When did you get the hedgehog? As a baby? What does she eat? Is she hard to take care of? Is she the only one?

yup i got her from a breeder as a baby. no they're not hard to take care of. she lives in a large rabbit cage with a very large running wheel, aspen bedding, a fleece covered igloo as a house, and a lot of toys. they eat cat food actually, well a mixture of various cat foods and at least one kitten food (commercial hedgehog foods are full of junk and are terrible for them). i also give her meal worms as a treat, as well as apple slices. other than play time, they need their cages spot cleaned daily and the wheel cleaned (running makes them poop - no kidding), water changed (they use water bottles that you would use for a gerbil or hamster), food, and a bath every other week with oatmeal (very dry skin), her bath time is also when i trim her nails. she's my only one, but i would like to get another when i have more space. she's just too cute.
