We first began as a sanctuary and rescue in June 2016 after taking in Cuddles - see her story here. Merrypigs is run from 'the pig room' which is attached to the side of our house! We use all fleece bedding and/or VetBed bedding. Our first piggies arrived in that first month - Medusa and Valentina! Since then we have re-homed over 170 piggies, all to fabulous new homes. We take great care in getting to know each piggy so we can eventually find them the perfect new home. Although, some of them have ended up staying a bit longer than anticipated (aka forever)! We run home-checks before adopting out and always have an adoption contract ready, as well as a copy of our care guide for all new adopters. We are based near Stafford UK, and I am a 3rd year student veterinary nurse.
