Thank you to everyone who shared in our excitement about Orson and Welles' adoption after over a year of waiting.
Unfortunately, after transporting them across New York, it became clear that the new home wasn't a good fit. The stress of the trip and exposure to new pigs and a new environment caused them to turn on each other – something we had never experienced with them before. We are left to conclude that they remain unfixed, despite prior veterinary assessments, and we're working to address this for their own safety.
They're back home, safe but separated, and we are heartbroken and frustrated.
Though we hadn't planned for them to become permanent residents of our sanctuary, we are fully committed to their well-being for as long as they need us and are carefully considering the best long-term options for them.
Thank you for your continued concern and support as we help them heal. 🐽
