He was asleep on the front porch on a Sunday night and gone Monday morning. We searched for months but never found a trace. Anyhow, that is the cutest little pig I've ever seen. Looks like he loves Paige already. He is adorable.Henny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-22412421337307281252016-12-09T15:43:56.225-06:002016-12-09T15:43:56.225-06:00It is very sad when you lose an animal that you ha...It is very sad when you lose an animal that you have loved for that many years. I'm surprised my cats didn't get out this summer when I had company as everyone was in and out all the time but they always closed the doors. My cats usually hide if I ever have company.<br />The little pig is so cute! When Amy, my daughter, was in high school I had to pick her up from play practice one night and I always took the back roads and the schools were out in the country. On our way home some pigs had gotten out from a neighbors so we tried catching them and Amy caught one little baby pig and we went home to call the neighbors. Amy fell in love with that pig and I can still picture her on the kitchen floor with that little piglet...it was love at first sight. She asked the neighbors if she could buy it but they refused....they didn't really "cotton" to us "city folk" and Amy was so disappointed she cried. It was sad as he was a cutie and we had a pig barn. We said she could buy another one but she said it wouldn't be the same as he was special and he had come into her life for a reason. Pigs are supposedly very smart...smarter than dogs but I have hard time swallowing that when I see them wallowing in the mud and smelling like they do. LOL!
