Location: Reading
Age: 1 year 3 months
Species: African Pygmy Hedgehog
About: Joined Happy Quills 23/12/24. Loves his wheel and sitting on your shoulder like a parrot. Likes to be held, but not so keen on stroking (his foster carer is working on this). Not a fan of bugs, doesnt like to be interupted eating or being woken before 9pm. Gets very enthusatic about licking, so be careful of those finger nips. Tries it on with his huffiness, so more suited to a confident/experienced owner
Suitable for: Confident or experienced owner

Age: Estimated 1-2 years old

About: Joined Happy Quills 11/1/25. He is a teeny 280g, so his foster carer is trying to fatten him up. He is also suffering dry skin which they are working on. Age not known, looking at variety of factors we estimate over 1 but no older than 2. Very friendly and trusting little guy. Due to weight and skin issues Hedgy will be under observation longer than the normal two week period.

About: Joined Happy Quills 11/2/25. Polly is underweight at 290g due to dental issues, namely gingivitis, plus she has a lump in her mouth that is getting checked out by the vet on 21/2/25 after she has put on a bit of weight. She is currently on antibiotics and painkillers until her next appointment for a biopsy. Once we have vet advise we will be able to assess the next steps with Polly. Will not be available for some time/may end up permanent. Very friendly little girl.
