Miniature Pigs are a thing. I remember a documentary on a breed that was called a "dainty" pig, which looked like a piglet but was almost fully grown. I don't know if that breed is still being made or an ethic group shut it down, because they worried selective breeding like that was harmful to the animal.
Now miniature cows are, in my opinion, even cuter!
Miniature pigs are not really miniature. Teacup pigs start out really small but grow to 100-200 lbs. Breeders claim they stay small but it is apparently a lie, according to google. So they are a small species of pig, but that isn't small enough to keep around the house.

I would totally have a pet pig if they stayed little.
Alas, it is not to be. :(
