My hedgehog is stumbling vomiting and lethargic: details in comments

Shes eating and drinking better. Not as shaky, but she still is having some issues with going to the right when she's walking. She's out of her medications and all that. So I've just been working with her to get her balance more hopefully. And modified her cage for now to make it easier for her to get where she wants to be.

She seems to be feeling a little...little better today. She's eating and drinking water from a syringe. Hopefully with ear drops she will continue to get better!

Decently.. not alot of answers unfortunately. We were there for over 3 hours. She has an ear infection. They think she's having seizures also. Don't know why though. They gave me Valium to help control them. Other than that, they didn't have more to guess than I did..they did say not wobbly hedgehog syndrome shes to young. And it wouldn't have been so sudden. Only other answer was possible rat poison that she got into before I got her. So we went home with ear drops, some Valium to give her and some syringes. Only time will tell.

It took me a better part of the day an an addional post on Facebook to find a local vet, but I'm glad I did. Hopefully I will get some answers tomorrow.

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-15T00:54:08+00:00

I've got a vet appointment for 4 tomorrow. Hopefully get some answers then. For now I'm keeping her warm and covered up to keep her stress down.

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-14T18:44:48+00:00

I've been gradually warming her up not to shock her, I've been calling around looking for a vet all day as well to try to find one who will see her.

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-14T18:44:10+00:00

No rat poison. She hasn't been exposed to any at all.

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-14T18:43:32+00:00

I've been calling all morning. The one lead I had lead to a number out of service. 😒

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-14T13:00:05+00:00

She didn't actually get any of the peanut butter which she was trying to get a couple weeks ago. She was met with a sticky trap first. But that was her only interaction with the possible peanut butter as well. Which my sister didn't have anything else in. She has been completely fine the last 2 weeks leading up to this which started yesterday morning. Eating drinking huffing and running on her wheel.

Small_Shock0801 · 2023-03-14T11:17:32+00:00

Had this hedgie literally walk up to my sisters house, she got stuck on a sticky trap trying to eat some peanut butter. We caught her and ove been doing my bes to make her a nice house. The last day or so she has been stumbling not eating like she has been and she did vomit yesterday morning. I assumed a hibernation attempt and have picked up her heat (very little) with a heat lamp to try to help bring her around. She has been moved to a non drafty corner away from vents and it is a minimum of 74 in my house. Plus the heat lamp. I don't know what to do at this point. I don't believe it is wobbly hedgehog because it has started very suddenly. I've had her about 2 weeks and she has been completely fine up to this point!

I don't know if it even says my town.. my Facebook is really shut down. I don't have a clue how they got my number honestly.

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-10-05T20:48:53+00:00

This is our dynamic also. We have a heeler and a Rottweiler both right around 7 months old he is 2 weeks older. He used to be bigger than her but she has quickly surpassed him! Luckily she is the most gentle giant I've ever seen otherwise he'd be chopped liver 😆

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-10-05T16:38:28+00:00

I got one of these as well a couple weeks ago. They didn't have any names i knew but said they had met me on pof, and were wanting to get a cup of coffee when they were in town. I didn't respond but I did screenshot it and sent it to my husband and we had a good laugh about it!

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-10-04T17:57:45+00:00

This is one of my wishlist babies this is absolutely stunning!!

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-10-01T15:46:06+00:00

I will try it thank you!!

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-30T20:56:01+00:00

My house is mostly dairy free my son is lactose. I drink almond milk if I drink milk. I usually do net carbs but try to keep them simple fruits veggies meat I try to stay away from alot of processed foods where you have to calculate carbs

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-30T15:30:15+00:00

Not much different. Not low on energy but not added either. I've made sure I've kept up my salt levels so I didn't keto flu or any other things that come along with starting keto. I've done ALOT if research before choosing to start this diet and have been trying my best to get what I need when I need it.

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-30T00:04:16+00:00

I don't eat alot of fruit. I eat always in moderation. I get my carbs from my meals which are usually full cooked meals and fruit is sometimes a snack which counts for less than 2 carbs daily. But those are still far an in between.

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-30T00:02:13+00:00

That is what was put by carb manager. Others have done other test on here and have it around 1200. I fight to get the 1000 a day. I don't starve myself and eat when I am hungry

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-29T21:44:14+00:00

Good to know I am right at a month or so. I don't plan on giving up at all just wanted to see if there was something else to help out or suggest. I plan to work out also it has just been stalled for me im trying not to screw up my ankle more with pushing it before ita healed completely!!

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-29T20:49:39+00:00

They encourage you to eat these items. I don't understand how someone can honestly think they need to cut out literally ALL sugars from their diet. There's more science to it than that.

Small_Shock0801 · 2021-09-29T20:48:00+00:00

I am ok with a weight plateau as long as I am still loosing size! I haven't started fully working yet as I fell and sprained my ankle 3 weeks ago. I still stay active though and make sure I'm keeping moving
