What kind of toys do hedgehogs like?
– Tunnels and hiding spots: Hedgehogs enjoy having a place to hide and explore, so tunnels and hiding spots can be a great addition to their toy collection. These can be made from a variety of materials, including cardboard tubes, plastic containers, or even cloth.
– Exercise wheels: Hedgehogs are active creatures that enjoy running and exploring, so an exercise wheel can be a great way to keep them entertained. Make sure to choose a wheel that is safe and appropriate for hedgehogs, with a solid surface and no gaps that they can get their feet caught in.
– Foraging toys: Hedgehogs enjoy using their sense of smell and taste to find food, so foraging toys can be a great way to keep them entertained. These toys can be as simple as a paper towel roll filled with treats, or as complex as a puzzle feeder that dispenses food when the hedgehog solves a challenge.
– Fleece toys: Hedgehogs enjoy soft and cozy textures, so fleece toys can be a great addition to their toy collection. You can make these yourself using scraps of fleece fabric or purchase pre-made fleece toys.
When selecting toys for your hedgehog, it is important to choose options that are safe, non-toxic, and free from any sharp edges or small parts that they could swallow. With a little creativity and the right supplies, you can create a fun and stimulating toy collection for your pet hedgehog.
What do you put in a hedgehog dig box?

Toys: Wheels, balls, and other toys to encourage physical activity and exploration.
