Bless her heart, such a sweet little soul, it makes me so made that people are like that to animals 8... You did the right thing taking her in, I am preying for her speed recovery xx
 
Wow she is so cute, and her name suits her so well. I try not to look in any pet shops..") I just dont understand them, thank God you found her no telling what would have happened to her...xx
 
Poor little soul, really pleased you rescued her, thank goodness for people like you. I would have done the same, but its absolutely not right that some people obviously hve no idea about animals, makes me so sad and cross.
 
She is gorgeous and I hope she has a great life with you....
 
She is adorable and thank god you were there to help her, I couldnt bring myself to watch the video, will keep checking the thread to see how shes getting on.
 
What a sweetie Nutmeg is...she has found her Fairy Pigmother thankfully xoxo
Well done for taking her in, I would have done exactly the same in your shoes :))
Sending lots of healing vibes and gentle cuddles to Nutmeg from us all here :laluot_29:

I don't think you'll find many on here that would disagree with what you did - we would have done the exact same thing.

I really, really, really hope something is done about the petshop as there really aren't enough people out there, like you and the other people on this forum who actually care about the animal's welfare. They aren't just pets, they are members of our family and I applaud you for not only saving her but for treating her as well. She is very lucky to have you.

I am so glad the pet shops here are only pet shops in as much as they sell food, bedding and accessories - no actual pets. I still go in to P@H whenever I'm in Truro just to see the pigs and torture myself at they way they are kept, I just can't stop myself even though I know I'm just going to be upset at how they're kept and angry with the staff when I come out.

She is a very beautiful pig and I hope she is better soon. x>> from me, OH and the 14 squeakers
 
A quick update to let you know. Shes had a complete exam and xray today, hardly managed to sit still on the xray plate. She has no fractures or injuries present and we're assume she is literally just 'special' and had neurological issues either from birth or a brain injury of some sort.

Oh poor little thing. Does she need pain relief all her life? Will she be able to live with a friend? What will happen now?
 
Not sure whats going to happen, going to trial her on some pain relief and see if it makes a difference. I will try and see what she is like with a gentle sow to see how she takes to a friend and then decide from there.

Awww, well at least you know the truth now and you can try to give her a happy little life. What a sweetheart she is :)) I hope finding her a friend works :))
 
Just caught up with this, well done for taking her on, i very much doubt that there is a single member on this forum who would have left that poor girl in that condition, we'd all of taken her home, lets face it the pet shop would have just left her!

Please keep us posted on her progress. xx
 
Only just seen this thread.
Nutmeg is simply adorable and really deserves a very special mummy like you.
Sending lots of angel kisses and loving thoughts to her for a pain free, happy life. x>> x
 
What a darling! She's so lucky you rescued her, goodness knows what might have happened to her otherwise! She seems a happy little thing despite everything!
 
Just a few pictures if you wanted to see some more. Met a few of my sows today, next step to see how mobile she is etc.

Shes currently hopping around and playing with her loo roll and munching hay. :)

She's completely gorgeous. x) Very pleased to hear that she has no injuries.

I have a special girl here too. Molly has an unusual body shape and some wasn't expected to make it this far. She's a little smaller than my other pigs and makes odd breathing noises probably due to narrow tubes but otherwise is a happy girl. Hope you find a friend for Nutmeg. x

Awww just seen this thread. Nutmeg is simply adorable and it's so nice to know that someone is taking the time to care for her properly.

Lets hope she can live a relatively normal life and doesn't have too many problems.

Nutmeg is beautiful. The picture of her with her little foot in the air just tore at my heartstrings. Thank you for taking her in a caring for her. How is the bonding going? Is she ok with other piggys?
