Baby pigs roam at Japan’s latest animal-themed cafe
Mipig Cafe, in Tokyo’s central Meguro
is the newest addition to Japan’s ever-growing list of animal-themed cafes that includes cats, owls and hedgehogs.
Opened in March this year, the cafe lets visitors spend 30 minutes getting acquainted with its oinking occupants for about $8 (€7.15), plus the cost of a drink.
Visitors can pet and play with the tiny trotters on three different floors, while sipping a tea or coffee.
The ting piglets are imported from the United Kingdom and bred as pets for Japanese families.
Shiho Kitagawa from Mipig
says demand for micro pigs is increasing, their waiting list has over 100 names.
