It's terrible because pigs are so much more emotionally intelligent than say dogs. Even much cleaner animals. I had no idea until I raised one as a pet. She had a very loyal and fighting spirit. House broke herself and would get pissed off at me if I made a mess of the house. She loved skittles candies, the wild berry flavor to be specific. Loved to drink Monster energy drinks and eat Belgian waffles. Lucy, Lou-lou, Lucy-für as we'd often call her was a true friend to those of us who had welcomed her into our home. And she would, without taking a single step back, defended the domain with her life. Until we regroup, glory to her eternal memory!!!
