I know when mom opens his cage, she's very sneaky and I don't hear the door open, but I do hear him when he starts to huff and puff. He doesn't curl up in a ball to much anymore though, He's not scared prickly anymore. He's quite offensive and uses his quills to attack mom. He sees her skin...

I have to agree with Alicyn. If this is a wild animal, it needs to be released back into the area where it was taken. Baby turtles hatch and live without a mother. If its eyes are sealed shut, then it is likely sick, take it to a veterinarian, or seek a rehabber for help. But if it is a...

Mom just doesn't understand, she insists that she needs to spend time with him. Mom even took pictures of him! I sneaked onto her computer and found them. See look, here is a cute foot, and one of him! - Tylda

Eulalia looks great. She's one special little gal.

Renee, you should be able to find someone that will do a private cremation. I have had every hedgehog I've said good bye to privately cremated. All but the first three have come to me in keepsake urns. The first 3 were returned to me in boxes big enough for cats. Ask your vet if they have...

Mom told us that you were going through something called hedgehog withdrawal. I told her we have too many here, and told her we could send you Ollie. She said Ollie has problems and that wouldn't be fair to you. So I guess he has to stay here... But. I don't like him. Mom spends time with...

The worst I had was a recurring dream when we lived in an apartment. The apartment backed up to a park that was heavily wooded. I was on the first floor. The dream was that I came home from work and discovered the apartment broken into. The perp had busted out the window in my...

Some say mites are species specific, others say they can be transferred. I'd suggest talking to your vet tomorrow about it. Perhaps get some revolution for the dog as well as a precaution.

Ah ok, I misread. I'd give a quick bath to help him feel better tonight, it won't wash them all away though. Those little guys are insistent on staying on our quilled kids. Just be insistent tomorrow that he needs Revolution. I've never had one argue with me, but I've heard stories of some...

If he has had a bath tonight, you have likely knocked some of the mites off already. I wouldn't want to stress him too much more tonight, so if he were mine, I'd let him be for the evening, and get him in to see a veterinarian tomorrow. Ask for Revolution and then start cleaning his cage...

I think it means we need to find you a baby ;)

You are very welcome. I told Bryan I "needed" to know as I just wasn't seeing cinnicot, she looks a couple of shades lighter than Tylda (an algerian dark eyed cinnicot) Which was confirmed when he told me champagne :)

So... I bugged Bryan tonight about it because I really wanted to know. I thought she was too light to be a cottie and she is. Bryan's official response is she is an Algerian Champagne. Which is one shade lighter than a cinnicot. Pretty little hedgehog and a lovely color indeed. I...

Welcome to the forum. Oh there is way too much advice to just post here. Go to the hedgehog section and post another thread to tell us a little about your cage setup and care plans. It will help us help you.

Kailey, send a PM to Bryan on HHC (that is his user name). Bryan is the owner of HHC, he is also the guy who developed the color chart. He is the expert. Send him a link to the photos and ask him for a definitive answer. If he doesn't reply to you, tell me. I'll ask him the next time I chat...

Posts after my gentle request to get this back on topic have been removed. This is an emergency thread, for which we have not seen that the problem has resolved. This is not the place to continue arguing whether or not private conversations are better or not. I'd suggest taking it to another...

Sadly, without a necropsy, it is impossible for us to really know what happened. Lethargy could have been that she had gotten a chill or she could have been very sick.

OK folks enough of the off topic debate. I'm certain Mary didn't start this thread wanting to start a debate, and I'm certain she really doesn't want to read it. This is a thread that was started to help a chinchilla, who the last update we had was still needing help. How about we concentrate...

Ah yes. Thanks, I couldn't remember who I was told was judging. It can be tough in new crowds. If I go, I have been known to seek out those that are sitting quietly to get them into the crowd. We do need more shows. I was trying to put one together in MI but it went by the wayside. If...

Who judged the morning? I'm totally blanking on the am judge, but I know Elaine was doing her first judging (I think it was her first) in the afternoon.
