Introducing Hamlet the Wonder Pig

See that little pig laying in front of the fire? That's Hamlet the micro mini pig.  Isn't he just a little bundle of porcine cuteness?  I had done my research before purchasing him, so I knew what I was getting into.  He came from his wonderful breeder already litter trained, laid on my lap while I read, slept under the covers at my feet and snarffled up salad and piggy pellet with gusto.  I took him with me to work every day so that all and sundry could meet him, hold him, ooh and ahh over him, basically socializing him to death. He quickly became the clinic mascot and was quite full of himself, as a pig with a multitude of adoring fans is wont to do.

And then he did this.  What a talented pig!  Daddy left the door to the office open for a little bit and what wonders a young pig could find there: pens and paper, memory sticks and parrot treats, wastebaskets full of surprises. What fun!  If you look closely you can see his little tail wagging in delight.  It was a harbinger of things to come.  I might have grumbled a bit and put a moratorium on open doors, but I loved him so much that I picked him up and gave him a kiss on the snout before cleaning up.  This time....
