SAN ANTONIO — It was "snout" the scene one woman imaged she would come across. Three little piggies were found underneath her vehicle Wednesday morning on San Antonio's north side.
“I look under the car and I see just fur, and to me, it looked like a gray dog,” Jessica Monsivais said.
It seemed like a "pig-ment" of her imagination.
"Oh my gosh, that's a pig," Monsivais said.
She had no idea where they came from or who they belonged to.
Her home surveillance camera even captured them on the move.
“And then we got them to the backyard and here they are,” Monsivais said.
To keep them comfortable, Monsivais and her family wanted to let them pig out.
“We looked up what you could feed pigs, so we fed them tortillas and they were eating that,” she said.
They made sure to check with neighbors nearby and posted on Nextdoor to try and find the owners. So far, they have not had any luck.
“We want to keep them, but you know, we probably know they came from someone’s home, and we just want to give them back to where they belong,” Monsivais said.
In the end, she said she hopes these three little piggies cry wee wee wee all the way back home.
“We want them to remain pets, hopefully nothing bad happens, you know. We just want to get them back, to be pet pigs,” she said.
The family has contacted a wildlife rescue group that is willing to help if they can’t find the owners.
On Friday, the rescue group "Maegical Animal Haven" agreed to take in the pigs.
