In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes you step by step through what to expect in the very first week with your new piglet and how to set them (and yourself) up for success.           Autumn shares practical tips for preparing your home before your piglet arrives, including how to set up a safe starter space that feels like a nursery, not a prison. She explains the basics of litter box training, why patience is key when your piglet seems skittish or squeals when touched, and how to avoid unintentionally reinforcing whining or destructive behaviors. You\u2019ll also learn why teaching independence from the start is one of the greatest gifts you can give your piglet\u2014and how ignoring attention-seeking behaviors actually builds confidence and calm.           This episode also tackles common struggles like accidents, fear-based squealing, and even early biting tendencies, with solutions that focus on patience, consistency, and understanding. Autumn emphasizes that none of these challenges mean you\u2019re failing as a pig parent\u2014they\u2019re simply normal stepping stones in your piglet\u2019s adjustment period.            If you\u2019re preparing to bring home a piglet, or if you\u2019ve just started your journey and feel unsure about the squeals, messes, or setbacks, this episode will encourage you, equip you with tools, and remind you that your piglet doesn\u2019t need you to be perfect\u2014just patient. With the right start, you\u2019ll build a strong foundation for a happy, confident, lifelong companion.
