Our sole purpose is to work together to help rescue operations and sanctuaries around the country. To be a part of this group you need only to love piggies of all sizes, shapes and color and have a desire to help their plight. The group meets at irregular times to work on crafts and different objects to further earn monies to help out those pigs in need. It is a joint effort with no big "I's" or little "u's".
Manytimes when pigs have bonded with their human parents and are then abandoned, they get stressed and go into a depression and die. We have personally known two who have died from stress related depression, as diagnosed by vets . Pokey lived about two weeks and refused all water and food until he died.
Pigs make wonderful pets for the right people, but not all people. So if you are thinking of buying or adopting a potbellied pig, please get all the information you can and realize that it is a commitment for 10 to 15 years. It is like having a two-year old child that never grows up in the house.
