Jessica Simpson is thinking about getting a pet, piglet five months after her 5-year-old maltipoo, Daisy, was snatched by a coyote. Simpson Tweeted, “I’m thinking about getting a pet pig. Does this mean I’ll have to give up pork?” Almost on cue, PETA responded.
A rep for the animal-rights group tells UsMagazine.com: “Pigs, who are smarter than dogs and every bit as sensitive to pain and stress, don’t belong in Jessica’s stomach or carted around as her latest accessory.”
