A piglet nicknamed Andrex is recovering after being found in the back of a truck 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.

He was taken to an animal shelter in Radcliffe-on-Trent, outside Nottingham, suffering from cuts and bruises to his snout.

“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.

Context is everything.

    Is it just me, or does this pig’s left eye look weird. Is it shut or is it just a dried out blind eye? They should of taken a better photo.
