We have definitely been working out plans for a holiday photo.

Funny Princess PP story.

My daughter read that hedgehogs might carry around a fleece blankie if you give them small fleece squares, so she gave PPP a pile of fleece squares about an inch or so big, had to be 35-40 of them. We left them in a pile in her cage and hid a piece of kibble in it. The next morning the entire pile had been moved about three inches over and the piece of kibble was just sitting there.

She moves her igloo around every night. She also has a small stuffed iguana that is almost as big as she is. If I don't put it under her igloo she tries to drag it in there or sleeps outside of the igloo with her head under the iguana. In the igloo she often positions it to block the entrance/exit, unless she decides to sleep with her butt out the entrance, lol.

I'm amazed by how much control she has with her quills. If she is nestled on my lap with her head tucked in somewhere and she falls asleep she will slightly puff her quills only in the areas not touching me. I read hedgehogs don't like petting, but she does the thing where she sticks her nose under my hand to make me pet her and if she is sleepy and you lightly pet her back/butt she purrs.

We are enamored, can you tell?

She purrs in her sleep, awwww.

Hedgehog fist pump.
“I’m in my favorite Pringles can! Whoo!”



She has a new nickname now. Pricklybear.

So far she's got about 500 nicknames, but Pricklybear seems to be one that's sticking. Along with Princess P.P.

We do have out hands full with her sometimes.

OK, I am trying not to be that person who posts a photo a day of their pet on the internet. But not very hard. For now I am happy that I am not posting 2-4 a day. Except the days where that happens. But it'll slow down soon.

Oh my gawd that face is precious
