I'm so sad.....
Mika passed away last night...
I have no idea what is wrong as well...
i just took her to see Dr Jenny on the 27th Last month.
n yesterday when i got home at 10...she already dead...
died in her sleep
sleeping peacefully...
i'm so sad...

So sorry to hear tat..

Did you check her body? Any mark or injury?

No injuries, no nothing...
i knew she was sick
that's y i took her to Dr Jenny....
but no signs that it's that severe....

then could be internal problem..erm erm.. pneunomia? It's fatal disease if not treated immediately.

Dr Jenny got look after for hedgehog?
My hedgehog getting problem, I don't know is it same as you jitshiong,
My hedgehog early get leg injured, bleeding... and feel like it hard to getting up when fall to 1 side, until now his totally cure for that injured but it still like to fall to 1 side and hard to getting up, now feeling it look like weak and skinny....
Any sick for hedgehog is look like this? My hedgehog eat not so well, sometime eat sometime won't like normal, I just add calcium powder to boost up I scare is the bone problem.

How much calcium powder u feed oh??

Overdose is not a good thing though.

how much, hmm just very very little, because I also scare over it,
I just feed it on morning 1 time.
Maybe I just feed together with mealworm ( because my Bo Chai can directly eat mealworm, RC not really direct eat, just need to wait.)

My Mika isn't showing the same symptoms as urs.
SHe drops her quills n lose weight...
next i know, she's gone...

OK thank you jitshiong about the info, I really need to Gambateh on hedgehog, now always let him walk walk around to train for him, if he don't walk is just stop it and let it rest.... sometime walk very long time non stop there....

hey.. better go check... not sure if it is symptom of Wobbly disease... check out my previous posts... i got put links to youtube.. someone's hedgehog has such a problem... but quite depressing to watch it..

Sorry to hear that mika passed away...
my sympathy to you...

sorry to hear that. dr jenny didn't have anything to say at all about the quills shedding?

jitshiong, sorry to hear what happened to Mika... do take care.

Yesterday I bring my Bo Chai for Dr Jenny check, although Bo Chai look like WHS case but Dr Jenny not 100% confirm that, and Dr Jenny say is look vein & joint problem, because Bo Chai early left leg get injured, although the wound is recover, but Dr Jenny say maybe those bacteria will infect until vein or joint.

Dr Jenny got check out that left leg and feel the joint a bit hard, so we try to cure it, lucky Bo Chai still eat those medic .

Dr Jenny give me a suggestion that reduce for giving any dry cat food, if over having the cat food it will hurt the vein and joint for long time. Now I try to feed mealworm more that cat food.

Anyone here just feed hedgehog for insect food?

Hmm just figured out..... Is it hedgehog diet also can make some blend mix food to replace those cat food ????
