|  Poor Brownie
Hi everyone,
Brownie, one of my old hedgies is going down hill. She is shaking. No, she is not in hibernation but I think she has a nerological problem like parkinsons in humans....I am taking her to the vet to have her evaluated.  She may have to be put down.

| I hope the vet can figure it out. That is not a symptom I have heard of with hedgehogs before. Maybe blood work? Maybe it is an electrolyte imbalance or something correctable. Please keep us posted. Sending  s for Brownie.

| Hi everyone,
Thank you all for your support. I contacted the person which gave me Brownie when she was a baby. It turns out her mom had WHS and had to be put down. I gave Brownie a good home for 4 years and she was never bred so she could never pass on WHS .
