A famous Santa Clarita, Calif.-based animal sanctuary shared on TikTok that it recently took in a pig that was found \u201cabandoned in a field\u201d and is suspected to be the former pet of YouTuber Logan Paul.<\/p>\n

The Gentle Barn posted on Jan. 9 that it got a call about a pig being abandoned in a field, next to another pig that had died. The pig, which the Gentle Barn referred to as Pearl, had \u201ctattered ears and a potentially life-threatening infection in her uterus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe’s clearly been through so much trauma,\u201d the Gentle Barn wrote in the caption, \u201cbut she’s now safe with us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The sanctuary also noted that Pearl was \u201cpurchased originally from a breeder by an influencer.\u201d The Gentle Barn did not disclose how it knew this information and did not specifically name Paul as the influencer in question.<\/p>\n

But on the night of Jan. 9, the sanctuary got an email from Paul that seemingly confirmed it was his pet pig from two years ago.<\/p>\n

Paul bought what he thought was a teacup pig in Sept. 2018 and named the pet Pearl. In February 2020, he tweeted that Pearl was actually not a teacup pig and included a photo of the two of them together.<\/p>\n

A year later, in February 2021, Paul announced on his podcast he was moving from Encino, Calif., to Puerto Rico \u2014 for tax reasons, he said at the time. As of June 2021, it was confirmed he was living in a $13 million mansion in Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n

Paul told the sanctuary that when he moved to Puerto Rico, Pearl was \u201cunable to come\u201d and she was rehomed \u201cat a horse ranch in Santa Clarita.\u201d He added that as far as he was aware, \u201cshe lived there fruitfully for 10 months until that homeowner moved.\u201d After that, she Pearl was allegedly sent to a farmer across the street \u201cwith the promise of care.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Paul’s email, it was the second farmer who had promised to care for Pearl who had allegedly called the sanctuary to pick her up.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear why Paul told the sanctuary in the email that he moved to Puerto Rico in April 2020 \u2014 his Instagram feed from that time features videos from inside his California home. Accounting for the timeline with Paul moving in February 2021, Pearl would have been at a horse ranch until around December 2021 or January 2022.<\/p>\n
