Common Habitats:
In the wild, hedgehogs are typically found in woodlands, grasslands, meadows, and hedgerows. They prefer areas with plenty of ground cover, like shrubs or leaf piles, where they can forage safely and nest. Pet hedgehogs, on the other hand, thrive in quiet, temperature-controlled indoor environments with soft bedding and plenty of room to explore.

Preferred Foods:
Hedgehogs are insectivores and enjoy a varied diet. Their favorites include:

• Insects (like crickets, mealworms, and beetles)

• High-quality hedgehog or cat food

• Fruits and vegetables (in moderation—avoid anything too sugary or acidic)

• Cooked meats (small amounts of plain chicken or turkey as treats)

Fresh water should always be available, and treats should be limited to keep them healthy and active.
