DETROIT, Feb. 23 (UPI) -- The Michigan Anti-Cruelty Society is seeking adoptive homes for four little potbellied pigs described as "cute and smart."

The three female and one male black and gray pigs -- Peanut, Pink, Sweet Pea and Rosebud -- were abandoned in a Roseville City Park last month and were taken in by a shelter, the Detroit Free Press reported.

The newspaper published the phone number of the Anti-Cruelty Society in Thursday's editions hoping for a happy ending to the animal story.

The Anti-Cruelty Society has spent more than $1,000 caring for the animals and only wants legitimate adopters to apply.

"We're being careful about where they go," said shelter director Debbie Thurman. "You don't want them in a bad situation."
