Piggy Graceland

Mama Priscilla was brought in as a stray to the Flagler Humane Society in North Florida. She was wandering the streets alone with no food or water. She lived at the Humane Society for a couple of months before they noticed she was pregnant. When they arrived at work one morning they saw that she had delivered one piglet (who we later named Presley). However, once several hours had passed with no more piglets they became concerned. They tried to find a vet to come out but couldn’t. We are so grateful to them for the love and care they showed to this sweet girl. They called me for advice and said they were afraid they would have to put Priscilla down if things got worse. No one wanted her to suffer and eventually she would if the remaining babies didn’t come out. At this point, however Mama Priscilla was not showing any signs of distress, so I was determined to get her help. I knew her only fighting chance was medical care. I asked if they could get her to the University of Florida if I took over her care. They talked to their boss and agreed. It was a win win. Priscilla would have a chance, and she would have a forever home if she survived. And survive she did!

Sadly, there were two piglets that had to be retrieved from inside her and were stillborn, but the good news was that Mama Priscilla would recover and get to keep her baby. The vets told us Priscilla would not have survived had she not gotten care.Presley was able to nurse the first two days, but the vets noticed that Mama Priss didn’t seem to produce any milk after that. Baby Presley has been pan fed every 2-3 hours for the last two weeks. She is a fighter. There have been ups and downs but today she is thriving. They both are, and like all our pigs here we think they deserve the world. Can you help us give it to them?

The funds raised here will all go towards Piggy Graceland. This will include the house shown, fencing, gate, a shade sail, pool, and pigloo. This will be a large enough house/pen for us to save others. We appreciate your help so much and know these girls do as well! They have been through so much!

Thank you!
