Porkchop the Piglet Has a Full Meltdown Over Cheerios

Porkchop had one request, and Mom said no. The tiny piglet loves her Cheerios, but being told she can't have more doesn't go over well, as you'll see in this video shared by @glo112_ia.

Instead of accepting it, Porkchop makes her feelings very clear. From ignoring Mom's commands to acting like a total toddler, she's not taking no for an answer and has no problem letting Mom know it. Mom's running commentary throughout the whole scene makes it even funnier!

It's pretty clear that Porkchop's tantrum could make even the most seasoned toddler's meltdown look like a walk in the park. According to the North America Pet Pig Association (NAPPA), pigs do throw tantrums-and they even have a name for it: Spoiled Pig Syndrome (SPS).

If a pet pig shows behaviors like screaming, squealing for food, or aggression, it may be SPS. According to NAPPA, this can be caused by a lack of structure, inconsistent rules, or overindulgence. When boundaries aren't clear to them, pigs may start to see themselves as the "dominant" one and expect things to go their way on demand.

If this sounds like your pig, NAPPA shared this recommendation: "Training and consistency is critical for success in communicating. If we are NOT consistent, piggy will be getting mixed signals. Always use the same short phrases or single words to describe the behavior the pig is displaying. The rule here is: same phrase for same behavior… every time… by everyone in the family."
