We receive many requests for help regarding animals in need every day. For example We also received a call for help from a caller who reported six pot-bellied pigs that were to be slaughtered. The owner couple had separated and the house was now to be sold. The date for the slaughter of the pot-bellied pigs had already been set. However, the animal lover did not want this to happen and took the pigs in for the time being. However, it is almost impossible to sell adult pot-bellied pigs, as they have long since lost their "cute factor". She herself was also unable to keep the animals due to lack of space and was desperate. So the animal lover turned to us and asked us to take in the six pigs. She sent us a driver who brought us the frightened and neglected animals. Our task now was and is to gain the pigs' trust, care for them and give them a good and species-appropriate life.
