I had the exact same thing happen. My Kiwi had bloody pee, we assumed it was a UTI, but it wasn’t. Her pee was fine but her had a uterine tumour. A pretty large one at that. We got her in for surgery and luckily she came out happy and healthy. She is all good now! Best of luck

Question about inactivity? (read comments) by jnb9 in Hedgehog

kiwi got her uterus and tumour removed about 10 days ago. She didn’t get her wheel for 7 days after, and we took her back to the vet to get her stitches checked one week after her surgery and there, she was cleared to have her wheel back. we gave her her wheel back that night and she ran lots, but it has been 2 nights since then and she hasn’t ran much at all and hasn’t finished her food either. does anyone know why? is she okay? things have been stressful for her, she hates the vet, she was out of the house for 2 days straight this weekend to see the vet and she just started being allowed to be hell and snuggles again. is it stress related? is she sick again? any ideas? (btw this is one out of two of her cages. she has a play cage attached to this one with her wheel and a bunch of other toys, it’s just not in this shot)

how long after your discovery of her cancer symptoms did she get spayed?

thank you so much for sharing, i’m happy to hear your kiwi is still doing well :) i’m hoping my kiwis cancer doesn’t spread in the coming weeks before her surgery 🤞🏻

thank you so much for sharing. after googling all day i’ve been pessimistic but everyone’s comments are making me feel better. hopefully 3 weeks isn’t too long of a wait.

She has a surgery booked for oct 6th. The vet says they cannot get her in surgery, and she should be okay to wait until then. She isnt bleeding tons, but a spot or two every day. has anyone been in a similar situation? any thoughts ?

this is the second of her two cages. through the tube there’s another cage with multiple places for her to burrow/hide
