She May Be 3x Bigger Than Vets Predicted, But This Teacup Pig Thinks She’s One Of The Dogs!

| Published on April 18, 2016

When teacup pigs became famous, almost everybody wanted one as a pet. They are cute, pink, and the thought of them looking like a baby piglet for the rest of their lives is simply irresistible. However, some who were thought to be teacup pigs grow into a huge pig. And sadly, some of them couldn’t be kept as a housepet anymore. And some who just went with the fad didn’t like keeping the pigs anymore.

Luckily for one pig named Esther, her owners were animal lovers. They loved her even though she wasn’t the teacup pig they thought she would be. Her owners, Derek and Steve got her when she was six months old.

According to them, the vet said she wouldn’t grow more than 200 pounds. They didn’t think that she would grow as big as 650 pounds.

Thankfully, her owners didn’t abandon her. They even moved to another place because it was illegal to have Esther as a pet.

When Esther was just small, she loved cuddling with her canine siblings. She loves playing with them and with their toys too. And now that she has grown enormously, that didn’t change.

Esther still loves cuddling with her canine siblings!

And Esther’s siblings clearly loves her so much!
