FABIO'S REVIEW

These little furry beasts are so cute!! You will see many signs stating that they are dangerous, they bite, don't feed them blah blah but how could such a funny creature bite? I didn't try to pet them (as I usually do, even with tigers, see the two Fluffy Beasts videos) but it was a feeding frenzy.
