| I totally agree. Hedgehogs are totally awesome. I recently got one (the week before last actually) They are amazing pets, but they are a lot of work. I have to clean out her food and water bowls once or twice every day, and she needs her cage to be cleaned up once or twice a week. She enjoys her running wheel, but she actually favors her running ball, because she can explore and she knows that she is safe in it (although some hedgehogs do not enjoy running balls as they feel trapped). Also some hedgehogs can be litter trained, but my little girl (her name is Thistle by the way) does not. she goes basically wherever she currently is, although she seems to think her running wheel doubles as a toilet! As I said hedgehogs are a lot of work, but it's totally worth it. I suggest proving to your parents that you are responsible enough by pet sitting if you can, or perhaps working extra hard on other responsibilities around the house. Anyway I hope that helps, if you have any questions just write me :)
