This baby girl is currently being hand fed because her mother died the day after she was born. No surviving siblings either. We're trying to get her up to speed with hand feeding and she's growing pretty well!

We're housing her with an elderly female who seems to be ok with her being around.

Does she have any other buddies besides your puppies?

Not the same age no. But we have almost 30 guinea pigs, so she currently shares a cage together with a very chilled adult female who doesn't mind her. We've tried with a few who were scared of her! But this seems to work for now
