Thanks for this little insight into owning a micro-pig. I haven't heard my wife say she wants one yet, but I wouldn't put it past her. She actually wants to get a gland-removed skunk, especially since having to put down our 20-year-old cat that we've had for 13 years. I told her just yesterday that, if she really wants one, we'll get one when we have some extra money available.
Ive heard of people having skunks as pets and said they were a joy to have. And i'm sorry to hear about your cat. Having a pet in your life that long is very difficult when they pass on.
