12/9/22 Still available! Hermione (Moot Moot) and Bacon Bits (Bitsy) are sweet piggies that will sit for treats and love long rubs and scratches. They are housebroken and do well with kids of all ages. They live with both large & small dogs and get along with them all. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) They know a few tricks (sit, stay, outside) & come when called.
Both are unique in their own ways. Bitsy is more of a mellow go-with-the-flow type piggy, while their mom describes Hermione as a nosy old lady who wants to see and know everything going on. They are divas with hilarious personalities that show they both think they are queens. They love to be where mom is. If you are in the kitchen, they will come sit and bark or oink in the hopes of getting some veggies or plain popcorn (one of their favorites!). They will follow you anywhere if you have treats. They have 2 pools outside: one for fresh water and to clean there own noses before coming in, and another to roll around in and sunbathe in. And they love mud. Their typical morning is to wake up between 6 and 7, get breakfast, go outside and usually stay out till about noon. Then they come in for a good 2 hour nap before heading back outside for some more yard time.
The family is not able to provide transportation to the new home.
These girls are not altered so arrangements must be made to spay prior to adoption. Intact pigs do not make the best companion animals. Spaying prevents unwanted litters, curbs behavior problems, and prevents uterine tumors. Altering piggies when they're young is safer and usually less expensive than waiting until it becomes a problem or a medical emergency.
If you are interested in adopting, please complete the application and mention the name, city, and state of the pig(s) you're interested in: https://www.pigplacementnetwork.org/online-adoption-application/
Qualified homes must 1) be in a zone friendly community, 2) locate a vet that will care for pet pigs, 3) own their home.
