We went down to Clay County this weekend. And when we got there, his Papaw presented us with a four week old pot-belly pig. A lady at his work brought it in asking if anyone wanted it for free. The reason she was getting rid of it was that it had been attacked by a dog and had a giant cyst on it's side.
This afternoon, we took it to the vet to have the cyst cleaned out. Someone is going to have to wash it's wound twice a day and give it medicine. It's still not clear who is going to get stuck caring for the animal. It's life expectancy is 12 to 15 years.... quite a commitment. And, I'm not sure that it's even legal for us to have a pig in the city. Sky likes it... maybe he can visit the pig at his Papaw's house?
Sabastian is allergic to pork; I have test paperwork to prove it. Hopefully, in the end, the pig will find the right home...
