Badger |
Sex: Male
Age: 2.5 years Experience needed: Some exp preferred but not required Badger is a two and a half year old dark male with a very heavy dark mask. He has a good temperament. He tends to only ball up when he is first woken up or grabbed (as pretty much all hedgies do). He then relaxes very quickly and is quite social and easy to handle. He loves running on an exercise wheel and is quite active in his cage, but he can also be chill and just snuggle in your lap. He has a favorite little fabric hide-away that we will send with him to his new home. He is older (the average hedgehog lives around 4 years). We strongly advise against choosing an older rescue just to get a cheaper pet, as many hedgies begin requiring veterinary help in the last year or two of their lives. Those bills come in a lot sooner with a hedgie Badger's age. As of now, he appears perfectly healthy (but is a little on the thin side so his adopter should be generous with kibble and treats). Time does catch up to all critters though, so anyone adopting Badger should be willing and able to tackle any veterinary issues that pop up as he ages. His adoption fee is 100.
