The pet pig was spotted by Home Depot employees, and quickly became friends with them.

Amanda James, a Home Depot employee, told WWMT, “We looked out the side door and there was a pig on the hill. He's super friendly, he's very sweet, doesn't make too much noise, believe it or not."

She posted a picture of Hamlet, the pig, on the Kalamazoo Area Lost Pets Facebook page. By about 1 p.m., the page posted that the pig had been reunited with its owner.

"REUNITED: and this piggy went wee wee wee all the way home," the page posted."
