| Re: Ethical?
I think it would depend on the pig and the situation. Like all animals, they can't speak and as your pet, you know them better than anyone and have to make decisions for their care based on what you know about the animal's personality and preferences.
Sometimes it can be cruel to prolong a pet's suffering and as hard as it always is to let them go, we are never more obliged to speak for them and make hard decisions about their dignity and their quality of life than when they are facing a critical health issue or at the end of their lives. |
