Perhaps due to living in a cramped cage before he was rescued, he may have gotten himself injured in a fight - resulting in a floppy right ear. It doesn't hamper his movement / behaviour though, and instead results in some really cute photo moments! (Refer to fosterer's instagram!)

Riff has one thing that he really loves to do (if you haven't noticed already) - burrowing. From the moment he appeared in the foster home, he started exploring and digging through the different bedding, so you'll probably expect to see his bedding shifting around a lot. Give him tons of bedding and he'll be a happy ham!

He's also not shy, and more curious than anything. He'll almost always explore your hand when you put it in gently beside him. (Do give him treats to show him your love!) Despite his namesake, he is a quiet, gentle boy that may nibble your hand gently to be more familiar with you.


Finally, Riff has been noticed to appear multiple times throughout the day (although a bit sleepy) to explore his cage, and do a little foraging of his sprays/bedding toppers. This means that you may get to see him in action when you're stuck at home studying or WFH. Just be careful not to make too much noise around his cage!
