Intelligent, friendly, loving -- pigs are amazing!

Jellybean's eyes reveal both his wisdom and his fun-loving nature. When we arrive at his "Pig Pen" with treats or affection, he sprints over to us in a dash.

He is well socialized with goats, sheep, chickens, and other pot belly pigs, including Francesca, who is pictured below him here.

Jellybean & Francesca are two of the seven pot belly pigs at Nevada SPCA, five of whom are spayed/neutered and ready for adoption. All seven are the result of various families buying them at swap meets or pet stores as babies, unprepared for their brilliance and large adult sizes.

Despite being wonderful, social animals, pigs are the hardest species for us to adopt (of the 15-20 domesticated species we typically rescue in the community). This is in part due to restrictions with some home owners' associations and some municipalities which disallow them living in residential areas.

If you have the space and ability to welcome into your family an animal with the intelligence of a dolphin (nearly) and loving capacities of dogs & cats, please research pot belly pig care and come see us to meet Jellybean, Francesca, and the other rescued pigs.
