SEPTEMBER'S TWO FOR ONE DEAL-Minerva!!

Meet Minerva

from CT rescue

The Critter Connection!

Minerva is a 6 year old female that was born with no eyes. She has been in the rescue since she was 3 weeks old as our mascot and is a sanctuary pig. Not having any sight hasn't slowed her down one bit. She rules the "herd" and is very perticular about who she will allow in her inner circle. She has had a chronic bladder infection and xrays today revealed that her bladder wall has become quite thick. Fortunately there are no bladder stones but she will be on a long course of antibiotics to see if we can't get this straightened out.

Our goal for Minerva is $50! Thanks so much for everyone who donated to Hawk already. Please feel no obligation to donate again :)

SEPTEMBER'S GUINEA PIG OF THE MONTH-Hawk!

Meet Hawk
from CT rescue
The Critter Connection!

Hawk is a 6 year old neutered male that came from the Catskill Game Farm rescue that we did back in October 2006. The horrors that the pigs went through at the farm are unspeakable.

When Hawk first arrived he was petrified of everything and would throw himself at the side of his cage if he heard a loud noise. It took me 6 months to get him to settle down enough that he wouldn't shake when I held him. Because of this it was decided that he would stay in the rescue as a sanctuary pig.

He has been happily living with our older senior females and keeps everyone in line. It is quite amusing to watch him "settle a dispute" between two of the females. He lays down between two pigs that are bickering and looks at each one.

If we reach our goal early ($250), I'll debut another special needs piggy from this rescue :)
