do the spiny stuffs hurt when you pet them?

[otterwoman]

You have to learn how to pick them up. When their spines are down, it's just like rough hair, but when his spines are up, he's harder to hold. Then, his spines can prick you, yes. You can learn how do hold him anyway, or use gloves.

My hedgehog does that with strawberries.

[jabbascript]

Do they have to get anointment???

Lol lotion sounds a lot better XP

[raineisdead]

Hehe, my hedgehog topples over like yours did in the beginning of the video when it tries to self anoint in that position.

[otterwoman]

No, no sneeze, but he is the cutest thing ever.

[MoronicAlecky]

Did it sneeze? Your hedgehog's pretty cute

[raineisdead]

No, the "sneezing" looking thing is what hedgehog owners call huffing and puffing. It's a defense mechanism. The spike up (a little or a lot depending on how much of a threat they perceive) and the huff and puff in the direction of the perceived threat to try and scare away any predators.

Well, he lives in a cage, and runs around in a wheel.
