Adorable Baby Disabled Pig and His Tiny Wheelchair

Chris P. Bacon is a tiny pig who was born a few weeks ago with a defect that makes it so he can't use his back legs. Someone brought him to a vet in Florida because they couldn't care for him... and the vet decided to adopt him instead of putting him down! Yay, for great vets!

Chris needed a little help getting around though, so the vet and his son fashioned this little piggy his own set of wheels. And now he gets around with no problems! (Sometimes it looks like he's so happy that he doesn't even need his wheels -- his piggy butt lifts right up and bops and bounces all the time!).

Squeee! Or should we say squeel!

P.S. Guess what I'm doing today? I'm driving Puck to his new mommy, Cutehead Tristin B.! Puck was rescued from Broward Animal Control in Pompano. He is the sweetest cat and has some polyps in his ears that his mommy and her vet will have removed. They are bothering him, but he will be all fixed up soon! I'm driving him a couple hours this afternoon, and I'll be sure to post pictures and updates on Your Daily Cute's Facebook page and @YourDailyCute on Twitter!

Puck is one lucky kitty!

Teacup Pig Craze: Cuter than Your Average Oinker!

This morning I realized what was missing from my life... a teacup pig!

A teacup pig looks just like a regular pig, except smaller and cuter, and I want one. If I got a teacup pig, he'd be smaller than my two kitties -- even when he's full grown!

I mean, look at the teacup pig cuteness! These are a special breed of piggies, bred to be "micro-pigs" that are only 9 ounces when they're born... Pigs that are tinier than teacups? Yes!

Seriously, these little guys are adorable. No less than seven of Cute's readers have forwarded me links and stories about them, so I'm guessing it's not just me that want's a teacup pig. :)
