Oh my gosh. Love it! So cute! I used to have 2 hedgehogs. Peggy and Poggy, don't ask, I was 9. Had them for a few years until they passed away. And I swear for years we were finding shedded quills around the house after they passed. Not fun. I've never given a birthday party to a pet before, let alone something so small. I don't think I'd have the patience, and I'd have a major flare when I got done. But it is sweet to do.
I think that these tiny hedgehogs, or midget porcupines are adorable, but i know just how sharp that porcupine quills can be. I have had dogs end up with quills in their face because they thought they could attack such a short, slow little creature as a porcupine.
You have to take scissors and snip off the outer end of the quill, and that releases the suction, and then you can take your needle nose pliers and pull the quills out of your dog.
After having had to do this; it would never have occurred to me to even want a full-sized porcupine for a pet.
However, here is a place that does have one, and it is totally intriguing how many different sounds they can make. It really does sound like he is trying to talk when he doesn't want to give up his ear of corn.
