My pigs seem to have an incredibly discerning sense of hearing. Not only
can they can hear the rustle of a plastic bag from great distances, but
they can distinguish between a plastic shopping bag (not interesting) or a
garbage bag (not interesting) and the plastic bags that produce comes in
(very very interesting). 

They go crazy with anticipation when they hear the clink of crockery, but
only if its their treat or pellet dishes. They pay absolutely no attention
when the table is being set or the dishwasher is loaded or unloaded. 

What clever little piggies!


Love from all of us,
Louise and her masters: Phineas, Delilah, Hillary, Mostly, Pandora,
Neville, and Mr. Norman, the Rat
