Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #177 and Internat'l Cat Day

  Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy 

Here is our challenge for today 


Breeder says:
He is a pot bellied pig.
no worries
He will not get very big,

Pig says:

My name is Hamilton.
I thought, that is a big name for a wee piglet!!
Please call me Ham.
Thank you ma'am.

I love being my family's constant companion on the couch.
They keep my snacks near by in a pouch.
They don't want me to be a grouch.

The good snacks made my lips go SMACK
Glory be....
I grew into my name Hamilton.

This little piggie won't go to the 
Market because they 
LOVE my BIG BUTT
better than any MUTT.

    Pigs make good pets! I knew three in OZ. Two were the supposed Vietnamese pot belly "won't grow big" kind... Another was a Gloucester old spot. They were all adorable 😍. So I loved your poem today! YAM xx
