VegasPigPets VegasPigPets is a breed-specific 501(c)(3) non-profit specializing in adoption and education as to t They are NOT the pet for everyone! Wouldn't you be too?

We strongly advise owners and potential owners to do their research before getting a potbelly pig. They are a wonderful, intelligent pet, but their needs and feed and even vet care are very specialized! Those "teacup, micro, pixie, pocket" whatever you want to call them pigs, are just starved potbelly pigs! NO pig should be taken from mama before 8 weeks old just to have their food intake controll

ed as "teacup breeders" do! If you want a pet pig, get a healthy pet pig! There is NO healthy teacup pig! If enough research is done, you will find that they will die around 5 or 6 years old due to their organs outgrowing their stunted body structure. And also, don't think of "abandoning" your pig because it got too big, the major reason we get those calls! Starved pigs are also very aggressive! If you believe the breeder's lie, live with the lie and fulfill your commitment to that pig!

Happy 8th Birthday to the only set of unexpected piglets I'm so proud to have raised!

Since the coconut wireless is working overtime, I'm going to post this now. I truly appreciate everyone's kind words but messages like "what happened or how did this happen" is just not appropriate! Cancer sucks! Cancer is just cancer! Yes I have probably a very terminal cancer and am still trying to see what my options are if any but I would appreciate it if you not text or message me on how this happened or what kind of smoothie to make because it saved my life! No one is promised tomorrow, we could be hit by a bus tomorrow! I was blessed with a little bit of time.... time to plan, time to research, time to spend with loved ones and my beloved animals... and mostly time to make sure my animals are taken care of (so grateful for Janice/Jenna and Jill B... my amazing piggy support friends!) Just give your loved ones all your love today in case that's the memory they will take with them tomorrow. Thank you for respecting my privacy.

Thank you to my amazing friends for taking in my two most loved kunes at the last minute so Dave had just the old ones to feed, a huge help to him! Day 4 in the hospital, my body failing but kudos to Spring Valley Hospital for their wonderful care. At least I'm still alive but updates to follow when they have results.

We are finally getting rain (none here since last July) but we need it! More signs that my rescue has come full circle... first Pork Chop had papers, my very last rescue Ducky has papers! Pork Chop hated rain, today I found out Ducky hates rain, too! Bowled me over as soon as she felt one drop! Guess it's good we don't get much!

I was honored to be invited to the Celebration of Life and military honors ceremony for my friend and fellow rescuer, Andrew Billings, fka ZoomPigsHome. It was quite a drive, big rains and winds in Cali, but so worth it to see his family life, what we almost never see in fellow rescuers. Rest in Love and eternal appreciation Andrew for all you did and always supporting VegasPigPets!

Heading into Cali with the rain and wind!

*Hoof Trims* are no more! No pig flippers and I won't pull legs. One hurt was one too many for me. I'll be heading to Cali this weekend but you will all get emails next weekend. Unfortunately without the trim funds coming in, I'm also going to wind down the rescue within a year. Thank you all for your support these 16+ years!

Now this would be fun! Happy February, Lunar New Year and welcome Springtime temperatures!

Now this would be fun! Happy February, Lunar New Year and welcome Springtime temperatures!

The first Saturday in February is National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. (I strongly suggest using all of the other Saturdays of the year as practice sessions.)
