The Squatters

These furry squatters took up residency under my couch on May 6, 2020.

About Piglet

Piglet got his unfortunate name due to his greedy eating habits when he first arrived. He was so skinny and starving, so who can blame him?

Now he's turned into Prince Charming. He has a curious and playful personality. He loves to explore and loves to be held like a baby on his back and rocked to sleep.

About Helmut

Helmut is the fluffiest and the largest of the triplets. The orange markings on his head look kind of like a helmet and as a baby he had a cute little walk like a line-backer. His head was definitely bigger than his body for the first few weeks of his life. As he's gotten older, he's sprouted these long lanky legs that remind me of a baby deer. His new nickname is "Bambi."

About Indy

Indy had an eye infection when he arrived. After 3-weeks of intensive care while living with the vet, he is back home now. His eye is getting better every day.

Indy received a lot of care and attention with the vet and as a result he loves to cuddle and be held.

About Orangie aka "Julius"

Orangie, aka "Orange Julius" aka "Julius" got his name because...wait for it...he is the most orange of the triplets. Original I know! Orangie loves to play and wrestle with his siblings, but he is the most independent one. Sometimes I find him hiding away taking a nap on his own.

About Mohawk and Polk-a-dots

aka "Mo" aka "MoPo"

Mohawk and Polk-a-dots got his name because - yup you guessed it! He has a little white mohawk and 3 orange polk-a-dots. Mo was the scrappiest little runt when he arrived. He could take down his bigger brothers in a wrestling match! Mo always has the most thoughtful expression on his face and he likes belly rubs.

About Pumbaa & Timon

Pumbaa is a small, soft fluff-ball with a sweet personality. She loves to play and fills her day running around the apartment chasing her sister or her own tail. When it is time for a nap, she finds me and curls up on my lap for a good rest. Also, she is a purring machine. It takes hardly a scratch to get her going. She even purrs in her sleep. She must have sweet dreams.

Pumbaa is being fostered in a separate home with her sister Timon. They are looking for a home together.

Timon is a rocket of energy and curiosity. She loves exploring the apartment and playing with toys. When she isn't playing, she loves being near me and follows me around the apartment. She is the first to greet me in the mornings. During snuggle time she loves being scratched between the ears; it puts her to sleep in no time.
