Thanks Jess, Sydney is so cute. At first i thought he was a Koosh ball
Where did you get him?

[AJs Human]

Haha! I did too! I love pygmy hedgehogs…

I'm happy your girl is better and did so well in the ring.

[Maya]

Poor Sidney!

I bought him from a breeder in North Yorkshire

I'm sorry for what has happened Jess. It's wonderful that Maya has come back and looked great at the show.

Congratulations Jess and Maya :D. Great to see the piccies too.
What you've been through is absolutely horrible and I hope you get to the bottom of it.
Glad to hear that Maya and all the other pooches are ok now, poor babies.

Congrats Jess! I'm happy to hear she is doing well. I'm sure it's nice to have something to smile about.

Hi Jess, sorry you have had a really tough time recently. Maya has bounced back though and looks as stunning as ever! She really is a pretty girl and will continue to do well. Take care, see you next year.

Well done Jess and Maya, a great result. I did ask
Others regarding your terrible ordeal as I have not seen you since and I was truly shocked when I heard the details.

Hope to see you soon, BCOGB Open or LKA?

Congratulations, Maya is a lovely girl. I am so sorry about your losses, I did not know what happened to them, but assumed it was tragic. So very gald Maya recovered.

[Sharla]

that is just great! You both deserved something positive to happen!

[thunderbird8588]

Special request Jess, can we see more pics of Sidney

[Patty]

Jess

Well done to Maya. You were very lucky and I can imagine how pleased you were/are. Perhaps this will make up a little after your dreadful ordeal.

Thank goodness that Maya hadn't taken more of the poison - I'm so relieved that she is ok now.

[Vicki]

Lovely photos and great show. I, too, am so sorry and sad about your loss.

What is Maya eating?

[Janneke]

Well done little Maya en mom! Big congrats!

Sorry to hear you've had such a hard time.. Glad your baby girl puts a smile on your face

[Maya]

Thanks for the lovely comments everyone, it is very much appreciated

Thanks for the cute pics of Sidney Jess, excuse my ignorance but will he stay that colour or go darker?
Maya knows how to live, tucking in to a full English
Did she use the fork as well?

[diff_eqs]

OMG! Sidney is just about the cutest thing I have seen!!! Where did you get him from?

[lvoss]

It is illegal in the state of California to own a hedgehog.

[AJs Human]

Pygmy Hedgehogs are very difficult to find here in the States. Many states have outlawed them. I can't figure out why. Unfortunately, since you're in California, they probably led the gauntlet. If you live in San Francisco, almost all "exotic" pets are outlawed.

Maya, Sidney is gorgeous! I can see in one of those photos that you've come in contact with those guard hairs a few times…the things we do for our loved pets.:D I have met several pygmy hedgehogs, but only one was albino. She was pretty, too, but Sidney takes the cake!
