Great Info! MUST HAVE for new hedgie moms or dads!
I had been on a waiting list for my little spikey ball of joy for 6 months. Where I'm from (MN) hedgehogs are considered exotics and after knowing all I know now, I know why. They have so many things that are unique to them.This is a MUST READ FOR NEW HEDGIE OWNERS! I always do my research before getting a pet, but hedgehogs proved to be the most particular in their needs. Please read this before, I repeat, before you bring him or her home.I had no idea so many things were toxic and dangerous for hedgehogs. This book tells you everything you need to know. Even how to clip their nails and what they like their houses to have in them (I prefer the term "house" over "cage").: )Good Luck, have fun!
