But now there is a second scab under his chin! Does anyone know what this is? Thanks for any advice I appreciate...

    Hey there, I adopted Beau last Friday 1/15/21. He's about 10-11 months old and he's a rescue from a family who wasn't taking care of him. Their story for what happened to Beau is that they didn't know you were supposed to trim their nails, so his back nail grew into his paw and then they cut it...
  4. Rescue
    It's breaking my heart, but I've realized that it's best for me to rehome my baby, Daisy. I've had her for a little over a year. I got her at about a year old from a family who didn't really know how to properly care for hedgies. The only reason I took her from them was because she was so...
  5. Hedgehog Personality and Behaviour
    For a little background, I rescued my hedgehog when she was 2 years old. She was in a tiny cage with only an igloo and her food/water bowls with no heating.

    So I have a 4 year old hedgehog that I 'rescued' from someone I know. They simply didnt have time for it and were feeling very guilty about it.

    Hello! I took in a neglected hedgehog about 2 weeks ago. I was initially under the impression that the previous owner just didn't have time to spend with him, however it seems that he didn't have time to learn about or even care for the hedgehog. I know the basics about hedgehog care (I work...

  11. Hedgehog Personality and Behaviour
    I'm a new hedgehog owner, though I have babysat some hedgehogs before. I bought my dear Rupert from Kijiji. He was originally a rescue, and his last owner didn't have enough time to look after his needs and give him enough bonding time. As such, he's very huffy. I know this will take time and we...
  12. Rescue
    Hey guys, it breaks my heart to have to do this, but spud deserves better than what I am currently able to offer her. When I first got spud I was in a really fantastic place in every way possible (location, mental health, physical health) but then had to move away to college in southeast...
  13. Grooming
    I just got two new additions to the family (Yay!), from someone who didnt seem to take very good care of their hogs. The one girl is seemingly overweight, and her nails have curled under her toes. She is very grouchy, and wont allow me to access her feet at all. How can I go about this?
  14. Hedgehog Personality and Behaviour
    Hello, I recently adopted a hedgehog. He is only three months old, but he was a rescue. I want to give him lots of love and show him a good life, but I don't know where to start. He is very skiddish, and whenever he sees me he rolls up into a ball, and starts breathing really heavily. I was...
