She's definately sweet and cute. I just weighed her, and she came in at an even 300 grams, so she's not as tiny as I thought just by holding her. Hemi was much smaller than Vette. But yet, this new girl is only have the actual SIZE of Hemi.

Anyways, after a careful inspection, I've noticed two things that are a bit different, but don't really pose too much of a problem. First, as a result from her mites, her ears are a bit raggedy. I'm sure massaging vitamin E in will help. It's not even bad... just one spot on each ear.

Last, in looking quickly at her mouth, it looks like she's missing one top fang. She ate this afternoon, so it doesn't look like a big deal or concern. My question is, should there be any special considerations I should mention to Adam?

I'd just like to say I've never met such a hyper, curious hedgie. She was at school with me, since I didn't have time to go home between her adoption and the start of class. She spent the whole time running around in her box, or on me, or on the floor during break. She's a bit shy, but that's understandable.

Adam will love her - I already do.

Now she's resting and relaxing from her busy day. Her nails need a trim, and she needs some vitamin E, but I'm letting that wait until tomorrow, when she'll be calm.

So she tolerated me putting vitamin E on her ears, and the ratty edges came right off. I couldn't wait to put vitamin E on her, since her skin looked really dry and itchy. Being the runner she is, she didn't want to sit still, but I got it done. Nail clipping tomorrow or some other day.

Congratulations to you and Adam. I am so glad that he was able to adopt her! Hopefully she will be in tip top condition soon. Best wishes.

Basically, she's the picture of health. Her quills are thick and healthy, and if devon hadn't told me, I'd have never known she had mites. She's a darling little thing.

She is sooooo cute!!!!! I'm so happy for you that everything worked out. Maybe after your folks see her they'll change their minds (*quills crossed*).

LOL, well Mom saw her and did say she was cute. But she's Adam's and I think he already loves her, just from what I told him about her.
