Montreal couple hoping city lets them keep beloved pet pig named Babe
MONTREAL — Babe the pig spends his days sleeping, going for walks on a leash or lounging around the Montreal condo he shares with his owners, their baby and three cats.
His owners, Mario Ramos and Sara-Maude Ravenelle, say he’s clean, intelligent and affectionate.
But now the couple is being faced with the prospect of giving up their family pet after a complaint from a neighbour led to a notice from the city that says micro pigs aren’t on the list of allowable pets.
The notice stated they had 15 days to find a solution that complies with city rules or else face penalties.
