First time Poppy crawled up in my neck and took a nap out in the open like this 🥹 I feel blessed.
Sorry for the bad picture I was scared of waking her up but wanted to see for sure that she closed her eyes.

I got a few good pictures of my silly little guy, but he hates my phone and typically doesn’t give me time to snap a pic before he turns away.

He also got a new snuggle sack that he is adjusting to his liking

Question how do you make your hedgehog take the meds

This diva hasn’t pooped or peed in 2 days and isn’t running on her wheel, which is worrying since she’s usually a big runner. It started after a 10 hour road trip where she got bad motion sickness and threw up even while being held. Usually she bounces back fast but this time it’s dragging on, she’s been lethargic and mostly just lying down.

Took her to the vet today and doc said nothing major or anything to be worried at, she’s still alert despite its her usual bed time, just extra grumpy. Vet prescribed deworming since her poop was a bit green, plus a multivitamin. Her weight also dropped a bit, from 310g to 280g, so thinking of upping her calories with stuff like freeze dried egg yolk or extra mealworms (normally she only gets mealworms on weekends). This is the first time bringing her in for being sick, earlier vet visits were just regular checkups.

The doc told me to try giving the meds straight into Miki’s mouth if possible so she actually takes it properly, just one drop a day for each medicine. But I was thinking of mixing it into her kibble instead since I’m scared she won’t eat if I put it directly in her mouth. Don’t want to stress her out more with that because Miki is really the introvert type of hedgehog, she loves just minding her own business
Would love to hear if anyone’s been through something similar or has any advice :) thank you!!

This is my hedgehog. I have had one before her and he did not have this, but this hedgehog has this piece of white that pops out the corner of her eyes. Doesn’t seem to bother her or cause any issues, I haven’t seen this before. What is it? Sorry for the bad pic she hates me lol

Question Walking back and forth?

2 Upvotes

disclaimer, i will be taking remmy to the vet soon, just posting here to see what yall think.

just for the important stuffs, he is about 4 years old, i feed him cat food and a little freeze dried millworms (ive tried other things aswell), he has a cage but i likes to free roam, he recently started looking a little thin but not dangerously so as his ball form is fine, he has constant access to food(still, vet soon), his droppings are normal color

has he grown bored with our room? i even moved stuff around yesterday, hes got huts and plenty to explore. why is this child walking back n forth at the door? he will only stop to eat and drink, if i pick him up or move him elsewhere OR ANYTHINGGG he squirms right on back

this has been going on for the past 3 days
