sudden rear leg paralysis, won't eat... worried

[remington]

My hedgehog remington recent lost feeling and movement in his rear legs. this happened overnight. He won't eat, he is still drinking water and peeing, he isn't pooping very much. I am going to make a vet appt for tuesday but wanted to know what this might be, he's about 3 years old. He takes a few minutes to "Wake up" when i pick him up, but then he seems happy just as he was...


here's a video of him today:

Goodness!!! My guess is as good as anyone's - sprain, break, neurological...
I hope his vet is able to figure it out quickly and that there's a good prognosis.
Sending hedgiehugs to you and Remington.
