BARTLETT — I'm Cookie the pig, and I'm looking for a safe and loving forever home.

I was taken away from my mother 10 months ago, along with all my sisters and brothers, to be in a pig scramble at the Fair. Our sensitive ears and tails were pulled, and kids jumped on us trying to force us into bags. We had never been away from our mother before, and people were being so mean.
