    What could this be?

    She's a funny one, that Kismet. I swear she does this just because she knows it will give her even more attention. When they're sick or hurt, I baby them even more than normal and I'm sure her train of thought went something like this: "Hmm. Now that I'm feeling better, how can I worry mom this...

    Hedgie Food

    Congratulations on your new baby! With my gang, I feed a mix of food as well, even though they pick through it for their obvious favorites. They eat CSFTCLS Light, Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Duck and Green Pea, and Royal Canin baby cat. Kismet eats only the Natural Balance (it's the...

    What could this be?

    I'm beginning to think that Kismet has a crush on the vet. This morning during medicine, I noticed that she had a spot on her back (smaller than the size of a dime) that looked rather red and blotchy, almost like a bruise that hadn't yet turned purple. I'm almost positive that it wasn't there...

    We're going to look at a house on Saturday!

    That would definitely be convenient then. If I was going to have a fireplace, I'd rather a wood stove. I love how those look.

    I don't like fireplaces.. I prefer outdoor fire pits. :)

    We're going to look at a house on Saturday!

    It does seem a bit odd, doesn't it? It's not a huge issue for Adam and I because we do the majority of our visiting in the kitchen, around a nice table. I can definitely see how it would be awkward. The house has a very different layout than most of the other houses we've ever seen.

    We're going to look at a house on Saturday!

    Good advice. I'm actually speaking to one girl who has a house by the same builder. It was built in 2002, and so far, she's had no issues. It was bought from the original owner, and her big gripe is the cupboards - she doesn't like light colored wood. I'm pretty sure Reid Built guarantees their...

    We're going to look at a house on Saturday!

    Exactly. We did some window shopping and right now, it costs just as much to buy an older 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house as it will to build a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom house. It's really weird. I like older communities, but the thought of having a brand new house that won't need a new roof, or...

    We're going to look at a house on Saturday!

    Adam and I have started looking at what the city has to offer in terms of houses, even though we're not really looking to buy until later this year or early next year. It never hurts to know what the market has, and the city offers some pretty decent incentives for first time home buyers. His...

    favorite things to bite

    Cuda's favorite chew toy is me. I give him stuffed toys, cat toys and blankies to play with.

    "Mom! Do you mind?"

    The vet and I finally caught each other. He just wanted to check on "our little girl" and see how she was healing. He seems pleased with her progress so far, but warned me to keep a close eye on her for any signs of discomfort or difficulty eating. If she starts having difficulties with her...

    "Mom! Do you mind?"

    Wonderful! She has absolutely no swelling in her face, no bruising and no blood. She has a teeny scab under her chin that doesn't seem to bother her, but I've just been leaving it alone. It's there for a reason, and it will fall off when it's ready. I've been checking her jaw every day for signs...

    Working with a 1 year old pissy Hedgie?

    It takes lots of patience, but a shy, grumpy hedgehog can definitely be won over. I have an old girl who came to me as a rescue. She was adopted by my fiance nearly 3 years ago, and when he moved to Edmonton, I took over her care. It was only recently that she decided I was safe, and would...

    "Mom! Do you mind?"

    How old is she? Kismet is a March 2007 baby. It could be possible, lol.

    "Mom! Do you mind?"

    I honestly thought that was Kismet at first... I was trying to figure out when I took and uploaded those pictures! LOL.

    Rinsing a hedgehog's mouth:

    Awesome, well we'll see how it works. She definitely loved it this morning.

    Rinsing a hedgehog's mouth:

    Good thing, because that's what she wanted to do. She loved the tea and while I don't know how much her mouth was rinsed... she had a good drink. Then she started running around and playing like I haven't seen in a while... even though the tea is caffeine free. I'll try to rinse again tonight...

    Rinsing a hedgehog's mouth:

    Kismet is the same way. I do have chamomile tea. The ingredients are: unbleached tea bag paper and chamomile flowers. Why did you use the tea? Is it have antiseptic properties or something? I figured I'd just gently put the tip of the syringe into the side of her mouth were the teeth were...
