HI. will be getting my hedgehog soon, but im already researching and finding everything that i needed for the new baby~
questions. hope that someone will answer them for me.
for the cloth used for housing base, i read that many uses "fleece". can i know where can i get fleece in malaysia? currently residing in ipoh. also if possible, can i know what is the chinese word/name for "fleece" material. tried to find them in pasar malam but nobody seems to know.
2nd question. Other than fleece, is there any other material that i can use for hedgehog??? 100% cotton maybe? or those bath towels (will cut them small)? hope that there are another material alternative.
3rd, how do u wash the material chosen? do u wash it just like any other normal clothings? use dynamo and such such???? are they sensitive to the detergent smell? research says that they are very sensitive to smell...
4th. As a girl, i frequently uses body lotion on my body. does hedgehog like it? can i make them used to my lotion smell??? i read previously someone used oilment on their hand and hold the hedgehog, and the hedgehog bite its own legs because of the oilment smell left on his leg.
Hope that someone can enlighten me on the matters above as i would like to prepare the best for my pet.
since no one replied, and also sorry for the slow answer as i'm not much aware of things here anymore unless someone tagged me. simple answer is just use your unused clothes. but be sure not lines were undone later it gets tangled on its legs.
yes, try not to use dynamo or detergent, just use close to boiling water and soak the mat (cloth) in the bucket wash wash then dry under sun like all other clothes. smelly then change, better than hurting its nose.
before and after handling them also need to wash hands throughly, meaning no lotion especially if they're babies cus they wont know what is that and can get naughty curious. if adult still okay cus they might know what's what.
conclusion: SO, just to be safe, try not to do any of those stated by urself. just use normal clothes for their mats, or better yet just newspaper as they poop like random no. of times per day. if anything just quote my reply and ask again
