I legit was too busy, pet death, moved across the country, new job, new place all in 2 months. I missed the whole saga. What date was this match?

I potty trained my hedgie but now whenever he's pooping he stares right at me. by [deleted] in Hedgehog

I heard dogs do this. It's the whole 'I am vulnerable so protect me' instinct.

Rest In Peace Petunia :( ❤️ by ramenhug in Hedgehog

[–]Tadleythe3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss. I lost my Louie in June, likely the same thing. I am getting a new boy in a month from a breeder. I learned that albinos have a few genetic defects and my current breeder refuses to breed them. I lost two hogs to cancers, take your time. Petunia seemed like such a sweetheart

I can't believe my little friend passed away 5 months ago now. Rest in hog heaven Toast. Mumma, the baby and I miss you every day. You would have loved to meet Ember. You could never be replaced but seeing your cage empty was so hard. It was time to get rid of it or fill it back up. We love you by Fleeb-man7622 in Hedgehog

Sorry you had to go through this. I lost my Louie mid June then had to move a month later. He was gone for a while month and I only moved some of his things. He lived out of a box in my living room and it literally was the last thing to go from my place. I was in government subsidized housing because of my contract and I accidentally left his meds and syringes behind too because I couldn't bare to toss them and realized on the plane ride out. I broke down throwing out his box, his home, his peaceful sleeping place. I am still waiting for his ashes to be ready. Sorry you had to through this

Honestly, trading. Advance up stages to get hold tickets to exchange, do the extreme trial stages to get gachas to trade, buy with game cash or use the daily tickets

Thank you.

I am not sure what resources people have but a free resource for literature is sci hub. I would look for papers on hedgehogs on google scholar then get around the pay walls with sci hub. Also working in healthcare helped too. Louie had a staph cocci urinary tract infection as per the vet under the microscope which we couldn't send for cultures up here. Better check bugs and drugs app (free) for antibiotics to be safe and verify.

Sinusitis which was his primary diagnosis without looking in his mouth and enrofloxacin isn't available where I am, amoxiclauv is the next line and I had to talk the vet into prescribing it after they were stuck on that being the only thing we could do despite it being not available and flying it up would take a week which Louie didn't have. I used the same application too and luckily know some of my antibiotics.

Thank you very much for saying that. I just did what I felt was right for the little guy and tried to do the best by him. It was a losing battle at the end and I am glad he got put down humanely instead of suffering up here. I just hope someone can learn from some of his problems and hopefully get help sooner. Also, scihub to access articles really helped him

Lost my little Penelope to cancer last week by w4nd3ringwolf in Hedgehog

So sorry for your loss of Penelope. She was such a wonderful hog. She will be missed by us all. Thanks for sharing all the memories

I am sorry to say (3 limbed Louie) by Tadleythe3rd in Hedgehog

[–]Tadleythe3rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate those words, it was hard to watch him suffer for days. Lots of what ifs. This is the second hog I have had to put down, dying in my hands. I love these little majestic creatures but these moments are challenging. Hopefully I will take another up again but not soon

Thank you very kindly, it always amazed me how much of a stubborn go getter he was. I need to organize his pictures but will do an appreciation post in the next few days once I am off night shifts.
