DUMPING OR ABANDONING YOUR PIG IS NO BETTER! 25% of our residents were found after being dumped or abandoned, and 3 of those ended up pregnant so realistically over 50% of our population is here due to lack of human commitment. COMMIT TO YOUR PIGS 💕
This post may offend people, but honestly, I’m past the point of not saying anything‼️
The surrender requests keep coming in, and I feel like a broken record saying the same thing over and over:
KEEP. YOUR. COMMITMENT.
Even after the devastating videos of Sebastian losing his home, we somehow received MORE requests from people wanting to give up their animals. These are REAL statements we’ve received:
“My pig got uncontrollably big.” —> not a reason to rehome your pig.
Piglets grow into pigs. That’s how biology works. Overfeeding also leads to obesity.
“My pig keeps getting out.” —> not a reason to rehome your pig.
Proper fencing exists. Hog panels. T-posts. Space to roam. This is fixable.
“I just don’t have the time.” —> not a reason to rehome your pig.
Do you think we magically have more time? We care for 150 animals while working full-time jobs.
“We are moving.” —> not a reason to rehome your pig.
Your pig can move with you.
“We are moving into a neighborhood that doesn’t allow pigs.”
→ You already knew you had pigs when you chose where to move.
“We are emotionally, physically and financially exhausted caring for our 4 bunnies and 2 cats.”
→ How do you think WE feel caring for 150 animals while juggling jobs, bills, emergencies, heartbreak, and messages like this daily?
Animals are not temporary entertainment until life gets inconvenient.
They are living beings you made a commitment to.
Research before you get an animal.
Prepare before you buy.
And stop expecting rescues and sanctuaries to clean up every avoidable decision people make.
