Porko's bio
I'm extra special because volunteer, Jasmine Z. and Anna, has chosen me as their Volunteer Pick!
What do you like best about Porko's personality?
Jasmine: "How social and loving Porko is!"
Anna: "He’s such a great companion! Sweet, friendly and funny, he’s got it all."
What first drew you to your pick?
Jasmine: "When cleaning Porko's cage, I went to pick him up and he was shy at first but very soon after he started happily squeaking and enjoyed being held up against me."
Anna: "He was just so friendly and really stood out. Many other piggies are shy or run away at first, but he liked people right away."
Is there something special about the way your pick looks or behaves?
Jasmine: "Porko is simply adorable and he has such a sweet spirit of curiosity!"
Anna: "I love Porko's sweet eyes and his built-in eyeliner. I also love the many color variations in his fur."
What is his coolest/silliest/most unique trait?
Jasmine: "Porko's most fun trait is how social he is, and he really enjoys roaming around!"
Anna: "He’s hysterical. During my last visit, Porko was comfortable in a little wooden playhouse with a carrot-shaped cutout as a “window”. I had a bowl of green leaf lettuce — he wanted the lettuce but didn’t want to leave the house. He stuck his head out of the carrot “window”, grabbed the bowl with his teeth and yanked it to the “window” and proceeded to chow down."
