Kalamazoo Animal Shelter Is Looking For A Forever Home For Margaret The Pot Belly Pig

I have no idea how this little lady got lost, or how she was found, but at least she was found and being cared for by the Kalamazoo Animal Shelter. Mlive.com is reporting that the team over their is hoping to find 'Margaret' a place to call home forever.

If you are considering adopting this sweet pot belly pig, here are some things you need to know. According to petmd.com...

• Pot bellied pigs are very smart.
• Training a pot bellied pig is similar to training a puppy.
• Pot bellied pigs are some of the most social creatures.
• Pot bellied pigs do not like hugs or cuddles. Because they are so big at birth their mother is unable to carry them, therefore they don't enjoy hugs.

• They need their shots just like any other pet.
