Meet Rosie
Interesting Facts About Rosie...
Rosie and her sister Posey were born on October 19, 2021, here at Hot Cross Buns.
Their parents were Primrose and Little Boy Blue.
When the kits were four weeks old, their mother Primrose suddenly passed away, leaving us to hand-raise her babies. As a result, they are especially sweet and love to be cuddled.
Rosie is a solid squirrel doe.
She has had a bit more success in raising babies than Posey has.
She has a thick double-coat that needs lots of grooming, especially during a molt.
Rosie is a very attentive mama, but tends to become more laid-back as her babies grow.
We need to shave the fur on her tummy when she has babies so they can nurse more easily.
We tease Rosie and tell her she's wearing pantaloons because her fluff tapers down to her ankles very suddenly.
