Belladonna (Adopted)

Species: Syrian

Est. Age: 8 months

Gender: Female

Likes: her wheel, millet and flax sprays, baby food, digging and climbing

Dislikes: being flipped over, being bored, puffed corn, dried herbs


Belladonna has all the traits of a proper lady. She has poise and isn't skittish, and cleans her plate down to the smallest morsel. She also has nice, plush, pure-white fur and clear ruby eyes, adding to her elegant vibe. Despite all this, Belladonna also has a mischievous streak and should not be taken lightly. She is smart, sharp and persistent. Boredom breakers are no match for her, and she has even been able to escape her cage once, right in front of her fosterer's eyes! As such, Belladonna requires a hamservant that will be able to give her as much attention and playtime as she desires (it's what she deserves!).

Belladonna, though tame, will still give a bite to warn you if she's feeling upset. Hence, her future hamservant is advised to watch her when being handled by other people or children, as she will make her discomfort known. Nevertheless, she is sweet and will climb all over your body like a playground during free roam.

She is also potty-trained, and pees exclusively in her sandbox. At night, she can almost always be found on her wheel, or climbing on top of her hideouts. She also enjoys the occasional burrow.

If you wish to cater to a lady's every whim and fancy, Belladonna's the one for you!


Requirements:

Cage - Belladonna is currently residing in an acrylic cage with a floor area of 4200cm², but still shows a need for a bigger space. Hence, adopters are recommended to get a cage that is bigger than her current one (e.g. 90/100cm x 50cm). Cages also need to be secure as Belladonna has escaped before!

Food - Belladonna has been fed Rodipet and Bunny Nature Expert without issues. She's not particularly picky, but doesn't like to finish her dried herbs.

Sand - any approved sand

Bedding - any approved bedding

Enrichment: At least 3 hideouts. Toys that allow her to climb (e.g. driftwood) are recommended.
