When Wilma was born at the start of April she was the littlest piggy of all and struggled to compete with her siblings for her mother Marjorie's attention. Two of the sow's ten piglets died at birth so owner Nick decided to rescue Wilma by keeping her warm in the family's cottage in Low Lorton near Cockermouth. Wilma immediately made herself comfy in Bramble, the collie dog's bed, but Bramble didn't mind, she just climbed in too. Now the family faces a dilemma about what to do with Wilma as she grows bigger. Nick Lawler tells Natalie Mace about the difficult decision he faces. What do you think should happen to Wilma?

Bramble even licks off the milk Wilma spills on herself at feeding time. Despite being bottle fed, Wilma will still attempt the impossible and try to suckle from Bramble.
But Wilma's bacon was only saved so she can be sent to market, returning as sausage for Nick's guests at Winder Hall Country House. Reason this little piggy should stay at home - Wilma's returned to living outdoors now she can no longer fit in Bramble's dog basket. Should she follow in her mother's footsteps and become the family's prime pork producer?
Reason this little piggy should go to market - Nick doesn't believe the littlest, weakest piglet will breed well. And why should Wilma be saved when her siblings will certainly become pork chops?
