  1. Fecal & Intestinal issues
    My 2 year old hedgie Mabel had a weird poo and pee tonight! Her poo has a small bit of mucus in it and has a greenish tone to it. It looks mostly brown, but some green is present. Also, she peed on my blanket and I noticed some white mucus stuff that I’ve never seen before. When I cleaned her...

    Hi all, My hedgehog Nellie is almost 4 and is still very active/loving/eating normally/nothing seems out of the ordinary other than the blood in urine. She has been to the vet 5 times in the past 2 months, & 3 different vets for differing opinions. She was first treated for a UTI, when that did...

    I posted a week or two ago because I thought my hedgehog, Chowder was dying. It seems to have been a hibernation attempt. He's doing better now. I have a CHE set up and a heating pad under his cage if the temp dips below 73. He has been eating and drinking on his own for several days. He is...

    My partner and I were given her cousin's hedgehog on Christmas 2015. We were told she was about a year old. The previous owners fed her dry cat food and despite our efforts she refused hedgehog food in favor of cat food. She started on meal worms but after we accidentally bought super worms...

    Hello fellow hedgie owners! My sweet girl, Q, has had a pretty crazy medical history. When she was 1.5 years old, she had bleeding in her urine and they gave her a hysterectomy. The results of her biopsy on the uterus were inconclusive, but indicated no cancer. While she was under, the...

    Hello, My Bip has had blood in her urine for about a week or so. It's not all blood, only some of it is bloody. When we took her to the vet, she went on the table and we collected a sample to be tested and also to have a culture taken. The blood came out right after she was done peeing, so...

    So to try and cut a very long story short my hedgie Lilly who is around 4 years old now (I've had her for a year) wasn't seeming herself; off food and no energy. Took her to vets who couldn't see anything wrong but gave antibiotics just in case. She seemed to perk up and at least eat again. A...

    I have a 2-yr old male albino hedgehog who loves to eat. The problem is his urine smells foul. I've have him on Royal Canin and he was great but then slowly I noticed his domain started to stink. I bathed him, scrubbed his cage, cleaned his wheel and litter box. And every time he was on the...

    So recently Maximus' unripe has begun to smell quite bad. I'm feeding him Royal Canin sensitive diet cat food. He loves it and has had no issue with it for almost 8 months. But over the past month or two I've noticed he has very stinky pee. I think it may be the fish oils in the ingredient list...

    My hedgehog, Hermione, is almost 6 years old. about a month ago, I took her to the vet after noticing heavy bleeding. I wasn't sure of the source at the time, but after she was observed, it was concluded that the blood resided in her urine. I opted to have her put under, while the vet did...

    I had Venera out on the bed when she decided that she needed to pee. No big deal, sheets can be washed and mattresses can be scrubbed. After she peed (I'm not sure of the color because it was on blue patterened sheets) I lifted her up and she was dripping white, frothy, foamy stuff. I haven't...

    Hi. I was wondering if anyone has experienced this before or has any suggestions. Gretta is aprox 2 years old. She hasn't really had any health problems before. Over the past month or so, I've noticed that her urine has a much stronger smell than it did before. Both my hedgies have...

    Nina did fall about a week ago. She was eating/drinking like normal and no more grouchy than normal. Two days after I noticed that their was a small bit of blood in her poop but I figured that was a bit of constipation that she had. There was no more blood in her poop for a few days and...
  14. Bleeding, Male
    So just right now I took Teddy out for a cuddle and I noticed his bag had a bit of red on it, so I of course checked him out and sure enough there was the smallest bit of blood staining around his private parts... I don't know what to do as it's almost 11 pm, I'm making him a vet appointment...
  15. Bleeding, Female
    Hello my fellow hedgie parents, Pipka is getting worse and worse each day, she keeps having quite a bit of appetite, but now there is not only blood in her urine (I noticed on December 23) but I found blood stains in her sleeping bag, wheel, and her fleece blanket I use instead of aspen...
  16. Bleeding, Female
    My boyfriend just recently got a rescue hedgehog this summer. She is estimated to be about 2 years old, but her background is relatively unknown except that her owners before us neglected her (wrong food, unclean environment, never clipped her nails, rarely had physical contact/affection). We...
