Nemo is a smol and hamsum boi who is finding his footing in a big big world. He enjoys darting around his sandpit, leaving his tiny little footprints in the sand and squishing himself in the tiniest openings available. Do not be surprised if you have some difficulty locating him in his cage, just look for the tightest and most unassuming gap in between hideouts – it is likely you will see a doe-eyed little man looking up at you.

Before Nemo embarks on any adventure, you can see him trying to analyse the situation as he lifts his left paw up and sniffs around which makes for adorable pictures. Nemo is confident enough to climb on top of several of the larger hideouts in his cage to explore. Due to his small stature and his penchant for squeezing into tight spots, you can often see him diving nose first and wiggling his little bottom at you!

Nemo would thrive in a loving and gentle home and under the care of a family who is willing to take things slow with him.

If you think you can be the Dory to this little Nemo, he would love to hear from you :-)
