Wheek and Swoon, Piggies—it’s Valentino Day! 🐹 🎥 🍿💘

“Le Wheek, C’est Chic (Sheik)”

🎶 I’m the Sheik of Araby—
Your lettuce belongs to me!

Rudolph Valentino was one of the greatest romantic stars of the silent-film era. With his smoldering eyes, slicked-back hair and exotic leading roles in films such as The Sheik, he became the screen heartthrob of the 1920s. Your grand-sows and great-grand-sows might well have swooned over him at the local picture palace—although they may have known him better as Rudolph Wheekentino!

In our tail-less retelling, the dashing Sheik courts Lady Petunia with dramatic pantomime, daring rescues and irresistible offerings of lettuce. After all, nothing says romance quite like procuring fresh greens in the middle of a desert!

Happy Valentino Day to piggy romantics, lettuce-givers and handsome little leading boars everywhere! ❤️ 🐹 🌿

Wheek! Wheek!
