9/20/23 update: The kids named this adorable piggy Jenny. It's been determined she's a girl, and she is still waiting on a family that can give her tons of love and attention. She lives in the front yard and is blind. She has been dewormed.

This pig showed up at the house a few weeks ago. The family has been feeding it for about 2 weeks and it has taken up residence under the porch. It seems fine around kids and dogs. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) Because it is a stray, it's history, age, sex, and alter status are unknown. She seems nice enough, and was definitely well fed - so much in fact, that it may have impaired vision (fat blind) due to the excess weight. A diet will be needed to get this guy/gal back down to a nice, healthy weight.

It is assumed this pig is not altered so arrangements must be made to spay unless your vet finds it's already been done. Intact pigs do not make the best companion animals. Spaying prevents unwanted litters, curbs behavior problems, and prevents uterine tumors. A diet may be required before the alter can be done - this will need to be discussed with your vet.
