Try and get this from your nearest vet:



apply everyday on the bald spot and wash him up with a cat/dogs medicated mild shampoo. He'll be okay within a week.

Soooooo.. i bathed demon and he didnt enjoy it

What i did was i filled a container with about 1 inch of warm water and slowly lower him into it, he freaked out and kept trying to get out ,eventually he got out and once he figured out how to get out there was no keeping him in.

So i tried the sink, he couldnt get out of course but he was trying to climb the sloping side so frantically that he tipped over backwards he was ok but i got worried so i took him out

In the end i just let him wander on the bathroom floor and followed him around slowly pouring water over him bit by bit from a small bucket

then i wrapped him in one of his liners and put him on the bed till he was dry and put him back in his house, poor guy

so yes, i probably need a container with higher sides

i also noticed he smelled like alot like a wet dog before he dried

agreed!!!
my baby also gave same reaction... -.-'
try to climb out from the small container i used to bathed him...
but when I dried him and try to give some massage to make him relax.. he.... DAMN relax!!! lol
I massaged till he wanna closed his eyes n sleep d... but when I stopped.. he opened his eyes... hehe

help...my new hedgie is afraid of me
i let her smell my hand before i touch her but she still jumps...like got lil bit hiss...i dunno how to touch her now....sob sob....

it takes time to bond

hiss?? mine not hiss... but trying to poke me whenever I tried to touch him lol
but I tried to let him sniff my hands and he let me touch plus hold him on 2nd day? or 3rd day? hehe

ur hedgie is a she? good!! post some picture of her....
will post mine again... cuz he's fat now.... and gonna give him diet...

just bought a wheel for him... I tried to put him on the wheel to make him play it...
but what he did is.. only sniff sniff.. and when I came back.. he's laying on the other side..

Lol..don't worry, soon enough,all you got to do is enjoy your sleep and wake up in the morning for cleaning the wheel..

I thinking to own hedgehog but not now bcos i didnt have time to take care or it!

omg...i dunno how to upload pic in here ler....

Giv a few days for your new hedgie to settle into her new environment. She'll be okay in the next few days.

errr... normally i upload pics using imageshack.us
after that I copy the direct link to pic here wif IMG tag... ^.^
u can try it if u want...

Cimredopyh, when i give my Bo Chai bath also be like that, try to climb out, but after long time, when i brush his quills, he will stop at there let you brush it, sometime call him turn left turn right ( although he won't turn to what i want, but just give some noise let him now I'm still there, if not he will think no 1 there and try move away.)
The smell is come from belly there, try rub rub your hedgehog belly by using hand when give your hedgehog bath . Not 100% those smell will gone but at least can low down the smell abit.

Ohh i see, isnt that where his boy bits are?

Muchan, when he figures out how to play with the wheel there will be plenty of 'evidence' in the morning


Lil'Maine dont worry, its normal for your hedgie to be afraid in the beggining. Be patient with her and she will come to trust you After you let her smell your hand, try to slowly touch her from the side or front so she can see your hand, avoid surprising her from the back. If you want to pick her up try slowly scooping her up with one hand on each side (like scooping water) as you bring your hands together she will eventually step on your hands. You can even pick her up this way when shes all spiky
whatever you do dont use glove to pick her up as she needs to get used to your smell

Speaking of smell i notice Demon is happier to see/smell me when i just come home from work and play with him straight away but hes cautious of me when i play with him after i bathe. I think he does not like the smell of my shower gel

Have you named her yet?

When let hedgehog smell your hand, sometime they will lick
After lick awhile............ BITE !!!

Food smell on the hands

haha....ok ok ...thanks for the advice...i name her Gie Gie...
here are some pics

peek-a-boo

Rubbing noses with each other
