The curious case of the pig and the parrot: Unlikely couple become the best of friends (even though Jazz always wins at chase)

A pig and a parrot may seem an unlikely pair of friends, but Xena and Jazz are firm bosom buddies.
Xena the mini-pig and his best pal Jazz, the quaker parrot, live with their owner Nichole Willett in Brisbane, Australia.
According to Nichole, despite being from completely different species, five-month-old Xena and 16-month-old Jazz are like brother and sister.
In particular, she says, the pair love nothing better than indulging in a game of chase. Nichole said: 'Xena is the wild one, she loves to chase Jazz around the house.
'I guess it is unfair because Jazz can fly but if he lands on the ground, Xena has got him.'
