Family rescues frozen piglet found in blizzard

This little piglet almost became a frozen pork-cicle!

According to a Facebook post by Sarah Pekkanen, friends of her were staying at a Pennsylvania ski resort to try and ride out the massive storm as snow covered the area. While the family was out for a walk, they found a baby pig stuck in the snow and ice near a highway and nearly frozen to death.

As a snowplow made its way toward them, they knew the little pink pig would be buried alive so the family scooped it up and snuck it back to their resort in a sweatshirt. 

The Smith family was able to warm the piglet up and nurse him back to health. Their new pet, named Wee Wee, also enjoyed a dinner of mashed banana and grapes.  

After the storm subsided, Wee Wee went home with the Smith's to Chevy Chase, Maryland temporarily. The Poplar Animal Sanctuary has agreed to take Wee Wee and look after him.
