He didnt have much of a reaction when I got home from a 7 day trip but I think he missed me 😊🙄

My son got married at the beach and this is the longest I’ve ever been away from my boy/soul pet/ son. He’s doing fine overall but not enjoying his time being lonely because our entire family is out of state. The sitter has kept him on a schedule but I’m sure he misses the cuddles, love, snacks etc. I know he’s like where the hell is my mom. The next time I go on vacation I’ve already let everyone know I won’t be traveling without my pet. I can’t explain our bond but he’s mine and I’m his. Period.

Looking super fly

These were super cute

He tried whole heartedly tho.

Wiggy got extremely sick on Friday out of nowhere. He was running a fever, wouldn’t eat or drink, wouldn’t get up, just laid for hours trembling. I had to go out of town Saturday so my adult son came over to check on him while I was gone and gave him pedialyte in a syringe and some infants Tylenol. By Sunday morning shit had got really bad and I knew it was a medical emergency. I started calling every vet within a 50 mile radius. I couldn’t find a single one that would see him on an emergency visit unless we were an “established client”. A few of them referred to the same local emergency clinic so I called them and they wouldn’t see him either. I finally found a vet about 20 miles away that would see him. He got an IV and three shots. Two were antibiotics and one was anti-inflammatory. He’s finally feeling better today. We almost lost him. If you own a pet pig make sure you have established vet care in the case of an emergency or they literally won’t see you. It sucks and I was angry, like he’s my pet just like someone with a dog or cat. I’m thankful we found one that would see him but it was a lesson learned moving forward.

Lesson learned don’t put your finger in wiggy’s mouth
