Edith ( white) & Evelyn ( brown) age AVAILABLE ❤️

Evelyn and Edith are looking for a special home! This gorgeous sow pair need someone who can give them the time, patience and care they need. They came in very neglected and absolutely terrified. Both now in excellent health and although timid have gotten used to being touched once the initial pick up is out the way and will now sit on your lap and eventually relax and enjoy a cuddle.

We are looking for an indoor home to get them used to company, with adults and older children who are patient, calm, gentle, and willing to go at Evelyn and Edith's pace to help them live their best life.

Could you be their forever home ?
