Kansas City police Twitter

After a quick detour Tuesday, one little piggy went wee wee wee all the way back home.

Kansas City police found Pearl the pig Tuesday morning wandering near Shoal Creek Parkway and North Harrison Street in the Staley Meadows neighborhood. Officers put out a call on Twitter, asking anyone with information to help them return the 50 to 60 pound pig to her owner.

By about 11 a.m., Pearl and her owner were back together.

“She made it many blocks on her journey,” the police department wrote. “Her name is Pearl and she’s back home and once again in hog heaven with her family.”
