Sweet as candy and twice as charming — meet Tootsie!

Tootsie is a lively little boy with a big personality packed into a tiny body. He was found abandoned with his mom and sister at a local animal shelter, but you would never guess his rough start by the way he lights up the room with his energy and adorable squeaks.

This little guy loves playtime and is always eager to show off how fast he can zoom around. His wheeks and whistles are absolutely precious, especially when he hears footsteps nearby — that’s his way of politely (and sometimes not so politely!) reminding you that he’s ready for attention or a tasty treat.

Tootsie is a big fan of fresh veggies and happily dives into his hay piles for tunneling, munching, and cozy naps. He currently enjoys having his own space, but with slow and proper introductions, he may be open to a guinea pig friend. Otherwise, he’s perfectly content being your happy little bachelor.

About Me: Hello!!! My name is Tootsie, and I’m as sweet as my name sounds! I may have had a rocky start, but I’m ready for a fresh beginning filled with love, veggies, and lots of attention. I’ll definitely let you know when it’s snack time (because veggies are YUM!).

Whether I become your one-and-only little buddy or eventually share space with a new friend, I promise to bring personality, entertainment, and plenty of adorable squeaks into your home.

I can’t wait to meet you and become your new best friend!

What happens next

  1. Contact Mending Spirits Animal Rescue using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Mending Spirits Animal Rescue, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the small pets care guide so you arrive prepared.
