I'd like you to meet Rudy. I met him this afternoon - close up and personal. Rudy is the pet pig of Gina's friend. We went to a fun craft/flea market thing in Friendship, Indiana. I put my camera in the car because I have not been using it enough! But who knew I would share a picture of a pig. Rudy lives in the house! He uses a litter box, I asked, and right now he is shoveling up cherries. After I took this he came over and licked my leg! I have no idea what Rudy must weigh - he is a porker. I didn't go in the house but Gina said her friend was frying bacon. Now - how can that be??
He is hairy and sort of gritty to pet. Can you tell I am a city girl?
Frying bacon??? Really. I am a city girl, too. I always said I would have loved to have lived during the "Little House on the Prairie" days, but I think I would have survived about 5 minutes.
Rudy is a lot of pet! Fun story, I have heard pigs can be good, clean, friendly pets but it wouldn't be for me. And cooking bacon - ooh, isn't that sort of awful when your best friend is a pig?
Fab shot! I've seen these guys and they act just like dogs - can be trained and even wag their little tails when they're happy. Cute as babies, but sadly, outgrow most city homes.
Great capture, Cathy.
