I live in the US and we have a store called Petco here and I occasionally go there when i’m having an emergency such as being low on hay waiting for my shipment. Today I went in to grab a bag of hay for my girls and they had 4 full sized female pigs in a tiny cage and I wanted to take them home so badly I almost started crying in the store cus of how sad it made me that they were all in this tiny tiny enclosure. I don’t know how to deal with not being able to take them home, i’m worried they’re gonna fall into the wrong hands but I already have 5 guinea pigs I don’t think I can take in 4 more. I just needed somewhere to express how I was feeling I can take this down if it isn’t allowed!
 
Just know that you do a great job with your own piggies, and take comfort in that.

You can't change the lives of all piggies, but for your piggies you can provide the best lives.

Unfortunately, as loving and dedicated pet owners, we have to endure the heartbreak of knowing not all animals receive this level of love and care.

You could put photos on Facebook sometimes here people do in case someone else can rescue them.

Sadly for each piggy we save, it is soon replaced by another and we can’t save them all.

You are obviously a very caring and dedicated owner so please take heart in the fact that your 5 piggies are well loved and living their best life
