Thank you for all of the information and support. It never even occurred to me that the vet could try to put Spikey out with gas--NO WAY I am letting the vet do that. And ditto on shots or anything else strange. I may need to do an emergency call to Stasi (sorry Stasi LOL) if something funky arises during the vet visit and I need help or backing. I am going to print the information on the medications not to use for mites just in case the vet thinks Spikey has mites and tries to push the poison.
I have not scheduled it yet; I need to make the preliminary calls this week.

I wouldn't worry about it, it's not something sneaky they do, they will tell you up front, "Our policy is we don't see hedgehogs unless they are under." Then you say, "Umm no thanks."
One sign you have a good vet is if they can handle Spikey the same way Stasi did, where he's responsive and comfortable.
