I realized the nails on my hedgehog feet are very long :S

you all use normal fingernail clipper to clip them off?
or those that use for cats and dogs?

is it normal for them to struggle to get out when bathing them?

I only cut once, then I just left the nails ever since.

You can use the normal fingernail clippers to cut the nails but watch out for the veins. Don't cut too short as it will injured the hedgie's toes.

Yes, they don't like water

will they come to you when u call them by the name?

Nah... they won't even bother you

My neck long long.... now weigh Donut, 364g liao.... hahaha.... awaiting for the big big day loh.

But Donut very funny,.... she likes to sleep in her litter box. I really hope she don't go and give birth in her litter box loh.

Maybe she choose the litter box to make her nest?

Dunno leh.... bought her a hide box... but she prefer the open air litter box... so much poo she also wanna sleep there. Damn funny wan, like those roasted pig pose.... but she is one sensitive hedgie, once I bring my cam near, she wakes up and spike up. Camera shy hahahah.

don't mention bout the soft soft poo poo when bathing them ? ...arghhh...
it doesn't poo now days when bathing time...but remembering the poo on my hand( when the first bath) DAMN...

Find someone to hold the hedgie when you want to cut the nails. It's very difficult to do it alone cos the hedgie tends to struggle and you might injure it accidentally.

I guess I'm going to start a new version
