Minnie Pig

Meet Miss Minnie...our newest--and noisiest--addition to the farm! Minnie is an 8 week old Juliana mini pig, and she loves cuddling under the covers, rooting at the pillows (and anything else she comes across), and slurping down runny oatmeal.

But who doesn't? You outta hear her squealing with delight when I pour that runny stuff into her food bowl.

Or have you already? She is pretty loud at feeding time.

As soon as she sees me walk into the kitchen she starts squealing like a stuck pig, and then when she gets her food, she furiously shoves her snout down into it and starts making the loudest slurping sounds I have ever heard in my life.

Aside from when I get to the bottom of my Cree Mee drive-in marshmallow milkshake, that is.

But I try to only eat those in private...it's slightly embarrassing to do it in public.

​Minnie, on the other hand, has no shame.

Pigs. You can't live with them, and you can't live without them...

​

Unless your name is Thomas the Cat.

Tom isn't quite sure what to make of Minnie, but she sure likes him.

Join the crowd, Minnie. We all like Tom...he's a "cool cat" kind of kitty. Just be sure to give him some space...

And a kiss on the forehead every now and then.

Nobody could resist that!

And I hope I'm next.
