Introducing Sir Bacon Bit! This handsome boy is neutered, current on routine vet care, and up to date on his shots. He is a housebroken and harness trained piggy who will use a litterbox, although he prefers to go outside to potty. He's fine with kids, as long as they don't go into his piggy bed area. He lives with a cat and doesn’t bother it, but he does avoids dogs in the neighborhood. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.)
His mom said: "He likes harness walks and laying outside in yard for several hours a day. Only toy he really likes is his bobble ball that I put some piggie food pellets in for him to push around. Not a huge fan of piggie pools. Loves to cuddle in bed with me. Uses a ramp to get into the guest bed and cars. I work from home so he hangs all day in my office with me."
Special Needs: Crystals in his bladder. Sir BB has had two surgeries at Penn Vet and requires Ammonium Chloride mixed in tablespoon of jelly every morning.
Transportation is available within 100 or so miles to the new home. He travels well.
