We introduce the Pet Pigs of South Pattaya.
An unusual story now from house number 108/55 in Soi Tamsamakee Temple in South Pattaya. Khun Turian invited us to her house to visit her unusual house pets. A conventional pet such as a Dog or a Cat would certainly not make the news; however in this case, Khun Turian has been living with two Pigs for 11 years. The two pigs used to roam the streets and would play with cats and dogs, however now the two Pigs, from what we can see, are coming to the end of their lives. Both are now unable to walk due to excessive eating and the larger of the two pigs is now thought to weigh over 500kgs. We spoke with local residents who have lived with these pigs for many years along with the unusual and often offensive smells associated with such animals. They told us they don’t mind the pigs and are sad that they are now both unable to walk and appear close to death. Khun Turian is also upset because she feels she has taken good care of the pigs over the years. Both are now still eating but refusing liquids which will surely lead to their swift demise.
