Trudy van Riper was woken up by her cats "growling". When she opened the door, they hid under the sofa in the living room. 

When she looked out the window, she saw an "elliptical moon" lighting up her backyard and part of the pasture beyond. 

When she got to the front door, she found a strange little car on the lawn that looked like a Volkswagen without wings or doors. 

Three small men in dark clothing appeared from above, one of whom telepathically contacted her, saying:

"Are there any pigs in this field? They're hungry." 

Then she saw two strange furry animals standing erect next to the men. She returned to the house, and when she looked again, the object was already flying, and the "moon" had disappeared. 

She later learned that several pigs were missing from a nearby farm.

Going to the front door, she discovered a strange little vehicle sitting on her lawn, which resembled a Volkswagen without fenders or doors.

They are hungry.” Then she saw near the men two peculiar animals covered with fuzzy hair, standing erect.
