Find Me My Furever Home is a weekly video featuring animals up for adoption at the Chilliwack SPCA. It is put together by The Progress in partnership with the Chilliwack SPCA.

Three stray miniature pot-bellied pigs at the Chilliwack SPCA are looking for a special person to foster them before they鈥檙e available for adoption.

The mother, who鈥檚 about two years old, and her two female piglets (about three months old) were found in West Vancouver and transferred to the Chilliwack SPCA on Dec. 22. The pigs are not up for adoption yet, but the local branch is hoping someone can foster them.

鈥淪ometimes those foster homes can look pretty specialized, dealing with some really compromised animals behaviourally, medically鈥 or some unusual animals,鈥 said Chlo茅 MacBeth, branch manager with the Chilliwack SPCA.
