A devastated Colorado farmer has made an emotional plea to her followers after cruel thieves stole her entire livestock right before Christmas.
The farmer, known on TikTok as ‘twocenttuesday’, broke down in tears as she revealed her four prized Berkshire female pigs along with 60 meat birds and 20 laying hens were stolen from her property just south of Pueblo, Colorado.
‘We’ve just been devastated,’ she sobbed in the TikTok video posted on Christmas Eve. ‘Our livestock and our livelihood has just been stolen.’
‘If anyone in the southern Colorado region, or surrounding areas could help me out, that would be super swell.’
She captioned the now-viral video: ‘TikTok do your thing. These poor babies were all stolen last night just south of Pueblo Colorado. Please help us find them! They are precious to us and don’t deserve whatever is happening to them. Thanks!’
The farmer posted a follow-up video where she shockingly admitted she’s found ‘peace’ with the tragedy due to the overwhelming community response.
In the touching video shared Wednesday, the TikToker compared her story with the Grinch trying to steal Christmas.
‘You know how the Grinch tried to steal Christmas from the Whos? Well, we had a real Grinch try to steal our Christmas,’ she said.
