my yard camera has picked up this little sweetie. Hard to tell how small she is. She drinks water from the dish but doesn’t eat. I leave fruit and veggies out for the critters if they’re about to go bad but she’s not interested. She spends a lot of time sitting and pondering & doesn’t go far from her home under our deck. I have not seen mama in weeks. She used to come by with a belly full of babies & I assume this is one of them. I just want her to be okay as it seems she isn’t eating & is quite small.

My sweetie Chica comes to visit every day. She is so gentle & sweet & she has started to eat from my hand. Friends and family constantly tell me to stop out of fear I will contract a disease. Upon googling, disease seems uncommon but wanted to get some perspective from others who share the love for these little guys
