Hello, my name is Angeles--Angel
for short. I live in a very busy household with my adoptive mommy, 2 human sisters and a brother-in-law,
and my animal family: two cat nephews and a dog nephew, 2 dog nieces, a bunny nephew, and a hermit crab nephew. I also have a horse brother, but he doesn't live here with us; he has to stay at a farm. Mommy adopted me in February
of 2003, when I was only 5 weeks old. I was so frightened, being
taken away from my piggy mama and siblings, and put in a cage all by myself!
:-( When my new mommy and sister found me, I crawled in sister's
lap and snuggled for an hour--and we pigs aren't generally the snuggling
type, and usually don't like to be held! I slept in sister's lap
all the way home.
It's hard to believe I was ever
such a tiny, timid baby! With lots of love and care from Mommy and
my human sisters, I settled into the household and learned to play nicely
(well, usually nicely!) with my animal family. I stay mostly
indoors, but the back yard is fenced, so I'm allowed outside to root and
graze when the weather is nice. I think I have it pretty good here!
Mommy says many people don't
have pigs in their families, so I thought I would share a little bit about
my life, my likes and dislikes, etc., so you would get to know a bit more
about potbellied pigs!
Food!! (This is very important to us pigs!)
