I will have to look for that senior care treat, I am sure Jellybean would love it.
The boys aren't liking that the weather is changing lol, they are adapting to colder temps by eating like monsters and being lazy lol.

Until I had to guess Momos age for the vet, I hadn't thought about how old the pigs are. I got the girls right around the time my granddaughter was born, so 4 plus years ago. They were part of a huge seizure from a breeder in the next state, so no idea how old they were then I'm figuring about 5 years old for both girls. Morty was a surrender, so other than knowing whomever had him loved and socialize him, I know nothing about him. I've had him for a good 5 years, so he's probably over 6 years old. I'm definitely not ready to day goodbye to any of them, so I will look into the senior pellets and treats for them.

A little something for the betterment of the pig boys is always a good thing. I try to make sure they have everything they need, but it seems there is always something else to do for them lol

I guess it's good that products are constantly being upgraded. I haven't even considered senior food until now.

We had one piggy who lived to 9. I am still proud of her even though she is no longer with us.

Did not realise you could get senior pellets for piggies. That will come in handy if I convince si to let me have some pigs again! Xx

I'm shooting for the stars with my girls, I want to reach at least 15 with them all! Or maybe we can get the next world record. I realize it's very unlikely (and that age 8 is an accomplishment in itself), but I certainly can try, can't I? It made me really sad when the world record champ (Sweetie) passed away recently at age 17. I know he had an awesome life, though, and was very loved and cared for.

I am happy with whatever I get from my pigs, as long as they are happy and healthy. I hope for good long lives but I know sometimes that just isnt what we get. I love the boys to pieces and I can only hope for the best for them, and give them what they need to give them the best.

You are so right, Alfonzpig. I try to do the same, but can't help hoping they will live really long lives.
