Have you seen a more chipmunk like face? This little baby, aptly named ‘Chip’ from the iconic duo of ‘Chip and Dale’ has the cutest eyes and tiny nose resembling that of a chipmunk! 

Chip is crazy for proteins and loves running on his wheel. Born a strong and determined athlete, he was able to push a 21cm wheel at 4 weeks old. The only thing he loves more than his wheel and proteins is his toilet paper tube! Chip doesn’t seem to love ceramic hideouts and prefers toilet paper tubes, cardboard boxes and homemade accessories. As he came from a tiny cage with barely any hides, this precious baby seems to prefer tubes to any hides just because that’s where he spent his toddler days with his mama and siblings. 

When Chip first came, he was very vocal about his dislike of sudden movements, unfamiliar scents and human presence. Over the weeks, he has grown used to human presence and is able to climb onto his fosterer’s hands for food. Chip will do well in a patient and loving home, willing to let him be tamed at his own pace. If you are lucky, Chip may even sing for you in his sleep (he did so once!). Are you ready to give Chip all you love and protection? 

Note: Fatpouches as main diet is preferred. Loves toilet rolls, cardboard boxes
