Hedgie Improper, the Pet of the Day
Name: Hedgie Improper
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female
Kind: African Pygmy Hedgehog
Home: Maryland, USA
 
   This is Hedgie, she likes to eat, and sleep, and play. Her full name is Hedgie Improper, but we call her Hedgie all the time. She eats dry cat food and mealworms as a treat. She is partially mine, and partially my sister's pet. Taking care of her is pretty easy, you swap the newspaper where she poops daily, and clean the rest of the cage weekly. The worst part of cleaning is the wheel.

    In the spring and summer she can go outside and play in the grass. For some reason she likes to get her head stuck in a toilet paper tube (I wish I had a photo of this). When she sleeps she sometimes snores and kicks her back right leg or twitches her front paws. She also likes to crawl up my sister's shirt and take a nap. Sometimes when the sheets are about to be changed on a bed, we let her crawl around under the covers. Overall she is mellow and cuddly, even though she is a hedgehog. Her belly is super soft, especially after a bath. She likes to swim in the bathtub and sit on our mega rubber ducky. She was a bit tough to get, since you need to find a breeder here, but it was well worth it. We love her!
