This little piggy went to market.

Is this the game they're playing, the one we love to play with a baby's toes, the pigs seem to have counters. What next?

Although they do say pigs are highly intelligent. Remember George Orwell's Animal Farm?

Pigs play with toys, designed by artists, to improve their welfare, in a sty in Raalte, the Netherlands. The initiative was taken by the animal protection society of Raalte. CNN

I recently read about a guy in China who's doing some wonder thing to make the pork taste better....The pigs live in 5 star and he apologises to them and have music played for them and everything. I suppose if ya gotta go....

The toys look like food to me though. The things people will do, I suppose there's no harm if it makes the animals happy.

Kleonaptra mentioning about the guy in China reminds me of a news report I heard on the local radio about cows and being fed hemp in Liechtenstein news article here.

As always a pleasure reading your posts Katyzzz.

Take Care.

Kleo,

If you gotta go....someone should say 'I'm sorry".

I'm sure I could do the same thing just by talking to them and stroking them, but then to eat poor little porkie, not a good way to go.

Sarah,

If once is good, twice is better, just what do they feed poor moos in the UK? It seems to be good for you.

Read the article, thanks for that, if I'm not careful I'll have to give up milk along with the other things I can't drink.

Thanks, thanks, for your visits, visits. Always good to have you, have you.
