Wellies For Dirt-Fearing Farm Animals

This little piggy named Cinders suffers from a fear of dirt. No kidding, she didn’t seem to like getting her tootsies mucked up in the mud. The syndrome, called mysophobia, caused her to be left out when her siblings played in the muck, so she missed all the fun.

Luckily Cinders’ owners Andrew and Debbie Keeble, have a very ingenious 12 year old daughter. She discovered that little Wellington boots on a key chain fit the pig perfectly, just like Cinderella’s glass slippers.

Mr Keeble and wife Debbie, both 42, run a sausage company and keep about 200 pigs on their 1,000-acre farm. But the father-of-four said there was no chance that Cinders would be slaughtered. "She's more of a pet really now and she's going to live a very long and happy life," he said. The young saddleback has been chosen by the couple as a mascot for their campaign to raise money for the Farm Crisis Network, which supports struggling farmers. (news.bbc)
