hay /an/. This is my pot bellied pig. He's 18 years old. Or 19 maybe. We thought he was going to die about 3 years ago, until we shot his woman pig and he abruptly improved. We're not sure if this is because she was an abusive wife, or just because he knew he had to get his shit together or be next.

What with winter, and his fat arthritic pig ass not getting any exercise, he's not looking great again. He hasn't seen the vet in over a decade, when the tossers took his balls and tusks away because he was running small children down. He's got a daily diet of Mazuri Elder Mini-Pig food, old bread, and then whatever else happens to be lying around, except pork...we feed that to the parrot.

Does /an/ have recommendations to make this fat bastard live longer?

Oh, wrong thread.
Sit on it.

Actually his name is Barney. And sitting on him won't do anything but make him thrash, try to arch his stubby neck, and generally try to bite your ankles.

how about you try taking him to the fucking vet since there's a chance something is wrong with him other than old age.

Well, the nearest vet that treats pot bellied pigs is...93.7 miles away. Did you know pigs get carsick?

Every year he goes through the same cycle because he's arthritic and fat. It's just that this year it's worse. If he's got piggy plague, then he's kinda fucked whether a vet tells us about it or not.

A "recommendation to make this fat bastard live longer" would include soothing massages with IcyHot, warm grape juice, or a Q-tip dipped in warm water. Something I wouldn't normally do, that didn't include driving for four hours in the snow, spending however many hundred dollars it costs to have some nutjob check a pig's prostate, and -then- finding out what I should do for the flabby beast.

WE have a female pig with arthritis, how long do they live, anyway?

Ah fuck, you had me at hello. Can I be your pet? I do a sweet pig impression and I don't mind being fed pork.

I think the average lifespan is 15-20 years.

How clever are pigs?

If I were to keep an animal, I'd probably go with a raven. They're as intelligent as dogs, but aren't groveling beggars.

So, why'd you murder the female pig?
