Meet Hippo, a gentle and well-mannered sweetheart!
Hippo has soft, expressive eyes and a sweet, wiggly body that are sure to draw you in. One of our favorite things about Hippo is how beautifully she bonds with people. She warms up quickly with a little patience, and once she does, her personality shines.
She even knows exactly how to position her body to get the best pets, leaning back into you and pointing her head toward the sky with a big, joyful smile. Hippo is also wonderfully polite and tidy — she has kept her space spotless with zero potty accidents.
As for hobbies, Hippo enjoys leaning into pets, snacking on treats and playing fetch with her favorite squeezy toys. She’ll happily nudge herself against you to soak in a deeper cuddle! Walk time fills her with excitement, her tail wagging wildly the moment she hears her leash come off the hook. She loves exploring the world with her people!
