Yeah, as much as I love PA, I gotta admit that it is one of the most ridiculous states. Some of the rules/laws just don't make sense, whether it's pets or education or anything. I spoke to my district's senator (who is also on the appropriations board) and it seems unlikely that HB 1398 will...

You can keep up with the bill's activity here <http://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/billInfo/billInfo.cfm?sYear=2011&sInd=0&body=H&type=B&bn=1398>. You can also find your legislators by using the search box in the top right corner on that page, so you can write to them regarding your opinions on...

Oh, yes, she can curl up tight. Hissing and curling in a ball are kinda her thing. ;) I wish there was a forum on what food to use specifically for weight loss. I don't want her to get fatty liver disease. BUT, she is 4, so I worry about her as she gets older and just want her to be happy and...

When I took Maserati to the vet for her most recent check-up, the vet said she weights 550 g and is overweight. She has a large cage (2'x4') with a dig box, tunnels, stuffed animals to play with, and a wheel. She is 4 years old now and doesn't use her wheel as much as she used to, but she still...

Aww! What a cutie! Congrats! :hearts:

Hey everyone! It's been awhile, so I hope everyone and your hedgies are doing well! Anyway, I'm looking into flying to my Thanksgiving destination, but so far I can't find any airlines that will accept any animals besides dogs, cats, and some birds, but I really want to take Maserati with me...

Amazon is selling the Boat Ride Sketchbook by Eeboo that has a hedgehog and a frog in a boat on the cover. It is $8, measures 7x9, and has 60 pages of white paper. :)

What a cutie! I love the pic with her little tongue licking the arm! You'll have to keep us updated on what you decide for her name. :cute:

Congrats on your new baby! Can't wait to see more pictures! :cute:

I love Cinnabun's markings! She's so cute! I'm sure she will figure out the wheel soon enough. Maserati is a huge fan of the belly crawl and trying to squeeze through small spaces, and the smaller the better! I think hedgies just love a good squeeze and burrow every now and then. At least she's...

When the nails start curling under, you need to clip them. You don't want to let them get too long because then the nails are more likely to get caught on things and could hurt the hedgie. And, yes, it is pretty normal for younger hedgies to "go potty" more often. It should get better as he gets...

Hedgies are pretty good climbers.... I would say at least 8-10 inches. I even had one climb out of a laundry basket once, so the higher the better! Good luck with your cage! :cute:

I LOVE the cage! It is so cute and roomy.... your hedgie will be so happy! Regarding your question about a digging box.... I have one for my hedgie and she loves it! I made it from a rectangle Tupperware container and cut a semicircle out big enough for her to walk through. It was pretty easy...

That's so cute! Squee looks like quite a character! :cute:

Poor Thistle! I'm glad to hear she's doing so well! She's adorable, and I hope everything continues to go well for both of you! :cute:

Thank you! I just got off the phone with her vet, and he said she did really well with the surgery. It was uterine, so she just needed the spay and she will be fine. He checked out the rest of her organs and they all look good. I get to pick her up later today! I'm so relieved that my sweet girl...

Akron Area, OH I took my hedgehog to Dr. Selig at Barberton, which is part of Metropolitan and he was very friendly and knowledgeable! They were able to fit me in quickly and had reasonable prices, especially considering that they specialize in exotics. Metro also has 24/7 emergency services. I...

Well, the vet gassed her and did a complete exam today and felt a mass, so they will do surgery on Friday morning. He said it is either on her uterus or in her bladder, so I'm REALLY hoping that it's uterine since it is a simpler and safer fix. I feel much more comfortable with this vet than the...

What a cutie! Her little face looks perfect for kissing! :kiss:

Okay! We have an appointment to see another vet tomorrow afternoon who is more experienced in exotics and I made sure to tell them I wanted a urine sample done before I even made the appointment. I will be sure to ask about Hills C/D when I'm there.... I'm pretty sure it's prescription, and you...
