In late March 2024, actor Pierre Niney took to TikTok to reveal his newest love affair—not with a co-star, but with an adorable miniature donkey he’s recently adopted. The tiny equine, fully grown yet no larger than a Labrador, has captured the hearts of his fans. Social media is full with clips of tiny cows, goats, and pigs lounging on couches, napping in laps, or trotting on leashes, especially across the U.S. These diminutive creatures are becoming the increasingly sought after, a trend that’s sweeping the nation, but it’s not without its pitfalls.
The allure of miniature animals is multifaceted. For starters, social media is awash with their antics, sparking a growing fascination with owning one. Moreover, these videos suggest that you can enjoy the perks of farm life without owning a sprawling farm.
