Everyone who has taken rescue piggies from me, you are stars.
I have decided after much deliberation that after this final lot of rescues goes I will be no longer taking in rescues (Unless under extreme circumstances). I have been doing rescue and rehoming for almost 4 years now and in that time, many pigs have passed through my door, young, old, pregnant and the dying.
Previously I have not had any problem with people adopting from me, and have received many generous donations from various forumers, without you I would have been lost. Recently though I have had quite a few people take pigs from me, with hardly any donation, One lady even took 5 pigs from me, and gave me nothing in return, not even a thank you. (I am not having a go at anyone, so please don't think I am)
With rising feed costs, and not getting any more income, I have had to make this very hard decision.
I may still have pigs for sale but these will be my own home bred pigs and will have set prices to reflect this.
I will still be very happy to advise people on general care of their pigs, and be able to put you in touch with other rescues/breeders that will have pigs available at various times in the year.
Once again I would like to thank all of those who adopted pigs from me, and gave them all fantastic homes til the end of their days
Peaches and the fuzzies
