I have a hedgehog and I have never heard of hedeghog dye or hedgehog safe dye and it is animal cruelty and could do a lot of harm to the hedgehogs health. And other then that the person selling him did great with the requirements to sell him
This isn't specific to this video, but I like how earnest Emzotic is. She's willing to admit that the animals she loves aren't for everyone, and isn't preachy.
Here's hoping that little -Berry- Barry goes to a good home. I wouldn't mind if he DID become a bit of a celeb as long as his owner was using him to raise awareness about the dangers of treating pets like toys that you can colour and play with how you like. And of course love him and treat him right!
Yeah :/ . They need to be able to run around the house. Or have some other really large space dedicated to it. It also bugs me when places have them with the guinea pigs. They would likely get trampled.
The things is that sometimes people listen to the employees advice in the animal shop without doing their own research and make them believe it's good. I obviously don't know the case with these people but they have to do better research or not get an animal at all if they can't afford to buy it a good place to be in
The blue hedgehog has me worried that someone used Splat on it. Splat is a semiperminent human hair dye that is extremely bright, takes months to come out, bleeds all over the place after washing (even months later it will bleed) and splat can leave a burning sensation on the skin.
I have splat in my hair rn and it bleeds every wear but I did go to the pool recently and it did not fade so im probably going to use the brand again but splat is for humans not animals
I once saw a blue stray dog and was absolutely shocked.. before I could react the dog ran away... Turns out the dog had somehow entered an Indigo dye factory nearby and came out blue.. Not sure if this happened to the hedgehog here but thought it was worth sharing.. BTW, love the mane 😍
I've dealt with hair dyes before, and that HAS to be some sort of permanent dye for it to have stuck around for two months with only that amount of fading. Or worse, something like a fabric dye.
Unfortunately my hedghog passed away a few weeks ago. 🦔❤😭Seeing that hedghog dyed blue breaks my heart. I hope that little angel finds an amazing home! He definitely deserves it!!!
I live in PA and saw so many horrific things when I was looking for the bunny I got last year. He was one of the only bunnies that was well kept and happy, it was just a daughter leaving for college situation, and they seemed to care a lot about who was taking him because they turned people down.
Omg! That poor hedgie baby....I've had hedgies in the past and they can be such intelligent and fun affectionate companions.....whomever even thought to do that...just wow🙁
Snakes don't like small enclosures, they like to feel safe. You could put a ball python in a 5/6ft enclosure and they will be happy as long as they have plenty of places to hide and feel secure. The generally rule of thumb is that they should be able to get from one side of the enclosure to the other without being seen clearly 😁 Even hognoses can be kept in 4/5ft happily as long as they feel secure x
I am SO GLAD that person went through all the effort to rescue and rehabilitate that poor little hedgie!! Praying that Barry goes to a truly amazing home and continues to heal 💕🦔
I feel so bad for the Craigslist animals. I acquired two pets from there, both “free to good home” pets. So scary, since one is my little 12 lb dog and my small 8lb cat. All I thought of was bait animals when I saw those ads and I just can’t go into Craigslist anymore.
The dye they used is splat dye which is awful it always comes out whenever it gets wet and alot of people have allergic reactions from it. I'm surprised the hedgehog survived that
When we had pet rabbits, we had a night hutch (raised off the ground) and a big run with a small day hutch for them. We felt like we couldn't let them stay in the run overnight as there are lots of foxes around us, or we would have let them have that much space 24/7. It's very sad that so many bunnies are kept in tiny little cages like that- that cage looked to be the same size as the crate we used to take them to the vet!
I know I shouldn't but ....... the way Barry looks whilst being handled coupled with his blue color that comes right out of a candy ........ I completely lost my shit and couldn't stop laughing. He's so precious
16:35 we need more people like that who make sure that the home the animal is going to is going to take care of it, I thought I was the only person who was like this
As a hedgehog owner my heart was broken as soon as I saw the thumbnail he looks so stressed, scared, and not in the best health 😢😢 i truly hope he goes to a loving caring home that can help him
Sadly I don’t have the time to dedicate to all of these animals. I really wanted the hedgehog though. I called the owner of the day gecko to see if he was available but he’d already been sold.
I feel bad but I started laughing at the point with the blue hedgehog when she was like "Were they trying to imitate Sonic?!" because that was my first thought xD Poor animals though especially that hedgehog...
The hedgehog story remembers me of the story of Violet, a Maltese mix from Florida. Someone dyed her purple, then dumped her at a shelter. the dye burned the pup’s skin so bad that her hair feel out leaving open burns. It was horrible.
Great video! What broke my heart was seeing the rabbit in that good-for-nothing crate. I petted my own bun bun when I saw it, and she's free-roamed, like most rabbits should be (but playpens are acceptable too 😂). My rabbit also came from a bad situation and it took me so long to make her to feel safe and loved again. Anyways, that is in no shape or form a suitable diet, living area or emotionally good space to be in. I really hope this guy goes to a good family 🥺
I really wish I could help that poor Hedgehog :c I live in the Denver area as well and love all animals. Unfortunately I live with my parents though and they don't want anymore animals in the house 😔 I hope he finds a loving and caring home along with all of the other poor animals mentioned.
Gurl your spice was unreal, loving the attitude and how happy you're looking plus that hair! loving the reaction videos too cannot believe the gaint gecko 🦎 habitat 🤦♀️
I actually got my dog from a breeder found on Craigslist.😬 The lady was actually very nice a a vet assistant. I lucked out because my chihuahua is going to be 10 this year and hasn’t had any health problems. She still has the same energy as when she was a puppy.
@@Emzotic I don't blame you; Florida pet Craigslist is really something. I've seen people put monkeys on Craigslist, it's something you have to be prepared for.
I got super lucky when I got my dog off Craigslist a few years ago. She's a beautiful cavvie and is about ten years old now! I wish I could rescue all the animals! I'd love to see more videos like this 😁
Em I love your videos. You’re very respectful, considerate, and great at educating people without being “preachy” or pretentious. Your videos are very informative and helpful to many people. Thanks for doing what you do, kind regards.
When your heart can handle it; make another craigslist video for Texas! I already know it's full of puppy mills and, probably snakes. So curious to see what you find 👀... also, I learned two years ago that bunnies can be free roamed as long as you litter box train and bunny proof your home 🐰🐇💖
I live in NJ right on the border of PA and PA Craigslist is wild. You never know what crazy stuff you are going to see. You can occasionally get good deals on used reptile enclosures, though!
Em is one of the most gorgeous people I've ever seen, with some of the most valuable videos on this platform. I love her energy, and passion (as well as tremendous knowledge) for all creatures --even the ones that most would find creepy-crawly.
I remember seeing a Craigslist ad with a photo of 2 leopard geckos and a crested gecko housed together in a horizontal terrarium (about “16 long if I remember) with sand substrate
Please please in the next video you should contact the people posting these ads and educate them. I feel so terrible for the rabbit. Praying that someone rescued it
You should make a video about your top 10 favourite snakes and if you want you can add your favourite morphs from them. I would love to watch it. Then again I love all your videos :)
After a video from Emzotic all of the animals mentioned found wonderful and proper homes. Jk, don't know if this actually happened but this is a lovely community so maybe.
I dyed my ferret jet black. The photo is what he looked like Yer nar 100% joking . I wouldn't do that to my baby. that's turbo by the way. we are from Australia. Hope you will do more ferret stuff soon you beautiful woman 😊
Nooooooo poor Barry!!! Ughhh god I’d take him in, in a heartbeat! I love LOVE hedgehogs, and that poor boy’s face is so sweet, I just want to shower him with love and care.
Sorry, another comment by me but, my mom said if I keep my room clean for at least a month, I can get a puppy. (Preferably a golden) And I agree that you think about research and that you should have fun with you’re pet *without* hurting him :D OH AND, any suggestions to keep a room clean and 10000% SPOTLESS for a whole month?
Wow how exciting!!!! Okay, so, anytime there’s something in your hand in your bedroom, you can only put it down in its correct place! And make your bed every morning - that’s a great place to start!
@@Emzotic okay! D thank you! I’ll try to keep clean. I’ve been doing a good job, my room stayed clean for like 2 days straight already. And my bedsheet has stayed on my bed for a whole day :D
Oh boy, that giant day gecko is living in the same conditions the one I got from a friend's sibling was in. The classic 20 gallon tank with a terrestrial gecko hide is a classic signature of pet-store advice being followed... Just a note on these guys, some of them do drink out of bowls fine! I do mist my old guy daily and he will drink from that too, but the previous owner did not mist him often so without that water dish he would have surely not survived for 13 years. Note: Carlos is now living in a 75g tall planted tank and spends much of his days looking for and stalking the cleaner crew of arthropods whenever they come out of hiding.
Late to this video, but so love all the information I have learned from you! I actually got my juvenile bearded dragon boy from craigslist. After months of research, I went looking to provide a home for a dragon who needed a new situation. A young college guy found that he did not really enjoy either the work or the expense of keeping a reptile. So, it can work!
As someone who owns a rabbit everytime i see ads with these messed up cages it makes me so angry. My baby is freeroamed within my room cord protecters arent hard to buy same with cheap toys and cardboard boxes. Thank you for addressing this.
I live in PA. Theres many many many people who don't even research who they vote on so I don't think they will research pets. I can imagine many bad things on Craigslist here.
The way you analyse these situations kinda reminds me of part of my vet school interview so if you are applying for vet school this might be good research
@@Emzotic its a very weird compliment. I did 2 interviews for vet school this year. Both had some sort of section where they showed you a picture of an animal and you just had to talk through it. They don't tell you anything they just show you the picture. You could talk about the weight, its feet, if its a dig having pink gums is a sign of good health. The interviewers may give you a few hints but you basically have to do what you did.
Hi Em! Normally I’m in school when you post but today I wasn’t so I could be to the video early!! Keep doing what you’re doing because your channel is amazing!
I was so shocked about the poor little Hedgie! Why are people doing that? I would never dye an animal, no matter what. Not even with a pet save dye! Nature made animals their colours for a reason. Their colour is perfect for every animal that comes in it's own colour! I hope I made sense, English is not my first language. Kind regards from Germany
I have 2 carpet sharks and I just wanna thank you. This was my first time owning a pet. And you helped me so much on the journey to getting my demon spawns.
I recently just rescued a Russian tortoise a months ago from somone on cregs list for 25$. For anyone who knows anything about tortoises that's dirt cheap. I saw the pictures and I new I jsut had to get her out of that situation. It's been really cold in Colorado we have had several snow storms and she had no heat source. She had a crocheted blanket in her enclosure like really are u kidding me? When I got her she was so cold I thought I was gonna loose her. Me and my aunt were able to get her warmed up we went out first thing and got her a heat light and pad vitamins calcium evening she needed. Now she's happy and healthy and getting ready to go to the vet for a nail and beak trim. On warm days She loves to play outside in our huge finced in yard. She has been the best addition to our family she even responds to her name Tilly the tortoise 🐢❤
