Could you give these two young piglets a home in time for a merry 'Pigmas'?

The Scottish SPCA is looking to re-home Chris Hamsworth and Tom Piggleston, who first arrived to the Edinburgh and Lothians rescue centre in November after being found underweight and in unsuitable conditions.

Now four months old the two have been enjoying their food and are healthy, they've also been castrated and given ear tags.

Diane Aitchison, centre manager, said, “We would love to find Chris and Tom the forever home they deserve.

“The boys have become favourites at the centre and love to ‘hog’ the limelight.

“They are very inquisitive and will run up to you and feed from your hand. When their bellies are full, they’ll be snuggled up together in the straw.

“Chris and Tom would suit a farm-type setting in the Edinburgh area and their new owner should have experience with pigs and the relevant CPH licence to keep them.

“Their new home should have lots of space for them to root around and should have plenty of toys and enrichment so they don’t get ‘boar-ed’.

“We know these boys would make a new family very happy. It would be marvel-ous to keep in touch as ‘pen’ pals!”
