These little cuties were born a few weeks after their mom, Konpeito, was rescued. They're currently fed Fatpouches' Seed Mix and crumbled Mazuri Lab Block.

Here's a short introduction to the 4 cuties:

  • Ume (Standard Female) - Adopted: Ume may be shy at times but when on her good days, she absolutely loves being carried and gently patted. She enjoys cuddling with her sister most of the time, and can be found together with her usually.

  • Sakura (Pearl Female) - Adopted:

    Sakura is a dainty little girl who's often in her own corner, enjoying her food in her little paws while she drifts off to sleep. She is rather independent but doesn't mind her sister coming to her for cuddles.

  • Ichigo (Pearl Male) - Adopted

    Ichigo is the smallest of the bunch but a huuuge foodie. He is rather reserved and takes some time to warm up but is nonetheless a sweetie once he gets to know you (or if you have food)!

  • Kuri (Pearl Male) - Pending Adoption: Kuri is the most outgoing of the bunch. He dislikes being grabbed, but would readily climb up your palm if you offer it to him!
