If you’re an animal lover, thinking of adopting a piglet, rest assured they can make good indoor pets.
Treat them with love and respect, and keep some piggy facts in mind!
In terms of HOUSING, they require little, but would feel better in their own room or corner with lots of cushions and/ or blankets, as they like to nest. They would, however, need to be taken out frequently or have access to a yard, where they can run free and play. They can live outdoors too and would love a mud bath. When it’s hot, don’t forget to provide them with shade and water, as they sweat and can overheat easily, just like us.
Pigs are intelligent and can be TOILET trained like dogs. So, do take the time to teach them.
It’s a well-known fact that pigs can eat anything. However, it’s much better for their health to eat vegan FOOD, not containing any animal products at all. This is because they are more sensitive to bacteria in meat and dairy than humans. The ultimate pig diet should consist of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as lots of grains.
Piglets love attention and HUMAN COMPANY, so do give them your time and care whenever you can❣️
