Tiny peeg, tiny feets

Sender-Inner Ellen recently snorgled this pot-bellied piglet with the tiniest of feets.

He's about 10 days old, and lives at Domino's petting farm in Ann Arbor, MI.

According to Ellen, there are about 20 of these freshly-borned little guys running around in the pen, and they all sleep together in a long line. Ahn. [Head tilt]

Excellent footage, Ellen! ;)

Those little porcine feets are so cute, I would nibble them, even though they're not kosher.

Just don't lick the wet snortsicle; there'll be an uproar.

They have llamas there, too. Sometimes you can see them from the freeway as you drive by.

I'll be the first to note the very nice manicure on the piglet-holder. And that's a really soft and cozy looking shirt the piggeh is snuggling up to.

Excellent footage, indeed!

I bet if you combined this piglet with the rescued bunny from Ireland the result would be a Black Hole of Cute that could destroy us all.

Hey, I'm close to A-squared, too! I like seeing those long horned cattle-ish thingies when we go by on the highway.

And yeah, my team let me down big time today. Go Baroooo!!! :-(

This is a catur-piggie-day? A cat-a-pigg-ur-ie-day? A piggie on caturday?? A catapig?

 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 03:54 PM

What, that isn't a kitten? Looks like a kitten to me, "*sheesh*", well it may not meow, but baby things are pretty-much fungible from where I sit. Oh, a little oinklette and perhaps a little snufflette would sound so good right now...

Katrina
 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 04:19 PM

They have a herd of buffalo there also - quite startling when you first see them from the freeway! LOL at Go Baroo! The Wolverines certainly did not do well today.

 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 04:25 PM

Is there a "Scenic Overlook" or something" Are all of you peeps about to get rear-ended? God, you're scaring me-how does anyone get past you on the highway? (snicker, snicker)
"Things with horns" can be cars, too!

Katrina
 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 04:56 PM

AND now I have The Wa-waTusi song in my head, thanks.....oh, that'll last all night!

Where is Hon Glad?

Katrina
 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 04:57 PM

While I'm at it- Slave to Three-how are you doing? Write back!

Katrina
 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 05:19 PM

No scenic overlook, it's just that the meadows and grazing pens are by the highway side of the road and the buildings and such are farther in, away from the traffic noise, I suppose.

LOL @ "things with horns". I haven't been honked at-yet. Maybe everyone is slowing down at the same time trying to sneak a peek at the cute leetle piggies?

 |  Sep 13, 2008 at 05:27 PM

One would hope, momof2kitties, one would hope. I know I'd be there hangin' off the side rails....

Does anyone else think piglet looks a little like Yoda?

My favorite pigs are guinea, but this one is awful cute. Want to hug!

Feets so small they aren't worth pickling.

Whoops, I meant tickling!

1: I second Berthaservant's harrumph.
2: I'm also astonished that no one has yet made the obligatory (?) pun, about your caption for "this
little Piggie's" feet ... the fact that you referred to the quality of the [wait for it ...] "Footage"!!!???

Just to correct one of the comments - those aren't my (Ellen's) hands in the picture, they are owned by one of the very nice ladies that work at Domino's who was kind enough to sort one of the piglets out of the bunch for us to pet.

I don't have a picture of them all sleeping in a line, but I'll try to get one next week. Meanwhile, there are a couple of his many siblings over on my blog, along with extremely hi-rez originals, here:

TAKE ME TO THE PLANET OF THE PIGGIES!

Totalee Puppy
 |  Sep 15, 2008 at 06:24 PM

I am a benign visitor to the Planet of the Piggies.
I will bring beet borscht,
cabbage soup, potato latkes and other kosher goodies so that piggies
will get a severe case of grabbie-hands and slurpy-mouf and sniffy-snout...
