Miley Cyrus has got herself a pet piglet.

The Wrecking Ball singer shared pictures on Instagram of Bubba Sue, the latest member of her family.

Several snaps showed the star cuddling up to the little pig, while one showed her giving it a peck on the snout.

Another image showed Miley clutching the piglet, which was wrapped in a blanket, and appeared to have been taken on a plane. She captioned it: "Piggy on a pj."

Miley, 21, is well known to be a dog lover and has often shared pictures of her pooches with her fans.

One Instagram snap showed her sitting with both Bubba Sue and one of her dogs on her lap and she wrote: "Happiest mommy ever."
