Pearl

Lifespan: 15 – 20 years​

Pearl was the runt of the litter and a very sick piglet. Her owner didn’t want her and listed her on Craigslist for free. We were contacted by someone who was very concerned about where she would end up. We happily took her in, but we weren’t really sure she would even survive. She was dehydrated and lethargic, had a bacterial skin infection, severe diarrhea, back leg weakness, and was very thin. She required immediate veterinary care and needed to be bottle-fed. We knew we had to give her a fighting chance. After proper vet care and some TLC, Pearl is growing so fast and thriving at the sanctuary.
