Pattanadon, who says he still loves his pet despite her girth, later started a profile on Facebook just for Junior -- who now has over 70,000 followers, who tune in to see the various antics the duo get up to.

According to Pattanadon, Junior accompanies him each day to his shop and walks up the stairs to their living area herself after the store is closed.

He added that he would take care of her for life, saying until "death do they part."

Earlier last year, another "micro piglet" made the news after she grew into a 270kg (600 lbs) commercial pig.

The moral of the story? Do your research before you get that teacup pig.
