Paris Hilton "totally in love" with micropig

Feature by Cover Media.
Published 12 November 2009

Paris Hilton is “totally in love” with a micro-pig.

The blonde heiress bought the tiny creature – named Princess Pigelette - for $4,500 last month. Although it seemed an unusual choice of pet, Paris quickly became “obsessed” with the pig, praising its “amazing” intelligence and charm.

The 28-year-old socialite wrote on her Twitter account: “Taking Princess Pigelette for a walk in my backyard. She is so smart! She's litter boxed-trained and leash-trained too. I love my lil piggy!

“Princess Pigelette is adorable! She is so happy here in her new home with me, all my other pets love her too! She is too cute for words!”

Paris is famous for her love of tiny pets, including Chihuahuas, ferrets and kittens.

Micro-pigs are born the size of a hamster and can grow as large as a medium-sized dog. They are popular among several other celebrities, including George Clooney, David and Victoria Beckham and Rupert Grint.

  • Do you know what makes me want to vomit is that she is a millionaire animal hoarder. She has 17 dogs (by her own admission), cats, and now a PIG. Not only that but she INSISTS on giving these animals the TEACUP label. There is NO SUCH THING as a TEACUP PIG. There is no such thing as a TEACUP CHIHUAHUA. Back yard breeders and puppy millers use TEACUP as a way to get uneducated pet owners to spend RIDICULOUS amounts of money on whatever breed they are selling. They are SIMPLY the RUNT of the litter, often sicker than the rest with many health problems. These are NOT accessories. These are NOT toys. They are LIVING BREATHING ANIMALS that require love, affection, care, money, and time. I am not a Paris nor am I a Paris hater. I think she is a very smart woman who needs to be educated on these so called TEACUPS. So since PARIS HILTON HERSELF posted this link from her Twitter, a message for Miss Hilton: Google Puppy Mills. Watch the videos of how your so called TEACUPS came to be. Google where pet store puppies and kittens come from. If you can watch those videos of those poor animals being treated that way and still promote that teacup MYTH, then you deserve all the haters you have. You need to think about what you're saying. Stop playing the airhead roll long enough to research an animal before you purchase it. There are MILLIONS of your fans begging for "teacup chihuahuas" because YOU have one. Imagine their surprise when their runt of the litter dies because it was sickly and badly bred. Can you still promote that Myth Paris??

  • well.. she is young, rich and famous. She can do anything she wants, as long it doesn't hurt anybody and the mico-pigs.

  • How can anyone with any intellectual qualities tolerate her presence! With all her pets & her constant partying & changing of "costumes", how does she have time to develop perfumes or beauty products? Surely she employs someone who does all the work & is paid handsomely for giving credit to this narcissistic airhead.
