Profile

If Countach had a past life, he was definitely born and raised in a desert, because this fluffy little guy is obsessed with sand. He digs in it, rolls in it, naps in it, and if he could, he would probably write “home sweet home” in the sand with his tiny paws. His current favorite hideout is a little house placed right in the sand where he spends most of his time like a true desert nomad, like the Fremen in Frank Herbert's "Dune" universe.

When he is not busy living his best sand life, Countach is a food loving machine. He gobbles up everything from pine nuts to mealworms to vegetables. While he is not a huge fan of sprays, he will still nibble on them occasionally. Guess even desert dwellers have their picky days!

He is a little shy but super easy to find because he rarely changes hiding spots. If you need to check on him just look where you last saw him. He is probably still there plotting his next sand adventure...
