Bring home the bacon: A woman in Taiwan lives with four pet pigs

TAICHUNG - Every year is the Year of the Pig in Jenny Tsai's ninth-floor apartment in Taiwan's Taichung City, which she shares with one fellow human and four pampered porcine housemates.

Website designer Tsai says her pigs are so clever that they have worked out how to open the fridge, which is now protected from wandering snouts with a rope.

"Pigs are very affectionate," she says. "When I am sick, they stay by my side and keep me company. But you can't pretend to be sick or they'll find out and wreak havoc."
