With his suitcase full of dress-up clothes, Huxley Pig can do anything, go anywhere, and meet anyone he likes. With his friend Sam Seagull, Huxley performs as a clown at the circus, becomes chef for a day, and sails the high seas where he meets "merpigs", while trying to steer clear of Horace the Rat. This scheming rodent will try anything to spoil the fun of Huxley and Sam, but usually comes off second best.
