Yes they can have strokes but it is unlikely in a young pig.

She could be choking to death or have any multitude of other things wrong. You need to rush her RIGHT NOW to a vet!

Did you miss this part? I can't fathom why you're still sitting here posting instead of getting her to a vet. Especially since they are still open.

Yes, get the pig to a vet. If you don't, your pig could die of something treatable. Don't just give up.

Gizmo went to the vet yesterday and had lung infection but sadly she passed this morning with me with her. I held her as she took her last breath. :sad: Piggies shouldnt hide the illness so well.By the time i knew she was sick it was to late.:ashamed:

I'm so sorry to hear that. They hide their illnesses very well. I'm sure Chewy will be fine soon.

RIP little Gizmo
