[Gpdd] Misc: Piggie Patrol, Oranges, etc.

[Carrie Mooser]

I was at our local Super Petz and have to check the
pigs everytime I go in and I wish I hadn't!  They have
the cutest little black/white shorthaired boy!  He's
so cute, but I didn't buy him.  But I want too!  No
more boys though, have 4 right now, and I can't buy
one from a petstore, can't encourage the purchasing of
pigs when so many need homes.
