Well after fostering a certain sow from the gypsy batch and falling for her badly I decided to keep her as my own seeing as Ani n Abbi were adopted by a wonderfull family.
So meet Munch my special sow with 4 toes on her back feet.

Anyway while during floortime one day i noticed she hadn't toileted on the lovely beige carpet so put her back and she had the biggest wee possible, so I thought I'd give something a try and got out my pet carrier and put easybed and hay in it and attached a water bottle and set it in the living room and got Munch out, well to this day 2 weeks later she still has had no accidents and uses the carrier to toilet in. She goes and sun bathes in the sun to sleep and has the run of the whole flat but she will not go in the kitchen or our bedroom even with open doors.
She is like a dog we cant have yet, of course shes' not left out unsupervised and still has her Nero 4. She gained a 5 week old sow as a friend Yesterday and when Bumble has settled then I'll take some pics of her, so munch is very happy to have another cheeky friend to show the ropes on being a toilet trained house piggy :))

What a clever piggy! She's lovely Becky! I do think its best to keep the ones that melt your heart! :(|)
 
What a lovely girl! No wonder you fell for her!

I am glad that I am not the only having happy pigs running around the living room (while I'm there). There have been more tea stains than pggiy accidents in five years - they use their toilet corners with mats on plastic sheeting. I have a stain remover handy, just in case...

Just make sure the new one hasn't a go at the cables! I hope that the bonding will go well.
 
awww, she's adorable and what a great set-up you have! my boars poop and pee everywhere they can!
 
Such a beautiful girlie! I love that she is free range, and I suspect she loves that too!
 
aww she's lovely and great that she is toilet trained...clever piggie
 
That's really lovely, she is a charming piggie. (Mine won't toilet on the carpet pieces or tiles in the conservatory, just on the fleece/towelling/sheeting that I put down for them. Isn't it wonderful seeing them explore... And mine won't go over the threshold into the next room either. They just won't!) Thank you for the pigtures, she is lovely.
 
Aw what a clever wee girl :) Mine dont poop and wee while they're out either but they do try to get behind tv so need to block it off from them ;)
 
They are so sweet together! What a lovely pair!

I'm so glad that they have bonded well and, by the looks of it, are enjoying life to the hilt!
 
Aww what a good girl, they are both stunning.
You are very lucky to have such a good little piggy
