George Clooney's 300-pound potbellied pig, Max, died last Friday.
Clooney once said that his longest relationship ever was with Max, his personal porker. The oinker had serious health
problems -- he had arthritis and was partially blind. In 2001, Max was accidentally hit by a car driven by one of Clooney's friends.
Clooney has had the squealer for 18 years. He got porcine custody after his breakup with Kelly Preston. Tough year for Clooney; his bulldog also died earlier this year.

i thought the photo was the latest britney nipple slip, my bad...carry on.
So sorry Mr. Clooney on the passing of Max and on your dog ealier this year. It's tough now but you'll get through it. Good luck to you in the new year and may the new year find you with a new pet pig:)
Loss of a companion animal can be as traumatic as that of any family member. But I wonder: does George Clooney eat meat? If so, it's just another instance of our culturally schizoid view of and approach to animals.
How awful....losing a beloved pet is such a hard thing to go through, and to lose two in one year? Everything is so different and lonely after a pet dies, especially when you've had one for years and years. I feel for anyone who loses a pet. I don't think its possible to get over the loss you just learn to live with it and its awful.
I hope time heals your sorrow and may the warm memories remain.
With my heartfelt sympathy.
I am sure that his pet pig died because of the fact that since the republicans lost control of the government, at all levels that there won't be anymore "pork barrel" projects.
Yea, too bad...you guys get all weepy about the strangest sh*t!
If he wants nother pig, why doesn't he give Oprah a shot?
Amy (#23), that is no way to speak of the dead, although I'm sure he would have been flattered.
So sorry Mr. Clooney, may Max RIP. And to the insensitive lout who posted "pork chops!"...whatever.
RIP Max. Sounds like he had a long and happy life (except for the car incident - I would KILL one of my friends if they hit my pet!). Animals are the best - people suck. Condolences George. Peace out, Max.
So sorry you lost both your friends this year, my heart goes out to you.
You gave them a better life than they would have ever had.
Rest in peace Max
Lots of love
