December 2007

Calls from Hawaii about a feral pig in need of sanctuary. Judy talks with the manager at the mill where the pig's food is made. He is concerned about grain prices and supply. The costs are higher than ever predicted with no end in sight. Calls come from people wanting piglets for christmas presents. We educate all re: why a pig or any animal is not a good present.

The month ends with pigs Judee & Tony completely recovered from pneumonia after being sick for over a month. Sadly the pneumonia has spread and 5 more pigs are being treated. Pigs Lizbeth and Ruby died. Cedar chips put on pig's walkways for winter wetness. Year-end inventory completed at pig's store Sidecar for Pigs Peace.
