Shio is a tiny little girl who came to her fosterer as one of the 3 siblings. (They’re named Ramen Brothers…that is Tonkotsu, Miso and Shio in order of weight) Shio was nicknamed as the Smol sis because…well, she was smol. So smol that she only weighed 15g when she arrived at the foster’s! Fast forward after 4 weeks, she’s now about double but still definitely the smol girl compared to her brothers! 

Despite looking so smol and sweet, Shio has the spiciest personality among the siblings. Don’t worry…this doesn’t mean she bites or attacks your finger. She doesn’t. Occasional playful nips can happen but they’re not the actual bites that hurt. Shio is also the most active on the wheel. She loves getting on the wheel every night, especially after the lights are off. You will also see her eat lots of food for her size, so the foster’s assumption is she burns all his calories on the wheels everyday hence she won’t get bigger (rounder.)

She also has tiny mood swings. Sometimes she will come hop onto your hand, and other times she will just scurry away. It’s just the Smol sis thing we don’t know why. 

Shio absolutely loves burrowing and would spend all daytime in her burrows, with occasional appearances outside for food or water.

She is a pure entertainment to watch and an absolute candy to your eye. This baby face will sure melt your heart as she shows her sweet little face and runs on the wheel with her tiny feet every night. Will you be her forever home and sayang this keychain sized smol girl as she deserves? 

(Requirements) standard HSS requirements. She is currently on FP standard mix + chef Dumbo’s minestrone as a main food plus daily fresh food + variety of treats. At times she is given BN Dwarf mix as well (but all the siblings prefer FP over BN)
