Mine love the exercise wheel too!<br /><br />Feed him a Mealworm and make his day! Gross, but so worth spoiling the little guy.<br /><br />Here is where I got most of the food and stuff for our hedgies:<br />http://www.exoticnutrition.com/<br /><br />Oh, and if you want to laugh your ass off, they can swim, so fill up the bathtub about 4" and watch him swim! <br /><br />Let me know if you need any hedgie tips :).https://www.blogger.com/profile/16334515338568221714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148811199743801438.post-39983296513272250092009-09-15T20:05:14.335-04:002009-09-15T20:05:14.335-04:00Hey, Ashley, he is soo cute!

So good to see you. That project ...Monogram Momma!! So good to see you. That project is adorable, but there's no way I could hot glue it together so it's a no-go. I actually need to make Reggie a small fleece bag (just like a big pocket, rectangle with 3 sides sewn up) to snuggle in but I'm pretty sure the results will injure him and/or myself somehow and I think glue would be toxic. <br /><br />I got pics near my blackberry and a beer so you can see his size that I'll post later, I'd say he's about the size of a rat (although I hate to compare him to a rodent) and could grow as large as a chubby guinea pig. He'll always live inside because they prefer a temperature around 75-80 degrees. <br /><br />Right now he lives in a clear Sterilite plastic tub. I'm going to get him a rabbit cage but the tub works great for toting him around during the day and I lock him in a pet-free, kid-free room at night. He's nocturnal and does most of his partying while we sleep. I need to get him a wheel so he can exercise, right now he has a cardboard wine tube, a block, a ball, a pile of fleece scraps and a small bean bag to play with and he hides out in a box-cave Mr. Ashley made him. <br /><br />He's super easy to take care of so far, I just line the bottom of his tub in fleece liners that I cut out, dump it in the morning and replace it with a new one and wash the used ones. <br /><br />When he's relaxed, his quills feel like a bristle brush and he doesn't mind me petting him. When he's annoyed, he huffs and puts them up and pulls the ones on his head over his eyes. Then he peeks out and determines whether he should come out or roll into a ball. If he rolls into a ball, he'll peek out and then suddenly pop un-done if he decides it's safe...it's seriously the cutest thing ever. It's like living with a cartoon character. We're all totally smitten. You all need a hedgehog. <br /><br />Pearl is also starting to come around. With me more than him, but that's okay. She's not aggressive towards him, just wants nothing to do with him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08436571420215943287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148811199743801438.post-1809295427723804562009-09-15T10:19:47.814-04:002009-09-15T10:19:47.814-04:00I need to borrow Reggie.

We put her food and potty box up there so she could stay up there if she wanted. She was so stressed that her hair was falling out and she lost weight. I seriously thought about getting rid of the dog because I'd had the cat for about 8 years already. Eventually she came around and asserted herself as the Queen of the House and all is right in the world now :P If she wants something and the dog is in the way she swipes at the dog. She got ATTITUDE and I wouldn't have it any other way. Give Mis Pearl some time and she'll come around and love you again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148811199743801438.post-74405238940117568842009-09-14T23:58:52.136-04:002009-09-14T23:58:52.136-04:00oh my goodness i love reggie's little leg. tha...oh my goodness i love reggie's little leg. that's the sweetest part about him!Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04686915600251727207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148811199743801438.post-24573040934408945332009-09-14T23:28:08.899-04:002009-09-14T23:28:08.899-04:00So, what is the long-term plan when owning a hedge...So, what is the long-term plan when owning a hedgehog?
