 - You Caring Update -
(Section reserved for animals who need a little special care)

We need HELP to care for these Potbellied PIGS!!! There are currently TEN potbellied pigs at the Wilkes County Animal Shelter. Six of them are very large females, a couple are 200-300 pounds. One of them had 4 babies while there. Some of the others are probably pregnant.  The shelter has given us a tentative time line of 1 week to try to find places for these pigs. We have found one foster home for the mom and babies, so that leaves 5 big girls. They will have to be adopted into homes without male pigs. 

Our problem is that large pigs can be difficult to contain and need very strong or electric fencing  to make safe areas for them. We are also going to need large quantities of PIG FOOD.  

The Humane Society is asking for donations  in the form of  Cash or Gift Cards for Tractor Supply, so that we can obtain the materials we need to house these pigs. If you would like to DONATE, please see the links at the bottom of this page, or mail a check to the address listed below.  For Gift Card information, contact the local Tractor Supply Company store, located at 1834 WINKLER Street, in Wilkesboro NC.  (336-667-1025)
