Vanna White, Dimmie & Shadow came to us on 11/8/24 because their owner no longer had time for them. Phoebe came to us on 1/24/25 along with an oops litter. After she was done nursing them, she moved to her current foster. After being spayed she was introduced to the other girls.
Fostered by Sandy in Manchester, NH.

UPDATE 4/24/25:
Dimmie is much more confident and I don’t worry about her nipping. Shadow and Vanna White are no longer easily startled so I no longer worry about getting nipped if something startles them while they are grooming me. It may take a few weeks, but a patient human should be able to earn the same trust that I have.
Phoebe is very active and industrious. She enjoys building elaborate nest out of eco bedding, making tunnels in the dig box and playing with her friends. Friendly but shy, she will need her new human to be patient and calm.
UPDATE 12/31/24:
These gals are gorgeous! Dimmie and Shadow both have a lovely grey color with interesting markings and pink eyes. Vanna is a petite little PEW. They are all very active and curious. They love the dig box, foraging activities, running, climbing and wrestling with each other. Their lucky furever humans will undoubtedly enjoy watching them play and should be ready to provide lots of enrichment in and out of the cage.
They are all nervous about being picked up and will need an experienced human with a bit of patience who understands that a curious approach isn’t always consent to being touched. Dimmie is the most anxious about being restrained and may give a little warning nip if she is startled. Shadow is a little braver and gets into a tunnel or igloo pretty easily when being moved in and out of the cage. Independently social, they check me out during play time and will explore my hands and face with her mouth. This is NOT biting, but if a human jerked away quickly it could become an unintended nip. Vanna is the most outgoing one and has let me scoop her up in my hands several times.
They all love cheerios and gerber puffs and come running to me when I shake the container. I will miss their antics when they go to their furever home.
