u can read some info from 1st page
as for me :
1. I used wood shaving snowflake.. i think it's for hamster too
2. I'm not sure bout whiskas.. but normally we gave our hedgie RC baby cat food...
3. Mine.. not sure whether he really know where to poo or not -.- but mostly when he poo I will move his shit to the spot I wan him to poo or pee... but mine seems ignore it... sometimes he poo on the right place but sometimes he even pee in his food... so i need to check n change the food..
4. most ppl use toyogo box but not me xD toyogo box is enuf ^.^

Thx alot...i've been researching bout it for a while now...is the cat food pricey?..btw is the hamster wheel ok??..im afraid if the wheel fall on top of hedgie and risk injuring him... ..im thinking of buying a pair...

currently i fed my Ken Ken RC baby food 34 cuz he's still 2 months old... this is is more expensive. 1 pack cost RM 15 but when ur hedgie grew bigger then u can fed him RC cat food the next round.. cost cheaper.

about the wheel.. mine is not the hamster's wheel cuz i dun think it's enuf for my baby... he's too fat!!
mine is around 12 inch and mostly hedgie's owner will buy wheel according to that measure...
and the most important thing... dun put them together!!!
if u planning to buy pair.. then u should save more money to buy another cage cuz hedgie wont share their cage wif others.
May I ask why u wan to buy pair of them? u intend to breed them?

Avoid Whiskas, only buy good quality cat food

Whiskas is bad. If you want to feed cheap foods and use cheap products, then better NOT get a hedgehog.....

I don't see their food as pricey.... Rm11 to Rm15 a month... is that pricey? Try feeding a cat on Royal Canin.... the bill is much higher than RM15 a month.....

LOL if this for me... then I no offence xD
I mean expensive is RC baby cat food for below 1 years n 2 years+ got diff price. The one that I fed now is pricey because the food smaller n it's easy to bite since my hedgie is still small.. lol

I'm not saying the RC food is too expensive la... -.-

No lah... not for you..... is for demonicbeing.... whiskas is one of the cheapest and worst quality of catfood.... so.... if he finds other catfood expensive, then better not keep a hedgehog.... that's what I meant.... When we keep a pet, we should not look for the cheapest.... if cannot afford then better not keep. In the end, cheap stuff can damage the animal's health.....

He still needs research.... Really not enough. Hedgehogs cannot use hamster wheels as it is only 6.5 inches to 8 inches. Also hedgehogs cannot keep in pairs unless he keeps separately......

His quote:


The 1st page already listed as Whiskas and Purina being unsuitable food for hedgehogs.

he need to do more homework la....
there's alot of stuff for hedgehogs that he needs to know.. this not road side dog take home can help u finish ur leftover foods. the 1st thing i know through reading is the food and beding but for him he don read but ask.. sighs.. wan buy pet research in it 1st plz ....

haha...im just asking cause i cant seem s to find rc cat food at the supermarket around my house...yeah i noe i cant keep them in the same place..but theres 1 breeder told me to keep them at diffferent cage but allow them to see each other....dunno y...sorry if my research is not enuff...back to page 1 i guess....sorry

supermarket? wiskars(dunno how to spell but u all know it) got alot but not RC ...go to a pet shop .. most pet shop have RC or origen or acana.
its okay to ask but do some homework 1st ... hao wrote so much on 1st page d mar ....
go do homework

actually im confuse what rc is until i realise it is royal canin....thats y i ask is whiskas is ok...so everything is ok now..thx

You should NEVER EVER EVER EVER feed Whiskas or Friskies to your hedgehog unless you want to damage their growth and life. Especially Whiskas, which is so full of colouring, corn, salt and by products, might as well feed corn flakes to you hedgehog, healthier than those 2 brands.(Not literally) You won't find RC in supermarkets. Go to pet shops that sell dogs and cats or a pet boutique. I recommend PetsPeople in Plaza Damas, Sri Hartamas. They have both RC and Orijen.

A friend of mine fed a stray kitten Whiskas and the kitten got very colourful diarrhoea.

is it ok to put ur hedgie at the lawn for a while...ofcourse with me by his side la...

Ok as long as not kena direct sunlight or extreme coldness during the night. Best condition is to put your hedgie indoors. COz not a single of my hedgie died for more than a year, but my friends who put his hedgie outside for few days oso die.

Juz got my hedgie....name him momo...hahaha..very happy!!...
