Got a big problem..my 1 yr old skunk wants to sleep 99% of the time ,shes overweight according to the vet (shes 15lbs)but the sleeping is out of control!!! Any ideas on what could be causing it? It got even worse when we got the new baby skunk(so she would have a playmate &not be lonely &SHE HATES THE BABY SKUNK) so besides sleepin all the time when she is up we have to keep them apart cause she trys to bite the lilone but the lil one chases her & wants to play. Will she ever accept her and get along & play? :easter:

Sounds like depression to me, seriously has nose out of joint over little one. Try to get her out in the sunlight to absorb some Vit D, up the taurine. Get her active (get those feel good endorphin's flowing) and plenty of quality of time with just you and her.

Gradually introduce the baby, supervise them at all times. When she is up, and make sure you keep her up, make her the center of the world. When she is asleep, spend quality time alone bonding with the baby. Yes, eventually they will be fine together. Keep the stress down, this would be the time for especially your older skunk to become ill. Use the natural immune system to keep her healthy.
