leaving presents when upset - 2005/12/20 23:40 Sometimes when my hedgie Inuyasha is being held he'll poop in our hands. And once when my wife let him run around on her tummy he piddled on her. Most recently he found his way into the front pocket of my wifes favorite hoodie and when she tried to take him out he pooped and piddled in her hoodie. Why dose he do that.

Re:leaving presents when upset - 2005/12/21 03:34 How old is Inuyasha? If he's younger he might not have control of his potty habits yet. With younger hogs if you can wake them up first and then let them go before you get them out of their cages, it'll reduce his accidents. When I get my older ready to go I let them run in the play pen for a couple minutes first, and then they are usually good to go. As he gets older and more use to a routine things should get better.
