In 2012, Steve Jenkins was contacted by an old friend asking if he wanted to adopt a micro pig.
Also known as miniature pigs or ‘teacup’ pigs, these little pigs never grow up. At full size, they’ll stand shoulder to shoulder with a small dog. A terrier, for example. They’re intelligent, adorable, and highly responsive to household training.
With that in mind, Steve leapt at the opportunity. By the Winter of 2012, Steve, his partner Derek, and Esther the 1.8 kilogram micro pig were a perfect family.

Not surprising, given there is no such thing as micro pigs. They are just piglets kept starved.
