Born: October, 2007

Gender: Female

Breed: Abyssinian Guinea Pig

Appearance: Snuggles is predominantly grey with a white band across her upper back. The coat is typically fairly harsh in texture and stands up in a number of "rosettes" of hair. She does look a bit like she is having a bad hair day, everyday! She does have massive bright black shiny eyes which give her an adorable cuteness.

Personality: As already mentioned timid would seem to be the predominant personality trait so far, but it is early days. Her visible and palpable trembling is still a bit heartbreaking to witness and we so look forward to her realising she can trust us completely and calming down a bit.

Favourite Food: She is too nervous to eat in front of us the moment so some food is disappearing but we can't say if it is Snuggles that has been eating it so we'll have to update on the favourite food once we have got to know her a bit better.

Habits: Snuggling! And trembling seem to be her main habits which is probably a good thing as she is otherwise rooted to the spot so if it wasn't for the trembling we might be wondering if she had actually died of fright ;-)

Naughtiest Moments: No naughty moments from this one so far but we'll keep you posted.
