I have the CSBwheel for my Pippin and he loves it. I cleaned his poopy boots last night and as always I inspect them and check the nail length etc and everything looked great. He ran last night as usual and then this morning I found him running more! (Not usual behavior) I have the litterbox lined with paper towel for this reason.................
When he finally stopped running and settled down I cleaned his wheel and changed the paper towel and I saw TINY little specks of blood. I am very sure that it is from his feet by the pattern on the paper towel. Are they silly enough to run too much and run their little pads raw? He probably ran this morning about an hour straight.........on top of all the running he does at night....
I obviously will keep track of this, just wanted to know see if it is within the relm of hedgehog behavior to "over" run?
Thanks. Kathy
