...but then I found Spork making a bed for herself between toilet paper rolls...



I know, she's my hedgie, so I'm biased...
...but you gotta admit -- this is pretty fruckin' keeeyooot.

Date: 2003-09-09 08:55 am (UTC)She's a great pet, honestly. Hedgies have their own individual personalities, but generally, they are tame.
They can bite, but Spork has never bitten me. I consider myself lucky.
They eat hedgehog food. Really, there's a food mix especially made for them. The brand I use has corn, wheat, and other grains, along with raisins and bananas. They also like to eat mealworms, which is kinda gross, but you can buy them freeze-dried at the pet shop.
Spork also likes to both dry and moist cat food. :)
They are very small, and they love to burrow into things, so you have to be careful when they're running around. I managed to lose Spork behind my fridge once. Oops.
Yes, they can indeed be prickly. But usually only if they're agitated or scared. Otherwise, her spines feel like a stiff brush. They'll never be a "cuddly" animal, but they will tolerate being petted.
I'm lucky, Spork took to me really quickly. I loves her. :)
(Your piggy is too too cute, btw. :) )
