Thanks to Susan for sending this snap of her daughter cuddling up to a piglet.

Susan told us that daughter Georgina fell instantly in love with this cute little piglet at her partner Ian’s farm in Carnaby, East Yorkshire.

Ian solely takes care of 2,000 weaners and 2,000 store pigs, with Georgina and Susan checking for any poorly weaners.

It’s great to see a picture summing up the affection and care farmers have for their animals.
