Chonking loves food, as evidenced by hername, and will quickly finish any and all treats given to her by her fosterer. Coming from the recent Bedok abandonment, she is a large-sized girl as compared to her peers and is slowly growing larger though she still shies away from hands if they come at her without food.

Chonking is not potty trained and will pee in specific hideouts daily as well as her wheel. She tends to use her sand more as a dining area, and any potential adopters would have to sift her sand regularly to prevent any bacterial buildup. She also prefers her flax and millet sprays, and will happily eat the entirety of her seed mix portion given to her daily.
