Romeo was our pet pot-bellied pig when I lived in Venice Beach. Sadly he is no longer with us.

He spent most of his time out on the deck pushing his kennel (the PigLoo) and other objects around, destroying the surface and doors and causing general havoc. But we still loved him.

In the evenings he would come into the house for several hours and play around with us and the furniture until he collapsed in a heap, usually over the central heating vent.

On the weekends it was bath time and when he was smaller we'd sometimes take him for a walk on the local beach front, much to everyone's amusement and wonder.
