Cuddly sow, Los Angeles area
permalink
Marilyn is 3 years old and was dumped at the shelter with her two sisters, both of whom were adopted. I've been fostering her for the past several weeks, and she is now available for adoption, having completed her quarantine here:





She loves to be cuddled:



Marilyn is one of the cuddliest sows I have come across. She is a dominant pig and would do best with a very young or nondominant sow.

She's absolutely adorable, but between having 4 boys by the first week in January and living in VA, I'm probably not the best mommy for her.

Oh, if it was still just Dude I'd get him neutered and they'd probably get along; Dude is just sooo mellow, and I've never had a sow before . . . But Gyfie has become quite friendly after his rescue, and was instantly Dude's buddy, so I guess I can't complain! I think I reconize you from Guinea Lynx; are you Mum?

Yes I am

Marilyn is still waiting for a wonderful forever home :-)

She's settled down with my sows now. I think she was intimidated by being unceremoniously dumped in with three other girls! She gets on well with Polly, who is a nondominant teenager (about 5 months old), so they can be placed as a pair if someone would like a ready made family!

Someone better adopt that little sweetie before I am forced to get on a place to California. I was at the sign shop the other day, and they had pink coroplast. Combine that with a couple of Slap's cage blankets, some silver grids, and we'd be all set. And don't even get me started on the pink patent leather dog carrier I found on eBay that she would have for short road trips.

Someone please give this little lovebug a furever home! I seriously can't afford plane tickets right now.

HEHEHE....He Mummy...I just realized Marilyn is one of the pigs OCCH is listing. I was just looking around Craig's list and saw her picture with our contact info. Just goes to show you that there are so many homeless pigs in So Cal we can't keep track of them all.

Yes, but she is now paired with a baby, with whom she gets along really well. The baby was pulled from the shelter, unweaned, and was handfed. She is now about 4 weeks old. So the two are available as a pair. You can see more about them on my website, and also fill in an application if you're interested!

She's still here, and she loves the baby she's paired with. She was extremely dominant with my two sows, and with another younger sow and neutered boar, though. She's much better behaved with the baby!

Sorry but I think those of us who would seriously take her live too far. Good luck with getting her adopted.

She can stay here as long as she needs to :-) We love her and her baby friend.

It will have to be a very special home for us to let her go
