Ama-hedgehogs ase-African Pygmy athandwa kakhulu kunalokho ongacabanga ngakho futhi angaphezu kwesilwane esincane. Ama-hedgehogs ajwayele izifo eziningana ezinzima, ezinye zazo ezingagwenywa. Ngenkathi kungekho nhlobo yokulandela ukulandelwa kwempilo yezempilo ye-hedgehog zonke izifo zazo zonke izilwane zezilwane zezilwane, lezi ezinye zezifo ezivame kakhulu esizibona kubangane bethu abayi-spiny, akukho myalelo othize.
1. Izifo zamazinyo
AmaHedgehogs anamazinyo angama-44 emilonyeni yawo encane, ene-V.
Lawa mazinyo afana nezinguqulo ezincane zamazinyo ethu futhi athambekele ezindabeni ezifanayo zamazinyo. Amazinyo aphukile, amazinyo angenayo, i-gingivitis, kanye nokuqoqwa kwe-tartar konke kungabangela izinkinga emakhanda ethu amancane. Ukuvimbela noma yikuphi ukwelashwa kwamazinyo kuyiqiniso kodwa akusiyo njalo ekhanda lesilwane esithandayo ukugubha umzimba wakhe ube yi-spiky, i-hersing ball. Uma ungathola lucky ngokwanele ukuthola ilungelo lomngane wakho we-spiky, khona-ke ungase ube umuthi wokudla. Akekho ngokujulile, uma ungathola i-Q-tip emlonyeni wakho we-hedgie bese ugijimela ngamanzi futhi usebenze ekugcineni lezo zici zikhanya.
Uma ukuxubha amazinyo akho e-hedgehog kuyinto engabi nalutho bese ulungele ukuhlanzwa kwamazinyo ngezinyo zokuqhathanisa izinyo ezenziwe esikhathini esithile empilweni yakho encane ye-hedgehog.
Izifo zokuzala s
Ukwehlisa ama-hedgehogs wesifazane kukhona okumele kwenziwe okwedlula nje ukulawulwa kwabantu. Amagciwane ebelethini, isisu esithathelelekile esibizwa ngokuthi i-pyometra, kanye nezicubu ezincelisayo kungenzeka konke kuvela ku-hedgehog yakho ilenga izitho zakhe zokuzala.
Lezi zifo zonke zingavinjelwa ngokuba ne-ovariohysterectomy eyenziwa ngezinduna zezinsikazi zakho ezinyangeni ezingaba yisithupha kuya kweziyisishiyagalombili. I-hedgehogs yama-neutering eyisihluthulelo nayo iyisihluthulelo sokuvimbela umdlavuza we-testicular futhi ingenziwa futhi phakathi nesikhathi esifanayo nabesifazane.
3. Ectoparasites
Ama-hedgehogs azolahlekelwa ezinye iziqu zabo njengengxenye yokuchitha kwabo okuvamile kodwa uma i-hedgie yakho ibetha futhi ishaqa futhi uthola iziqu eziningi ezingaphansi kwegumbi, khona-ke i-hedgehog yakho ingaba ne-ectoparasite.
Izinambuzane zihlobo olulodwa lwe-ectoparasites ebonakalayo kuma-hedgehogs futhi kuzokwenza ukuthi i-hog yakho ibe yinto enhle. Izindleko zizophuma, isikhumba sizokoma, futhi i-hedgehog yakho ingase ikhubeke kakhulu kunokujwayelekile. Izibungu zingatholwa yi-vet yakho ye-vet (thola eduze kwakho) ngokwenza isikhumba esikhwameni sakho bese ufuna izibungu ezincane ngaphansi kwe-microscope. Lokhu kuhlola akulona i-100% ehluleka ubufakazi kodwa kusukela endaweni encane ye-hedgehog yakho izokwenziwa ukuze i-vet yakho inganquma ukuphatha izibungu ngisho noma ingaboni ngaphansi kwe-microscope.
Izibungu zingeniswa endlini yakho ye-hedgie ngendlela yokulala nokudla. Ngakho-ke, kubalulekile ukufiphaza lezi zinto ngaphambi kokuzifaka emgodini.
4. Izifo Neurological
Ngokuvamile ibizwa ngokuthi "i-wobly hedgehog syndrome," ama-hedgehogs angakha isifo sezinzwa esenza ukuba, badumise kahle. I-Ataxia iqhubekela phambili ekuwehleni, ingakwazi ukuzikhandla, ihlupha, futhi ekugcineni ikhubazekile nezinye izimpawu eziningi phakathi. Kuyinto isifo esibuhlungu ukuthi akukho hedgehog kufanele kudingeke ukuba adlule kodwa kuthiwa kuthinta cishe 1 ku-hedgehogs 10. Ayikho imbangela eyaziwayo kepha kukhona okusolakala ukuthi kukhona izakhi zofuzo, futhi ayikho ikhambi.
5. Izifo Zama-Urinary Tract
Isikhwama sithinta umchamo (isifundo samathambo amancane lapha) okufanele sicaciswe ngokuphuzi. Kodwa ngezinye izikhathi ama-hedgehogs ahlakulela ukutheleleka kwe-urinary noma i-cystitis, kokubili okungabangela umchamo ukuba ube mnyama noma ube negazi. I-urolithiasis (amatshe e-bladder) nawo angabangela i-hematuria (umchamo wamanzi) futhi angenza kube nzima ku-hedgehog yakho ukuvuthwa. Ukuvuthwa kwe-urinalysis, isiko, ama-radiographs kanye ne-ultrasound yesibindi kuzosiza ekuhloleni izifo ze-urinary ze-hedgehog yakho. Ukutheleleka kwezinso, izicubu zesisu kanye nezinye izifo zesimiso se-urinary nazo ziyabonakala.
Ezinye izifo eziningi zikhona futhi zingatholakala yi-vet yakho ye-vet. Izifo zendlebe, ukukhuluphala, ukugula, ukungena, i-osteoarthritis nezinye izifo kungenzeka konke ku-hedgehog yakho. Ngakho-ke, ukuhlolwa kwangokwenyama kwonyaka kunconywa ukugcina ingulube yakho ibe nenempilo ngangokunokwenzeka ngangokunokwenzeka.
