London,
(ANI):
Socialite
Paris
Hilton
has
come
under
fire
from
People
for
the
Ethical
Treatment
of
Animals
(PETA)
for
planning
to
adopt
a
piglet.
The
hotel
heiress
recently
announced
that
she
was
adding
a
pot
bellied
pig
named
Princess
Piglette
(sic)
to
her
menagerie
of
pets
after
ordering
the
Royal
Dandie
from
a
pig
breeder
in
Oregon,
reports
the
Daily
Express.
Her
rep
told
TMZ.com,
"Paris
is
thrilled!
She
is
a
major
animal
lover
and
is
excited
for
the
arrival
of
her
new
piglette
(sic)." However,
Hilton''s
latest
move
has
left
the
animal
rights
group
livid,
who
have
accused
her
of
treating
animals
like
'disposable
accessories".
A
spokesperson
for
PETA
said:
"The
Chihuahuas,
ferrets,
and
kinkajous
she''s
paraded
through
her
home
in
the
past
were
not
accessories,
and
pot-bellied
pigs
aren''t
either."
