    So my case I think to be a little unique. I've had a hedgehog in the past and he passed away, and I'm looking for a new one, but my parents are divorced and my stepmom doesn't keep the heat on in my room after I leave for school. So she said if I could bring the hedgehog from my mom's to my...

    Hello all! I made a similar post about this a year ago, and it seems I've circled back around to the same question... Do you think it's unwise to get a hedgehog in college? To give some context for my situation... I had my first and only hedgehog when I was in high school. Even though I tried...

    I've been struggling to find any information at all on what documentation I need to bring my pet Hedgehog to Ireland from the UK. I've read that a health check kind of form needs filled in and stamped by your vet (health check 5 days before travel) to enter for rabbits and rodents however...

    I have been looking on Amazon and at some pet stores and I haven't been able to find a suitable hard-sided cage of the appropriate size for taking my hedgie home from the breeder. I was wondering if anyone has a cage that they prefer that works well for their hedgie, and is easy to buckle into a...

    Hi there, we will be traveling for 2 weeks, and I am so worried about sweet Emmy. We have a really good friend who will be taking care of her. She has met him a couple of times. The plan is to take the big bunbun cage over there, since it is secure with a roof and a door. He has a cat, and I'd...

    So, I am planning on becoming a new hedgehog parent. The breeder that looks the most qualified near me is over three hours away. I don't want to travel home with them in the cardboard box that the breeder will provide. I was wondering if there is a certain type of carrier, or even a flannel...

(link at the bottom) I really like it, becasue . . . ** It's anti-microbial and designed to be used for urine and poop. ** It's 15" tall. ** It's interior is...

    Hello fellow hedgie parents! I currently live in New York with my girl, Q. I am moving to the west coast and assumed that if I paid a fee, I could bring my hedgie on the plane with me (like a dog or a rabbit). Apparently this is not the case. I simply don't know what to do! Q has travelled...

    I live on the west side of Washington state, and it can get fairly cold here for a hedgehog, especially in and near winter time. I was looking online and some places said that it is okay to take your hedgehog outside when it is cold, as long as you have a snuggle sack to carry your hedgie in. I...

    Relatively new to posting, but I've been a guest for the past month. -- I've had my hedgehog for about a month now, he's about 14-15weeks now.

    I've decided to take a road trip around Ohio this summer, and I wanted to bring along my hedgehog Casper. Vets, should I need one, shouldn't be an issue because hedgies are legal here. I've also thought about using a dog seat to transport him, it goes around the seat so he'll be secure and it...
