So it's understood that in the best of cases, the pig is being cared for so that it can be murdered for food.
I grew up with livestock that would later be converted to food on our table. Those animals had one bad day their entire lives. Though we intended to eat them, we had no intention of adding to that count of bad days if we didn’t have to. So, though never called upon to do so, I’d stay up all night with a pig if she were sick even if I were going to eat her later.
