About Newt

Newt is a charming 3-year-old girl with a petite frame and a ridiculously short tail that adds to her adorableness. She's always on the move, eager to rub against you for pets and affection, making her a bit of a challenge to photograph. Her sweet chocolate chip nose is a standout feature, and she's thoroughly enjoying her new indoor life after being rescued.
