RIDGETOWN, Ont. — Friday was anything but a routine day for a University of Guelph professor at the Ridgetown campus.
Dr. Paul Luimes was called shortly after midnight and asked to come to the bathroom at the Tim Horton’s location in Ridgetown.
Police wanted to determine if a four-week-old weaner pig found abandoned in the bathroom belonged to the college.
“It wasn’t one of ours," said Luimes. “But it was a healthy, young pig that weighed about 15 pounds."
Luimes offered to take the pig back to the college for the balance of the night.
When he arrived at the college shortly after 8 a.m. the pig had been claimed by its owner - reportedly a student who lives nearby.
Luimes said he placed a heat lamp above the pig and gave it food and water before heading home to bed.
“It’s not every night you get called to come and rescue a pig from a restaurant bathroom," he said. “I sure hope no one tries to upstage this incident."
He said the incident was the talk of his classes during the day.

DOGHNUT DECTECTIVE:THIS PIGGY WENT to Tim Hortons
ReplyDeleteONE DAY ADAM THE PIG Decided to go an on adventure to find a girlfriend . But he found was doughnut? In the small city Ridgetown Ontario, (Canada) the Tim Hortons had a strange coustomer in or was it animal cruelty? The shop employees called Dr. Paul Luimes to help them. The employee called police at 10:30 p.m. after a customer found the pig in the restaurant's washroom. Police were called and thought that the pig was belonged at the University of Guelph's Ridgetown campus, located down the street from the restaurant. However the piggy might belong to the agriculture school..Right? The Swine specialist at the school, awoken one night midnight by a phone call from campus security. Rushed to the Tim Hortons, where he found the pig, now stored in a box, "getting rambunctious," he said. But Adam the piglet was out on his adventure and he thought his friend Samnatha was at the Tim Hortons to find the right doughnut for the date. But Samantha was at work that day? Dr. Paul Luimes checked the pig's ears for tattoos. The agriculture school tags the pigs with Tattoos for their research. The school should keep investigating to what kind of doughnut that pig liked ,Correct? Dr. Paul Luimes found none so he thought he better take the pig home and get some animal feed. Would that dougnut poisoned him if had brought home for his cousin named Samantha for the date and no one understood what he saying pig language to get that Doughnut? So anyway we took the pig, set it up in a separate barn and gave it food for the night," Luimes said. But was the owner of this Pig making it a crime or a prank? A police man asked this question: "I'm not sure if it was a prank or if the owner legitimately left the pig inside and forgot about it,"(known as) Const. Michael Pearce, of the Chatham-Kent Police Service, said as he spoke to CBC News. But was Friday a routine day for a University of Guelphthe professor at the Ridgetown campus, Right?
maybe you should call the FIB doughnut force for helping pigs to gethelp with getting the right doughnut for girlfriend Samantha Right? Samantha Laura Marciniak. from Bc. has type this view on the story!
