My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

These sweet ladies are from a large owner surrender to an eastern shore shelter. They were surrendered with (17) other piggies mixed in ages so of course they were on pregnancy watch. Thankfully neither of them were pregnant and they never have to worry about that kind of scare again.

They love zooming and burrowing in anything they can find- hay, fleece, and blankets. Foraging for pellets and herbs in their hay rather than using bowls is a favorite. And they enjoy sleeping in tunnels rather than beds because they feel more secure and safer that way.

They LOVE “gently reminding” you if you’re late with food by whistling and wheeking extremely loud and obnoxiously until fed! 🤣

JOY performs for food by standing on her hind legs and walking like a human hoping for extra yummies.

EVE was a polydactyl (had an extra toe on each back foot) and successfully had them removed last month.
