Honestly, any type of second hand smoke can be harmful to any creature. But if your brother is willing to 'share' the second hand smoke with his roommate, then I don't think its going to be a great problem. Just make sure the windows are open with good ventilation in the room, just don't turn the room into a "Dutch Oven"

If he really cares about second hand smoke, he should move out or find a new roommate.

Totally agree with you. Haha even human can die coz of it

You can find them at ABC Pet Shop in Ipoh

Is hedgehog requires more care and budget compare to Guinea Pigs??

Cheaper compared to guinea pigs. Hedgehog is a low maintenance pet. As far as I know, guinea pigs must live in pairs - so double the expenses. Although hedgehog is solitude kind of pet, you still need to give it some of your time in a day. For it to just bond and 'open up' to you.

They are also prone to a few diseases. Some of them might be healthy till the day they pass on because of old age, but you never know. Read more information on them because there are only a few vets that know a little about hedgehog here, so you gotta know on your own too.

If after reading up and you still decide to have one, then buy one from a reputable breeder. Don't buy from pet shop.

Sorry for the long reply to your question. Just felt that you need to know it still needs care although not as much as guinea pigs and stuff.

I had a guinea piggy princessa call Yuki whom passed away

And I wasn't ready to adopt another baby back yet and now I am thinking of getting one new baby. Is hedgehog ok with dogs?

I'm really sorry to hear that

Don't have firsthand experience so I can't tell >< Though as long as they are separated, should be alright. If that dog stays with you and you pat it, you must remember to wash your hand before handling the hedgehog. Especially if you trying to bond with it, because the scent will confuse the hedgehog (what I read from the net). Of course if they are around each other, it must be supervised.

I see

Let me think bout it

Dogs will be curious about the hedgehog. Usually the dog meant no harm, just being curious n playful.
But to the hedgehog, it's terrifying cos the dog is like way bigger!

Try imagine a giant trying to sniff u and don't speak ur language.
How would that feel?

It puts tremendous amount of pressure to the hedgehog.
But u can do proper introduction for both of them, and it will be fine.

I can imagine my 2 Shih Tzu keep sniffing it

But I can't imagine my Golden Retriever next to it

Woah o.o lotsa pets you have

My friends did tease me that if I have the budgets and spaces, I can open a petting zoo.

Hi all,
New hedgie owner here.

I was wondering, what bedding do most ppl use for hedgie?
Is flannel cloths (like https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=435466513195404) better or pellet beddings/paper beddings?

I'm currently using homefriends paper bedding.
