  • WordsnCollision, on 05/21/2008, -0/+5If you owned one, would you feel guilty eating bacon for breakfast? Would the pig feel guilty eating table scraps?
    • mattcoady, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1Not at all and the best part is, when it passes on, unlike dog you won't feel uncomfortable eating it.
      • stronglikedan, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2What do you mean "unlike dog"?
  • Berkana, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3Train it to use a litter box, and it'll be perfect.
    • Simplogic, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1when I was a kid I had a runt pig in the house for a while (it eventually got HUGE). They're surprisingly easy to train. They don't really like kitty litter, the stones get in their feet, but if you put down some newspaper in a box they're more than happy to use that.

  • BrownieBrown, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1California had a pig fad back in 90s, Miniature Vietnamese Pot Belly Pigs. The final result was the feral pig population increased by 10 times. Great for hunters. Bad for landowners.
