Hi, my name is Danielle. I just purchased my little man Oscar (hedgie) the first week in January. I am absolutely in love with him! He can be cranky at times, especially since he just started his last stage of quilling but mostly he is just a ball of love! I purchased him from a local pet store, which I probably won't do again because he ended up vey sick witin a day of bringing him home. After taking him to the vet, my bf and I found out another little hedgie had been brought in from he same place with an upper respiratory infection as well. I don't want to publically list the pet store but if anyone is curious drop me an email.

He is my first hedgehog, so I am so glad my vet recommended this sight!
 
Welcome to the forum. They certainly can get really cranky when they are quilling.
 
Hi and welcome!

Gosh, what an introduction to the world of hedgehogs... A little fella with an upper respiratory infection. Sure hope he's feeling better these days.

Hi and welcome! Did you go back to the petstore and inform them of yours and the other hedgie's illness? I'm sorry your little guy got sick, but it sounds like you adopted him just in time to get him back to health and to spoil him rotten! Have fun with your hedgie...I'm envious!
 
Thank you everyone for the warm welcomes! Jersey Represent! Hahaha.

@Jenn-I did, and they said that he did not get anything from being in the pet store, and that it must have been when I brought him home, and they offered a refund or an exchange. Which is absolutely ridiculous, I would NEVER just return or exchange him! And I'm sure they know that. He is so spoiled, my bf jokes that I love him more! He is nothing but a joy, and I am so grateful that he is 100% healthy now!
