Pumpkin

Pumpkin is a Kune Kune sow. She arrived at the farm with two companions, Pudding, another Kune Kune and Princess, a large pink sow. They had been all been bought as piglets and kept as pets, playing ball with the children, coming to call, having bellies scratched. Circumstances changed and the family had no option but to find a new home where they could all be kept together. Pumpkin is a friendly little soul, she loves her food, particularly apple sandwiches, and she loves to escape by rooting up the fence to visit Colin our handsome ginger boar.
