Nutmeg is Saffron and Fudge's sister. She was always the smallest as a youngster but has developed into an elegant and perfectly formed (in my opinion anyway!) girl. Nutmeg can be pretty timid and has to be left to get used to something or somebody new in her own time or she panics and runs and hides in the cage. Once she gets used to you, she is happy to clamber about on you though. When she was 3 - 4 weeks old she fell off of my hand and disappeared under a chest of drawers. It took me ages to catch her, eventually leaving one of their houses on the floor for her to get into. When I picked her up I fully expected her to be terrified but she climbed straight out and up my arm.
