This little piggie wants his oatmeal, bad: Video

Food can be a great motivator. If someone said they’d reward me with a pan of hot, bubbly, cheesy lasagna for doing something that scared me, I’d be in, in a heartbeat. For Hamlet the mini pig, all he needs is a little oatmeal.

In the video above, a piglet named Hamlet is scared of walking down a flight of stairs. He oinks incessantly, is unbelievably cute, and you’ll find yourself rooting for him from the start.

He’s small, and each step is about as tall as he is. He paces back and forth until his owner puts a bowl of oatmeal in his face, then shows him the bowl waiting for him at the bottom of the stairs.

Hamlet backs up, almost out of view, then finally starts his descent in pursuit of the oatmeal. The end is sure to make you chuckle.
