So I got Pickles yesterday and I can't wait to begin to start getting to know him! I have a couple of general questions first, being a new owner and all!
(1) My hedgie is a real climber and when I put the igloo in his cage he tries (and has succeeded) to climb on it, and from there, up the sides of his cage. Is it fine to not have an igloo in his cage-he has a sleep sack which he just sleeps under anyway.
(2) Can I leave toys (like a ball or cat toy) in his cage, or does he have to be supervised when he plays with them?
(3) If I put fleece strips in his cage for him to bury under, do they have to be a certain size? Do they ever chew on them, or can they hurt themselves in any way?
(4) Is it okay to use Yesterday's News Litter? Do they ever try to eat it? I tried a paper towel, but it keeps moving around.
Sorry for so many questions! Hopefully I can take some pictures in a couple of days when he has adjusted to his new home!
