"The need for speed!"
Raffles
In 2013, I was visiting a pet shop and they were struggling to sell two albino hobs and one polecat. One of the hobs had bitten a member of staff, so I offered to help handle them in an attempt to tame them. I named them Raffles, Casper and Casper 2. After a few weeks they were destine for a rescue. I found Casper a new home, however, Raffles and Casper 2 were difficult to rehome as they had to be together. I had them neutered and microchipped and decided to see if they could be introduced to Rosie, Selene and Monty. After an initial ten minute battle, and a few weeks of Rosie hiding under the shower tray, Rosie liked Casper, Raffles hated Monty Moo Moo and Loki. Selene charged in and put them in their place, nightmare! No serious damage was done, however, Moo did inflict several puncture marks on the back of Raffles neck. Eventually, Raffles, Casper 2 settled in and rarely sleep, are constantly active, and cause cayos. They are also food focused so any time the treats his the floor, they come running! They love chicken and steal if from the others.
Raffles is a loveable hob and is Casper2's brother. He is a lovely, friendly boy who loves to run.
He is very fond of Sean and loves to groom his arms. He is very kissy and loves cuddles on the sofa while I have a coffee. He plays, chases and runs around the room with Casper 2 and rattles at the door to get attention.
