Mission provides sanctuary to over 450 farm animals and has grown into an advocacy organisation, with animals being their own ambassadors.
In this episode, Pam talks about the power of kindness and shares beautiful stories of the animals who find sanctuary at Edgar's Mission.
