This blog will be all about MY Akali (the hedgehog) and then some.
Well, I thought that I should take Digby to the vet before we moved for a general check-up to make sure that everything was shipshape. I found a clinic that sees exotic animals, Pet Care Veterinary Hospital (http://www.petcarevb.com/) in Virginia Beach, which is only about 15 minutes from me.
Finally got that Carolina Storm Wheel. It was MUCH bigger than I thought it’d be. Let’s hope for a quiet night after a month of her racket.
Upon taking her out of her cage this morning, I found her right hind foot had become black and hard. Something, either hair or fabric, had become tangled around the foot, cutting off circulation and making the food ‘dead’ in blunt terms. Being taken to a vet clinic in London, they allowed the dead foot to come off and amputate the reveling bone left behind by the dead foot. Everything is stitched up now, she’s hobbling around on her stub and loving being pampered. Long day today, but as the vet said, she’s a champ.♥
That’s terrible :( Hope she heals fast <3
I went out and bought her an actual bed. She was very confused on how to use it at first, she thought she was supposed to sleep under it. Lol.
never said he was all together in the head…notice the ramp right next to him
what in the fucking hell? okayyyy, um are you not aware that hedgehogs don’t have very good eyesight or fucking depth perception? They tend to not recognize that that is a ledge, and that they could potentially get hurt, mainly because in the a natural setting, they are not man-made fucking ramps leading up to a raised area that is not closed off like it should be. Anyone who’s properly researched hedgehogs would know that. Also, I love how instead of helping him, you fucking watch him fall then call him a ding dong, real cool there. Looks like you certainly deserve a pet. Nevermind that he could hurt himself, it’s just a “cute” fucking video to post on tumblr so you’ll get tons of reblogs about people telling you how cute your hedgehog is. Well sorry, you’re a twat and that hedgehog needs to be taken away from you. If this would have been a video of just a hedgehog, who happen to have a ramp in it’s cage, I could have been a lot nicer, but you watched him fall. And that doesn’t sit well with me.
Grover refuses to actually use his ball…hilarity ensues
Oh god, and then this to top it off?! I’m fucking done. Seriously, clearly when you decided to get a hedgehog, you didn’t look up anything. I wouldn’t be surprised if you were using cedar bedding and feeding it dog food to go along with it. Why don’t you throw some chocolate in as a treat too.
^^^^this!!!! On top of that, the ball isn’t even big enough for him to run! I swear, when it comes to exotic animals, people should be required to pass some form of exam.
