Despite acting as a vegetarian that avoided mealworms when he first arrived at his fosterer’s home, Hoji has now unleashed his inner fat demon that demolishes anything edible.

Hoji used to nibble when he was picked up but he is now a sweet little stress ball. Hoji is perfectly fine with touch now and does not hurt a soul. He is extremely food motivated and waddles over to you while standing on his hind legs for treats. Hoji can be tamed with ease with one simple trick. Give him a mealworm and bro would let you do anything to him (be it head pats, carrying him up or having him sit on your palm peacefully while eating). When Hoji eats, man is in his own world. Although he has yet to become an absolute chonk, Hoji is on his way there with a steady progress of more than 10g gained ever since he was rescued.

Hoji is semi potty trained (it is a real hit or miss situation). He pees in his sand bath only when he wants to so his fosterer still has to clean up after his dirty mess especially in the areas that he sleeps in. 

If you want to have a cute little stress ball that has the potential to become a basketball, adopt this greedy little pig.
