A family in the UK has spoken out about how the family pet they thought to be a micro-pig ended up growing to a whopping 28 stone.
'Grace' was bought by Nigel Graham for his wife Sam as alternative pet because of her allergies to cats and dogs.
At the time, they were told the cute piglet wouldn't grow bigger than around five stone. Five years later, Grace now chomps through around £20 worth of food every week.
On top of this, 'Lad Bible' reports that the big porky princess "has now taken over the bottom floor of [the couple's] three-bedroom cottage in Malvern, Worcestershire, after she refused to sleep in an outside sty " - which has become known as 'Grace Land'.
Nigel and Sam say Grace is fully house-trained and eats three full meals a day - but is quite picky about her food.
Despite all this, they insist that Grace is a part of the family and they treat her as a daughter!
Is this not, the ultimate case of buyer beware?
