Farewell to "E" Pig

I first met "Emily" Pig when I visited Lend-A-Hand farm.
She was a rather large, black and white adult pig.
She would wiggle her nose and grunt.
When I volunteered  there, I'd walk by her pig pen in the morning as I did chores and say "hi" to her.  She always seemed to reply with soft grunts- perhaps content-- happy sign.
Of course if she were hungry the grunts would change.

Lend-A- Hand closed. Thus a change.

At the new farm, she was in a stall.
Apparently we were all experiencing the adjustment.
   "change is a constant"
Timing of feeding changed.
She got out of her stall a few times.
She seemed more grumpy in waiting for her food.

One morning when we approached feeding her, she pushed her way out.  To keep her in the aisle, I faced her off with a pitch fork.  I didn't touch her, just make it so she wouldn't want to get passed me.  My working partner showed her her feed bucket.  We got her back in.
Second time, I talked to her through the stall door and let her see I had a pitch fork if need be.
She calmed down, so I opened the door and passed the food to her.  She was much better.  And she seemed satisfied and good.  whew
Last few feeding went well.  She seemed to settle in.
I've checked on her water dish too, and she seems content.
Nice to leave that impression on her.

Well, with arrangements made, she'll be going to a new permanent home in PA.  Sounds like a good "pig" place.
I imagine she'll get a pig pen again and be very content.

May she find a pig paradise.

A sweet Farewell to "E" pig.

I know she left an sweet impression on me from the start.

Best to you.
