I just can’t be bothered…

…to stand up and eat my dinner. Doris, our expectant Berkshire sow, has developed her own, comfortable method for eating. She nudges the feed bucket into position with her snout, organises her bedding, and finally rests her head on the bucket so that when she lies down the bucket tips up and pours feed into her mouth. It’s definitely not accidental as I’ve seen her do it three times in two days.

When she’s finished, Doris sits up and looks around as if to ask “right, I’m still hungry, where’s pud”. Pigs really are entertaining animals to have around.

There is a picture like that floating around of me after a bottle of Tequilla. Not a bad way to eat though.
One of my cats does that. He needs a longer tongue.
My dog did it once, too. lazy so’n’so’s!
Now that we know how many piglets she was carrying, I can’t really blame her!
