Product Description

Product Description

Hedgehogs are one of the hottest new pets around, and there′s a lot of conflicting information about them. Here, a veteran hedgehog breeder, owner and advocate pairs with an exotic animals veterinarian to give first–time owners the help they need to share their homes with a hedgehog.


From the Author

Good resource for owners of pet hedgehogs.
This book is based on many years of experience, first with my own pets and then later with breeding hedgehogs and rehabilitating rescued hedgehogs. It contains an extensive, up-to-date health care section by Dr. Susan Brown, DVM. The book also includes a resource section with books, organizations and suppliers of hedgehog products that was current as of 12/96.

5.0 out of 5 stars There is much to learn before getting a hedgie..., 3 Sep 1999
By A Customer
The best book on HH I have seen. Read it before you get a hedgie. Highly readable, well edited, it covers the origins, description, choosing a HH, behaviors/personality/socializing/having fun with, health (sexually active at 7 weeks means that females can easily be pregnant if weanlings weren't kept separated) and feeding, even legal issues of ownership. Plenty of good color photos, and important details in sidebars so you won't miss them, make this well-organized, up-to-date book a must for your decision-making. The final two chapters list and give some description of recommended books and magazines, and list associations and mail order sources for food and supplies. Ms. Wrobel and Dr. Brown clearly love the little hedgehog and are informed and experienced. They also recommend Dennis Kelsey-Wood's titles: African Pygmy Hedgehogs As Your New Pet, and Hedgehogs Today. Breed if you must, use their list of resources, but the hedgie I own, love, and obtained through rescue should not have even been in the pet store; this book introduced me (fast) to the proper care of the hedgehog. If you add a HH to your happy home, you will probably end up maintaining mealworms in your 'frig ; afterall, HHs are insectivores and need "variety". Hedgies are grand (and sharp) (and nocturnal); try to be sure they are a right choice for you and your lifestyle.
