Normally pigs are found in toilet paper-related stuff!

LONDON (Reuters) -
A piglet nicknamed Andrex is recovering after being found in the back of a lorry full of toilet paper at a supermarket.

The animal, thought to be two or three weeks old, was discovered in a delivery at a Tesco store in Ilkeston, Derbyshire.

Staff wrapped the piglet in a duvet and called the RSPCA, a Tesco spokesman said on Tuesday.

"We will now care for him until he is fit enough to be found a permanent home," said Ella Herring, the shelter's deputy manager.

"Staff are used to dealing with the unexpected, but little Andrex's arrival was a shock," a Tesco spokesman said.

"They took it in their stride, wrapping him up straightaway in a duvet in the manager's office and calling the RSPCA for advice and help."
