Be A Responsible Pig Owner

A pig lives up to twenty years and is a big commitment that should not be taken lightly. All prospective new pig owners are responsible for the pig's welfare. It is the owner's responsibility to train and provide for the care and living arrangments for their pig. `If a problem occurs, work toward a solution and not abandonment. Many shelters euthanize after only three days and rescues are often at full capacity, and can't take another animal.

Pigs are highly intelligent and emotional creatures that from strong social bonds. It is traumatic for the pig to leave their home and their family. Pigs will miss and grieve, sometimes for months and even years. Pigs feel grief, sorrow, loss and exhibit behavior very similar to our own behavior. A grieving pig will look sad, refuse food and water, act lethartgic and not show an interest in things that pigs are normally interested in. Pigs even cry real tears.

This Gravity Falls comic strip (below), is a sad but accurate account of the pain and anguish experienced by both the owner and the pig, when a pig is rehomed or surrendered.
