A few years ago I was looking for a piggy bank to give to my year-old nephew for Christmas.  I found all sorts of piggy banks.  Red, blue, green, pink, polka-dots, stripes, solids, furry, football pigs, soccer pigs, bicycle pigs, baseball pigs, sports team pigs, ceramic, cast iron, plastic, clay, leather, brass, wooden, chrome, clear, large, small, flowery, psychedelic, seasonal, electronic, musical, talking, oinking, fat pigs, skinny pigs, and pigs dressed as other animals.  I ended up settling on a blue ceramic piggy bank with red polka dots, or something like that.

But I never found the piggy bank I was looking for.  It seems so obvious!  Why hasn’t anyone made this particular pig yet?

So I think someone should combine the following two pictures:

Here is my rendering of what it should look like:

The shape should be like a real pig I think, not like a blimp with snout, feet, and ears as an afterthought, you know . . . for accuracy.

So if anyone decides to make this and can make any profit at it, I think that’s great.  But I want a cut . . . something I can have for breakfast.  Ham or bacon.  Either is fine with me.
