Momo was rescued from her predicament by animal lovers. Locked up in the kitchen by her owners, she was supposed to live out her life there. These people were obviously unaware that pigs can live up to 15 years. The animal lovers took Momo home with them, but were unable to look after the pot-bellied pig in the long term. They turned to us for help and Momo was allowed to become an Aiderbichler. One fine April day, we couldn't believe our eyes. There were three little piglets with Momo. The culprit was quickly identified: Boar Dennis, who moved to Gut Aiderbichl Iffeldorf in December 2019. Apparently he had hatching testicles, which meant that nobody noticed that he was still fertile when he was admitted. And Dennis certainly can't deny his resemblance to his children. But a small shadow was cast over the young family's happiness. Little Hope, Leo and Leonie's sister, was too weak and despite all our efforts, she passed peacefully over the Rainbow Bridge. We lost the battle for her young life. This is also part of our work. We are responsible for life and always encounter death in the process. We do our utmost to offer our rescued animals a life in dignity and always experience the moment when we have to say goodbye. We wish Leo and Leonie, as well as Momo, a long and beautiful life and will do everything necessary to ensure that they want for nothing.
