He's gonna pull through!!!

We just dropped $79.50 on vet care for a hedgehog!!! He is worth every penny...see picture to the right.

We think he had an infected molar a couple of weeks ago (which is why he wasn't eating) and the infection has since moved out of his mouth and to his face. He has two HUGE abscesses on the left side of his face. They both popped while we were at the vet, too. It was a little gross! So know we have to give him antibiotics, orally. If you know anything about hedgehogs or have ever been around them, then you know giving one antibiotics (orally) is like giving a cat a bath in water. We figured the vet would have given him the first dose if he had been a cat or a dog but since he was impersonating an inside-out pin cushion, he let us give him the first dose when we got home. Although, he did very well this morning. We get to go back to the vet in a week, bright and early, 8:00am!!!

Now, it's off to the zoo!!!
